Someone please help! I canot connect to my dbox to flash new image.
I'm doing everything i used to do but cannot connect. Irecently changed the image to Lincsat and it doesn't work properly. any advice?
 
what is your link speed/duplex mode setting ? if it is set to 100 it will not connect change to 10
 
have you set your ip address correctly in your pc....ie dbox ip 192.168.1.100
then pc should beat least one number different ...ie 192.168.1.101
 
What cables do you have,

xover - no router required

rj45

serial

Suggest using Flashfxp

but there are numerous ways depending on what cable(s) your going to use and what state the box is in right now.

Also suggest putting commando 12 image on it.

Let us know what you want to do.

Hey

Right first off please ensure that your using a cross over cable, next also ensure that your connection speed is set @ 10 half duplex.

Next we need to get the ip details from your dbox please take note of the ip,default gateway and DNS addresses.

Next you want to set your NIC settings to one number above or below the ip address shown on your dbox and also set the default gateway and DNS addresses as seen on the dbox menu, the subnet will auto complete.

once all that is done your going to need to open IFA username needs to be root password will be dbox or dbox2 port needs to be 21

after all that is done you should be all set - if your not give us a shout with any error msgs you are getting or any further details
 
Guess we should ask to if he can see anything such as network addy etc given that the image on the box is not working. If not then he needs to let us know as there are other ways to get around that.
 
Jump straight to IFA portable, saves time messing with IP's and such
