I want to use my Dm500 in my caravan so i don't miss any football while away. All the caravan sites i go on these days have wifi, so my question is, if i receive the WiFi on my mac (It also duel boots as vista pc if required) can i share this connection with a ethernet lead to my dm500, so i can connect to my server back home.
Sharing my Mac wireless connection to dm500

In short, yes.
Look into either 'Internet Connection Sharing' or bridging network connections. It should be easy enough to find a how to on it.

if you bridge the wifi device to RJ45 , you will get the same network configuration on the dreambox,means that you will keep same configuration on the dreambox.
the sharing wifi device will give the rj45 device ip adress 192.168.0.1 means you may have to regonfigure your dreambox.
it is better to bridge the connection
