Can't access DM500 with Vista(WiFi)

john_gringo

Hallo all.
I am a new dream-box user and I have some problems.
I have Vista connected with Thomson router wireless and an XP connected with a wire at the same router ETH1. DM500 is connected at the same router ETH2

1. As i am entering DM ip to IE7 on Vista conf. it asking for a U/N and Pass, after that it looks like searching but nothing happens. At the same time on XP conf. everything working fine.
I tried to disable firewall but still the same.
DCC also can not FTP DM.

2. On the same laptop with Vista I installed Ubuntu It connect with DM but how can I edit the box like DCC? Is there a similar program or other way to do it?
I don't know anything about Linux but I am ready to learn :-)

Regards

Finaly I found the problem by myself.
I did a firmware update to my router and everything is perfect.
Router: Speedtouch 585v6 Wireless.

Glad you got sorted, it is well documented that a router with non Vista approved firmware, when accessed by a Vista PC/laptop will stop you doing the most basic of things as Vista plugs every hole/route/channel it can find whether needed or not.
