putty problem
Hi,
i messed up my box doing a flash and im stuck i booting.Ive tried a serial link to the ''ttl pins'' on the motherboard but when i connect with putty all i get is loads of random characters on the screen.Ive tried all the different options under translate in putty but no good.Ive swapped the tx rx as well. Is my box 'cooked'.
Thanks.

..ok, got my TTL converter, followed all steps and ...box is up and running 
btw, DO NOT TRY RESTORE FROM COMPUTER CONNECTED TO ROUTER BY WIRELESS ... IT WONT WORK, mean TFTP server wont

I have problems getting the IP address for my Azbox.
My Rooter Ip is 198.162.2.x my Pc ip is 192.168.2.x,but every time i ping my Azbox at 192.168.2.x in the to 200 random i get no reply.But soon as i use Ip at 192.168.1.x random up to 200,i get a reply,but later in the procees putty tell's me Ip don't match.help Please Thank's

In your router/modem RESERVE a local home network IP address for your AZ (and any other device), so each IP address of each device is connected to its unique MAC address. Every router has that function, to my knowledge...
In that case you will know which address it is, every time.
Switch off DHCP, that is...
If not, use specific SW (Network mappers/IP scanners?) to find out which devices are allocated which IP addresses...
Good luck!

[LIST]
[*]Scans network in a matter of seconds
[*]Detects any network devices, including Wi-Fi routers and wireless devices
[*]Scans ports and finds HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and shared folders
[*]Lets you connect to PCs running [URL="http://www.radmin.com/products/radmin/"]Radmin Server[/URL] with one click
[*]Allows you to shut down computers remotely
[*]Supports Wake-On-Lan
[*]Favorites list for easy network management
[*]Export to HTML or CSV
[*]Easy and user-friendly interface

[B]Advanced IP Scanner Key Features:[/B]
[B]Fast network scanning[/B]
With Advanced IP Scanner, you can scan hundreds of IP addresses simultaneously at high speed. The software scans ports of network computers and finds HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and shared folders. Scan your network (including Wi-Fi network) to get more information about all connected devices including computers' names and MAC-addresses. [B]Integration with [URL="http://www.radmin.com/products/radmin/"]Radmin remote access software[/URL][/B]
Advanced IP Scanner and [URL="http://www.radmin.com/products/radmin/"]Radmin remote control[/URL] software are deeply integrated. IP Scanner lets you scan your network, find all computers running Radmin Server, and connect to any one of them with one click. The free Radmin Viewer needs to be installed on your PC for you to access a remote machine running Radmin Server. With [URL="http://www.radmin.com/products/radmin/"]Radmin[/URL], you can access the remote PC in Full Control, File Transfer, and Telnet modes. [B]Remote PC Shutdown[/B]
This shuts down any remote machine or group of machines running a Windows operating system. You can use your default access rights or specify a login and password for shutdown. This feature is very handy for system administrators since it enables all computers in a customized list to be turned off in a single operation at the end of the working day. [B]Wake-On-LAN[/B]
You can wake any machine or group of machines remotely using Advanced IP Scanner if the machines' network cards support the "Wake-On-LAN" feature. [B]Simple and user-friendly interface[/B]
Advanced IP Scanner has a simple, user-friendly interface. For simpler batch operations, it lets you save a list of computers to be scanned in a Favorites list. Advanced IP Scanner will automatically load your Favorites at startup. You then can choose whether to scan your entire network or just the computers in the Favorites list.[URL="http://www.advanced-ip-scanner.com/download/ipscan22.exe"]Download

Hello,
My AZBOX HD PREMIUM + got stuck on booting after trying to restore the original firmware after upgrading kernel and installing a new image.
To recover, I used USB connection and used putty following procedure but when hitting CTRL+C, I can not get to terminate. Putty continue to display all the way.
I used win xp & win 7 both 32-bit & 64-bit with all reslts the same (CAN'T CTRL +C) and the box is stuck on booting forever. What can I do???

had the same mate, try to hit CRTL+C a second after you get something on putty screen an repeat it good few times to the end... got lucky on 10 or 12 time
)so ... good luck
no luck what so ever, I can't get putty to terminate at CTRL+C

I am worried about the power supply (fail), but all lights are on and all power seems ok.

hiya mate, that might be psu problem then, if you have multimeter (voltmeter) check voltage on PSU pins as per picture (thanks to KGD Team)
..system board on the left, psu board on the right
and GOOD LUCK MATE

Thanks mate for the support. I have a voltmeter but I do not know how to check the psu.
Can you show me how and if there is a link to where to do that with drawings or photo's.
----------------
I noticed that when I turn the receiver on, the cooling fan starts and stops immediately. the front led lights showing "BOOTING" is normally working. Network lights in the back is also normal.
------------
I really appreciate it.

hi,
on the picture above you have all what you need,
1. unplug ribbon cable which connecting PCU board with receiver board
2. power PSU up (switch on)
3. using voltmeter check voltage between pins :
8 (ground) and 9, 7, 4,3,2,1 and compare it with these on the pic...
if is major difference there - more than 0.3V thats mean its PSU problem
IMPORTANT!!!!
DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT PINS DURING CHECK THIS MAY BLOW PSU DEAD
thats it

Thanks again stuff.hunter for following up and helping.
It seems that the power supply is different than the one posted. All I see is a four wire connection from psu to the motherboard.
I am eliminating the PSU being damaged. cooling fan usually restart after booting.
I will post the MB of this receiver model (look at the upper right corner where the wiring of the PSU.
-------------
Again I can not get it to respond to the CTRL+C.?
What will be my next step? if I may ask
