Well after retesting I seem to be able to connect to internet through DB and also access the DB from my PC, in fact I'm not sure if there is anything I can't do. Its just that when I click test in the communications setup the IP and Netmask are red and at the bottom is written network setup is...

Whilst I appreciate that zonealarms and some free antivirus programs are excellent. I like the convenience of having it all in one. Anyway, I have added the dreambox IP as a trusted address but still it doesn't network unless I turn off the firewall. I thought maybe adding the port number? Does...

I am trying to network my DM500s with my PC. However Mcafee security center firewal seems to be blocking it. The DB is flashe with Gemini 4.60 DM500 MaxVar and has cccam 2.0.10. When I turn off the firewall and test it in the communication setup all is fine but when the firewall is on IP and...

I apologise in advance if this is posted in the wrong section, but wasn't sure where to put it. I currently have a satellite dish outside of my bedroom window on a flat roof and would like to add an outside aerial. Is it possible to use the current coax cable that the dish uses or do I need to...

Thanks Robbo, will consider this option although I would prefer not to have to buy this if cheaper option is available(like a regular network cable if thats what I need).

Yes it is a crossover cable between DB and laptop. Should I use a normal network cable then? ICS is enabled

I connect to the internet through my laptop which is connected to my mobile phone by usb. I have no problems connecting to the net from the laptop but can't connect dreambox to internet via using network cable which is conected to my laptop as I don't use a router.

Hi, I connect to the internet on my laptop using my UMTS mobile phone as ADSL is not available in the small town in Italy where I live. If you are not familiar with UMTS, this is a high speed dial up connection. Unfortunately my knowledge of networking is almost zero although I am quite computer...

That sounds like a great idea. I'll start a new thread. Thanks for all the help given.

Should I have a cccam cfg file in the keys folder? I don't have one.

cccam is pid#205 status s time 0 not sure how to telnet into box or find how much space is left in / var

I have been installing cccam from a tar.gz file and ftping it to the tmp folder and then doing a manual install via the blue panel. I think thats correct

Yes I see the image but when I select the options cccam is not detected. I have tried various versions of cccam too. This could be where my problems are coming from.

Thanks MHKU, don't have the card here right now as it's sitting in a friends digibox(just in case). In regard to installing the cccaminfo plugin. Do I just FTP the various files in the zip file to the folders of the same name on the DB i.e nabident.inf to var/etc folder, and change permissions...

Well i've now tried various versions of Gemini combined with various versions of cccam and none have worked. Could it be that the card is not being read? Is there a way to check this?
