You can get the latest keys by installing BIGMAQ toolbar (google that to find it).

To put them in manually, look here:

Here's how to update the D-Box2 with Remote

Reboot means switching it off and back-on (as in the same as computer terminology!!!!)

i cant seem to get my d-box to connect to the pc, is it possible to update the files via remote, or am i wasting my time trying?

Good call pal - I own Eurovox and have learned how to do mine and mates' (9 so far in4 different versions). Now learning of DBox so can 'fix' my cousin's boyfriend's DBox which box I've only ever manually updated so far. If you can read and find techwatch, must be able to read some more. The DBox owner is not computer-literate so I'll have a go at unknown DBox and come here when I F-up and need genuine help maybe.

Need help before the missus kills me

Dbox2 has been working fine since about october, occasionally freezes but pulling the plug for a bit out always worked, today it didnt.

Most channels were blank apart from bbc, itv etc.

I done a service scan and now no channels at all are working.

I have Sportster 2.0, the image was already flashed on the box when i bought it.

Do i need to flash a new image on to it? If so how do i do it, not the best at these things.

i can't access this link. is there some reason for this? as i'm really hoping to get my dbox working again

p.s. this is a crackin site. i found out a few weeks back how to sort it by changing the keys using the BigMAQ
