I am having a tough time understanding how Dreambox and its components work. I see guides and idiot guides, but I never found anything that explains everything in detail.
I would be very happy with an Idiot's guide if I were to begin from scratch but thats not the case.
I purchased a whole setup from a local shop. This included a DM500, a dish with 3 LNBs and a LAN cable to my ADSL router. This receiver was pre-configured and all he did was connect everything and it worked fine.
One fine day I discover that only FTA channels are coming up and no paid channels. I tried calling the shop for 2 days, no answer. Shop is closed down.
After a lot of reading, what I can understand is:
There is something called CCcam 1.7.1 installed. I see this when I press the blue button and also when powering on. This CCcam is either configured to access a shared card over the internet or to automatically update keys over the internet. If this is correct, I need to find out how this CCcam is configured.
Now the questions:
1. First of all, am I correct in my assumptions?
2. How do configure/edit CCcam 1.7.1?
3. I never had the password for accessing the box and the default does not work. I will try guessing, but if it fails, how do I reset the password??
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
