    Default Still waiting for flashing info?

    I tried this and it didn't work, I have a blue screen before this it was screeching static, and now nothing. I doesn't seem to even respond to the remote you only hear the clicking sound when you try the reset button.

    Can't belive you didn' found an utility called "FlashWizard"; is fast indeed, reliable, tested by me and used many times (after headackes due to using Dreamup); works by LAN; you can fast backup your image first and flash another in a couple of minutes. First set connection param (IP, user, passw); use fixed IP in your DM as I did.
    Tested on my DM500-s (genuine).

    FLASHWIZARD_6_3.zip

    PM: Italian made. Unzip, open .exe file; don't need install.
    Can't be anything faster in my opinion.
    Hope it helps!

    Default "FlashWizard"

    Hi, I am am newbe but I think null modem cable route is easier. If "FlashWizard" method is easier somebody should do a step by step guide please.

    got to the flash page, put the nfi file in and pressed flash, nothing is happening, do i need to put a different cable in or just do it from the router?
