  • Hi Lads


    I recently got e-fibre in and got a new modem, the Hauwei F2000. I can connect anything in my house to the modem except my dreambox's.


    I have my box in the sitting room connected using homeplugs. I have actually taken my laptop and connected it successfully on the other end of the homeplugs so the problem is not the homeplugs. All our wireless devices connect without a problem.


    I have a couple of different boxes and have tried them all but still the same.


    Any ideas?

  • Tried that but still no good. If I go into the router it says it's connected but I can't get into the box with DCC and it's not clearing channels.

  • I have a DM500s, a Vu+ Duo and a DM800HD Se. Have tried all 3 and no joy.


    I have a second satellite broadband line coming into the house which connects to the boxes no problem. At the time when we had standard broadband I got a separate satellite line in cos the boxes kept glitching especially in the evenings.


    The F2000 is in PPPoE mode would this have anything to do with the boxes not connecting?

  • check your settings in dcc , the router, hub part ive seen that sometyms if yah are set as router when your a hub it wont connect , also are ports forwarded on new router ? and can you still connect via old new system ?

  • Is there some kind of protocol that the boxes can't work with?


    Everything in the house and office can connect except these boxes.

    Figured it out. I tried another skybox F5s I have there and it works fine. Must be something to do with the commando 15.1 image on the DM500s.


    Has anyone else encountered this and is there a fix for it?


    Is there a better commando image I could use?
