    do all the basics like av settings and set a fixed ip address up by doing it manually , turning off dhcp

    then try logging in using flashfxp , dreamboxedit v3 ( or later ) using enigma 2 , and also dcc

    then download the latest cajton E2 settings from here and load them into the box using dbedit

    then start connecting to the server and load cccam , newcs etc

    that way you should be able to set the settings and actually get some pictures on screen , like bbcHD , itvHD , bbc1 etc

    once its getting satellites and free channels you can move on

    goodmorning Spider....

    Ive downloaded Dreambox edit...Dcc... E2..D800 settings.. but i haven't a clue what Echelon meant by flashfxp??? or were to look for it!..

    Ive now taken the DB back to Strandman and we have plugged it in via scart..done the basic set up..although it says Tuner A:Alps BSBE2 (DVB-S2)..nothing connected..if i click on configuration mode it crashes to a green screen and re-boots..I don't suppose you could take us through step by step from here please mate...

    why the strandman was stranded..

    can i first express my thanks and gratitude to all you guys who tried your best to help me solve the problem with my dreambox 800 hd pvr.. i would like to give special thanks to echelon sonic and spider...
    i tried everything that was suggested to, but nothing seemed to work, i even thought that the dm was a clone. i finally contacted multimedia, and the end result is that the dreambox was sent back to a dreambox rep in the u k. and it was tested and although i bought new, it was in fact a faulty dreambox. the good thing that has come out of it. is that i now know what i'm doing.(hopefully). once again many many thanks for putting up with me,and for all the sound advice. kind regards.
    alan the happy strandman..
