[QUOTE="kebabinho, post: 102726, member: 184856"] Keys are used to 'unlock the encrption of certain channels'. There a re different encryptions so there are also different keys. The service providers change the keys every so often to try to beat illegal viewers. The keys soon become availble for users to enter into there boxes via the remote. Firmware is the software on the main chip of your sat box. This will hold the keys to allow the unlocking of certain encryptions. meaning you wont have to input the keys via your remote control. As the keys change you will need to change the keys held in the firmware by ' flashing the chip' with the new firmware once it becomes available. you do this by connecting your box via the d-pin socket on the back of the box to you seriel socket of your pc. you connec them using an RS232 cable which can be bought from most electrical/computer shops. i had a quick scan around for some firmware but i couldnt find any mention of your box. maybe check some fo the links from this board and ask around in some forums [/QUOTE]
