Could somebody please advise me on networking a dreambox 5620s to a PC (I have a router with ip 192.168.2. another digit x). My PC's ip on my wirelss network 192.162.2.another digit y.
I have set my dreambox ip to 192.168.2.4 and the name server and gateway to my router's ip, although I am not using it. I am connecting my PC direct to the dreambox.
I tried using the dreamup and dream control centre software and got the message, network not ok.
Also, the 2 lights (green and yellow) on my PC's rj45 port does not light up when I connect the dreambox to my PC. The lights on my rj45 port on my laptop also does not light up (I suspect the dreambox is not 'talking' to my pc)
Please advise.
I could flash the box using a null modem cable.
