HI I am new to this ..I bought a dreambox .. i connected it ... it only has the freeview ... I want watch Sky Movies and Sentanta Channel. But I don't know how to update the keys.

I manage to setup the IP onto the dreambox and connect it to the pc via the router and get the FLASHFXP connected.

I need a guide to update the keys step by step .. Please help

thanks

Many thanks, I'll have a good read and attempt to ftp the rom fix to the box. Really new to all this but I did manage to flash an image to the thing just not sure of what I need to do to get all channels, I'll follow your advice and hope I manage.
I can't thank you enough for the info.

Hi m8,
I use the DCC ftp I can see both the box directories and my pc directories, but when I want to transfer a new bin directory in the /var it says: cannot make a new directory. Also when I use telnet and go to /var I don't know how to create a new directory where I could send files into.

And another thing is: how I can add mgcamd to my DM800 HD?

In my eagerness to get on board with the DK image I flashed with dreamup but forgot to back up my cam and emulator. Question: Do I need a specific Cam and Emu to work with DK_V1 or will any cam & emu suffice . I know that instructions exist on the site but could one of you good people point me in the right direction.
Its a Dreambox500c I am trying to sort out
Thanks in anticipation........

........Late breaking news all sorted Start by reading the Guides & tutorials and follow them to the letter.
Thanks go to Shady77 for the Total Spoonfed Newbies guide for putting me on the right track
Thanks to Thommo and Devilfish for their hard work that Shady collimated.

Hi

I don't have a router and am connecting direct using a crossover cable (it definitely is one, just bought it!) but am getting no connection.

I'm assuming this is because I am not connected to the internet but as I only have one ethernet port, I can't do this as the crossover cable is in there. What should I do?

TIA
