hey guys, i have searched few various threads for the last four hours and still have no luck in fixing my dbox.
its stuck on the loading kernel screen....and no picture shows on tv, so cannot access any menu settings. i have tried ftp, but it cannot connect to the dbox either
i have tried loads of different versions of ifa to flash a new image. my computer is running vista and i have tried the latest ifa, but it still does not work.
i have done the following steps
"Turn off windows firewall
Disable wireless network connection
Rename image file mtd3.img and store it in C:\
set Local Area Connection network IP to 192.168.0.201
( IFA automatically sets dbox IP to 192.168.0.202 )
configure Local Area Connection link speed / duplex mode to 10Mbps / half duplex
open IFA
select image for flashing ( mtd3.img from C:\ )
select network device ( there should only be one available )
switch dbox on
press start
a dialogue box pops up
switch dbox off
click ok
switch box on
flashing should begin
progress is indicated on LCD ( IFA image on TV screen )
Fertig and smiley faces on LCD means success
disconnect network
off then on at the mains"
i have tried pinging the dbox, says request timed out...
but it still doesnt work, i dont have a null cable modem.. and am using a cross over cable..i have managed to flash before using ifa, but this time it nothing seems to work...
can anyone advise? or do you think my box may need replacing....
