[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 834473, member: 323322"] Well it's nearly right: RS232 cable needs to be a Null Modem variant and it also will only work when connected to an old style Serial Port on a PC. Serial to USB etc adapters do not work in this application. Also, I assume all you did was use it as supplied. so I'm not too keen on the implication of what they are saying - and they also claim it was supplied with "all FTA Channels", whatever they actually mean by that! And when bricked, the most common system is a Boot-Loop whereby it gets to 100, fails to go to splash-screen, then starts again - and again -and again. That said, I'm glad they will send you back a working box (but check your Serial number so you can tell if it's been reflashed or replaced!) [/QUOTE]
