Sorry to be a problem here.

Dont bother responding if you are going to tell me to look at the search cause I cant find what I need, believe me ive been there for an hour already and im starting to get annoyed.

I cant ftp to my dreambox. I have a wireless router setup but I am connected to dreambox via a crossover cable ethernet ip on laptop is 192.168.1.102

on dreambox ip is 192.168.1.101

username root
password dreambox

... why cant I get in? Ive tried smartftp, filezilla etc, but no joy

All I want to do is get the fix working arrghh
 
connect the dreambox to the router then pc / laptop to the router also then you should be able to access it and set the dreambox ip to 192.168.1.250 something alternative then u shud be ok now ur donated u can post in the dreambox section ;)

the laptop / pc direct to dreambox never worked for me
 
Only have one cable so I have connected this to a port on the router, now I try ping 192.168.1.250 and get nothing?

no connect one from laptop / pc to router and one from dreambox in to the router also u can use the internet cable cause u wont need it at the moment and u shud get a ip then go to setup , expert setup , communication setup then u can see what ip is being used .. :)
 
Sorry if this sounds pedantic.

First can you access the web management interface of your wireless router from your laptop using the interface wireless.

If you can access the managment interface ping the dreambox.

If you can't access the management page try connecting the laptop and the dreambox directly with a crossover cable.
 
tHX GUYS Got this working using winSCP.

Appreciate your efforts, do you think its worth doing a step by step guide.

press menu on dm500 remote(have it connected to your tv lol

then setup

expert setup

communication setup

uncheck the dhcp box

change the ip to 192.168.2.6

netmask = 255.255.255.0

nameserver = 192.168.2.1

gateway = 192.168.2.1

put a x in enable network and port is 80

then green button to save

now connect dm500 to the router/pc


open up flashfxp

click on site manager

new site

then you can give it a name, cablebox or whatever

ip address type in 192.168.2.6

put the port as 21

username = root

password = dreambox

click apply

then connect

All being well you should now be connected to the dm500


On the right hand window

goto var

then keys

on the left hand window you find the directory where the fix is saved

just drag the fixed file into the keys directory then and choose to overwrite the file that’s in there

Reboot the dm50
