Hi guys have a dream box up and running using xover cable but have read about null modem being safer??? also rs232/serial?? are these the same cables???

Also what connection i.e. male - female etc. would I need???

And can anyone recommend a good store e-bai, jabs etc. pref not maplins as although convenient there all teenagers and expensive!!! LOL!!!!

And just to put the icing question on the preverbial cake will these serial thingy leads be the same fittings for a dbox2???

Thanks for any help given
sincerly

You will probably need both cables at some point!

Crossover ethernet to flash and ftp but if it fooks up then you'll need the null modem cable to flash it back into life!

Ebay is probably your best bet, 9-pin female to 9-pin female.

And you can use it on the dbox too...same cable!

I'm not really this thick but with people saying serial, nul modem, rs232 I get a little confused LOL: spook :

I'll take a look on e-bay
