hi everyone,
I'm new here so bear with me.
What kind of cable would i ask for to connect my "Box Super" to a laptop with,so i could update the firmware.

And secondly could anyone tell me the service provider code for the staffordshire area.

I need these to reset the channels i am reliably told.

Many thanks
Karac....

Hi and welcome to TechWatch

you will need a null modem cable and if your laptop does not have a 9 pin rs232 port you will also need a rs232 to usb adaptor

Stafford provider is N*L
