    network
    wlan setup
    adapter settings
    put in you details and press green to save

    then back out to wlan setup and press restart WLAN i would imagine

    Assign a fixed ip address to your box it will probably be under settings / network
    Assign a similar IP address to your pc
    So if you have 192.168.1.10 as your box & 192.168.1.15 as you pc

    Where/How do you do this?

    use the up and down on the remote to select the line you want
    use left and right to edit
    thats what works on mine but I have not saved any data
    there is also 4 coloured keys on bottom
    red cancel /green save

    Download & install dreambox edit
    Assign a fixed ip address to your box it will probably be under settings / network
    Assign a similar IP address to your pc
    So if you have 192.168.1.10 as your box & 192.168.1.15 as you pc
    connect your lan cable between the lan port on your box and the lan port of your pc
    open up dreambox edit
    go to options and put in the IP address that you gave the box
    google what the root password is for the sab enigma image that your using

    in dreamboxedit go to file and ftp download
    this should retrive the current channell list and boquets from your box

    in the right hand side of the program you can drag and drop the channels where you like
    when done save
    go to file upload and send it back to the box
    restart enigma
    and check

    I've been experimenting but to no avail. I'm not the best with this sort of stuff
    .
    This is what I have done:

    DreamBoxEdit Options Box:
    IP address 192.168.0.5
    HTTP 80
    username root
    password dreambox

    press ok

    go to FTP, press Receive Files From Dreambox

    Returns error message: 'There were errors retrieving files from the Dreambox. Check the log for more details.'

    Log says:
    Connecting to ...
    Could not connect to Dremabox. Check IP Address, network settings and status of Dreambox.

    Any suggestions? I'm trying :)

    Hi, quick question - I bought a Sab Combo with Enigma installed - I like the machine so far with the exception of the channels - is it possible to organise the channels on the box? I have googled and can't find an answer. Thanks in advance.

    Hi. Learning this system takes time so don't panic. It has taken me months to get good with the basics. Once you get it your knowledge of how these systems work increases dramatically.

    I just move my channels manually. Select channel and hit menu then add channel to bouquet. I generally put all my channels in the favourite bouquet as I only use saorview and FTA. Do this manually for each one you want. You can move the order by selecting Enable move mode in the menu. Hit menu and select Disable move mode when finished.

    Once you have a go at installing new images you will become a whizz at navigating bouquet order.

    Yeah I know. The one I had previous was difficult enough to get used to when I started with it - I could just change/delete/move channels as I wanted.

    I can't find any of the English stations now to try it!!

    I'll have to find the channels! Thanks for the advice!

    Freshpots hyperion 4 image has a fix for the boot display. Plugins, download plugins and vfd. Don't like open arp, so don't know if the same plugin exists

    just press menu when your on a channel and you will see a load of options for making up your own channel orders, spend a bit of time experimenting with it and it will all make sense. when you get the hang of it you will wonder why you ever doubted your purchase!

    When I press Menu, it just brings me to the main menu but no options for the channel.

    Is that when you're in the EPG?
    If so, I can only see EPG Select/Timer/GuideSwitch/CoolSearch

    An easier way is, run Auto Bouquets, then ...

    From a TV Station, Press OK to list the list of channels. From the channel list, Press MENU. From here, you can then remove, move or do whatever you like with Channels and Bouquets.

    Just one more quick question - when recording say for example TV3, the only station I can view is RTE1 - is there any way around this? With my old box, I could record a channel and watch another.

    I was asked this last night - I don't know what you're talking about - not au fait with this stuff.

    I got the recording stuff sorted out - I recorded a BBC channel - BBC One - and I could still access the Saorview channels and BBC Two and I recorded a UTV channel and the same thing happened. I also recorded BBC and TV3 at the same time. BUT then - for no reason I have lost the Saorview channels - I was watching it around 6 and it started going fuzzy - I could watch RTE2 and the rest but they have all stopped working now.
    I really don't know what is going on.
