Starview 7 & Carling-1.2ups firmware

Can someone help me please ...

I recieved a starview 7 this morning, downloaded the firmware but the box doesnt read the file ... "unknown upgrade file" can anyone help?

Ok, it was my memory stick. I tried a different stick & it worked (i think!)
I followed the procedure for the starview 6 but without inserting the numbers 8989. This was because i didnt have the option to set the code on the accessory page.
Its working tho

I cant get the box to work via a splitter tho, has anyone got this to work with a splitter?

hi mate,

is your sv7 working properly like it should?

It works fine without the splitter, im off to get another one later

SO YOU CAN SEEL ALL THE $ CHANNELS?

Yeah, apart from theHD channels of course

THATS COOL, MY BOX IS FINE, EXCEPT NO $ CHANNELS WHAT SO EVER.

AT BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN IT SAYS @NOT CONNECTED@


HOW SHOULD I HOOK IT UP TO THE NET?

THANKS

Have you tried hooking it up directly with an ethernet cable?

YES MATE, TRIED THE ETHERNET CABLE DIRECT FROM ROUTER, INTO THE JACK POINT, JACKPOINT INTO SV7.

PS - WITH MY BOX I RCVD MALE/FEMALE PIN CABLE......WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS?

I think that cable is for better access to your box your lan connection, you dont have to use it but i find it easier to get to

Is your dvb cable connected & fully fuctioning?
Have you scanned the channels?

DVB CABLE IS CONNECTED, I HAVE ALL THE REGULAR FTA CHANNELS BB*1
IT*1 BB* NEWS, ETC

please knock off the caps as you are shouting

ok mate, not had any joy with this sv7, has anyone got everything working on this???

[quote="RIMSNTYRES"]ok mate, not had any joy with this sv7, has anyone got everything working on this??

the short cable you received plugs into the back of your sv7 and the eternet cable is connected from your router to the short cable on the box it must be switched on when you are using the box and the box will not scan unless the eternet cable is connected

hi, my router is upstairs, therefore i have been using 'vonets wifi bridge'.

the wifi bridge is live but sv7 keeps saying not connected at bottom of screen.

got all the regular channels just not the $ channels.

what firmware is on your box
does it say sv7 on front of unit as sv7 does not have a cat5 lan port.

hi,

sv7 on face of box.

carling 1.02 installed.

all the fta channels nice and clear coming through.

there is a port with pin either side at the back of box. fastened the m/f to this, fastend the phone jack extension to the m/f, fastened the wifi bridge to phone jack point as well as the usb port for power.

this morning i did the following;

factory delete
autoscan 6952
network - ip setup - ustream
emulator - 8989 - everything on

all i get is fta

i ordered a sv6 from wiz, they sent me a sv7, would love to get it working.

*********** GREAT NEWS **************

SV7 FULLY WORKING - POW !

I DID NOT DO ANYTHING EXTRA, JUST LIKE I SAID ABOVE, ALL I GOT WAS THE FTA, SO ALL I DID WAS WATCH FTA FOR NEARLY 2 DAYS & ALL OF A SUDDEN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN IT SAID - CONNECTED - I CHECKED ALL THE $$$ CHANNELS ALL GOOD.

MY ADVICE IS;

LOAD THE FIRMWARE
RUN THE SCAN
USTREAM
EMULATOR - 8989 - ALL TURNED ON
LINK ETHERNET CABLE / WI FI BRIDGE
SIT BACK AND WATCH THE FTA - MY SVY TOOK NEARLY 2 DAYS TO GET CONNECTED TO ALL CHANNELS

Did you get it to work with the wireless bridge?

sometimes units have to be rebooted to connect.

it all came to place when i just left the sv7 on fta channels, turned off the laptop, and the wi fi bridge must have picked up the signal overnight as there was no other traffic.............worked for me and you guys know i was trying all sorts.

sounds like its not connected to internet
