That´s ok now.

You have to keep trying the CONNECT/power in the power suply and try to "adjust" your react time considering the error that you have, if you get comunication error you are pluging the power suply to slow, but you should reduce the time between the CONNECT/power in the power suply.

In my case I had to repeat this process about 25 times.

good luck

Just rename to blimg & put it in your jtag folder.

Thank you all guys.
This forum is a dreambox bible..
:-worship

My box is alive again.
And not just alive.. it is considered "genuine" too thanks to the last blimg that bg4vhj uploaded!

Special thanks to philip633 and freon.

Something that may be helpfull:
I had unsuccessfull results with an ibm thinkpad laptop that has a parallel port (bi-directional).
When i connected the jtag cable to a desktop pc with a parallel port (ECP+EPP) it needed only 5 tries.

Guys,

I missed dooms day with my clone box as i was travelling and had my DM500 with me in my suitcase! However i have now changed my MAC address using TELNET and the FORMAT option. My question is, can i now safely use my DM500 without fear...for the time being? Also how do i tell which version of Gemini Project is installed in my clone? When i go to the "About" screen in the menu it says "Software Version: release 4.2.0. 17.12.2007 Chinese language by satfan".

EDIT: when i restart the box i get the old MAC address back......is the TELNET FORMAT option only a temporary MAC change solution? How can i do it perminantly without the JTAG?

Thanx M8's
 
Gemini 4.20

You need to keep the init file in /etc to reset your MAC address on each restart; the other methods discussed may be more permanent but I've not tested any of the MAC address methods.

google translation of removed Chinese:

Since the Chinese people, Chinese啦, Oh, if you modify unreasonable JTAG BOOTLOADER bottom of the MAC address, it is not the way. For you to revise the profile in the system that is only useful if heavy brush system or restore factory settings on the back! !
