I used a new CAT5e crossover cable with RJ45 modular plugs to connect a 7020 Dreambox with a hard disk to a laptop running Windows 7.
I unsuccessfully tried to ping the DM by inputing its IP address 192.168.1.34 in cmd.exe ("Destination host unreachable"). When I tried to connect using Dreambox Control Center V2.96 I got the message "Error 10057 in Send Socket is not connected".
I obtained the IP address by connecting the DM to a router and turning it on holding down the channed down button. However, the communication setup window in expert setup shows the following:
IP: 10.0.0.97 The DHCP box is ticked.
Netmask: 255.0.0.0
Type: LAN (no other options are available)
Nameserver: 192.168.1.1
Gateway: 127.0.0.1
The enable network box is ticked and the port box contains the figure 21.
The IP address cannot be changed if the DHCP box is ticked.
Does anybody have any idea what could be stopping me from getting the connection? Thanks!
