Hi there guys,

Sorry but i 'm missing something re sorting out my arnet box.
Just like all the other boxes mine went down a couple of days ago. I have two boxes a Dbox (which I managed to sort) and the arnet.

I'm reading guys saying you need a cable and some say just check out the bigmaq site, some also saying I need to download firmware.

I would be grateful if someone could give me the idiots guide (I have read through most of these posts but am not really sure what to do )

I appreciate the effort and work you guys have put in so far and also understand you are probably sick to death of peeps like me comin on and asking for a quick fix.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Mate,

Where can I find this update.

I have had my box since October/November last year, and i have never had to do this, so I aint got a clue.

kryptview arnet ADMIN ATTENTION PLEASE
Theres instructions there
Also link to firmware file needed
youll need a null modem cable also to connect to your pc's serial port and the box if your pc has no serial port then you got problems usb-serial converters wont work

Cheers Marc,

So in effect I need to download the firmware and then using this cable (null modem cable) attached to my laptop transfer said firmware to the box - thereafter everything should be cushty???

[Marc]

Yes in reality BUT has your laptop got a 9pin "D" Serial connection? not the 15pin vga that most have but the actual serial connection
