where does it hang (probably at starting neutrino)?
what do you see on your display?

can you still get via ftp or telnet?

if telnet or ftp does not work you have a small problem.
you can fix it but you need a rs232 cable

if you can reach it with telnet you should be able to put in a usb stick with the firmware image and try to write it into flash. The procedure should be almost the same as with hyperterminal and rs232 cable (also somewhere here in the forum).

If telnet works then ftp probably does too, try it out. Then put in an usb stick with the firmware in the receiver and check if it mounts. should be something like /tmp/sda1

I will search the rs232 method and post it here for you, hopefully it helps.

edit:
if the receiver recognises the usb you can try this:

eraseall /dev/mtd2
wait a little bit more
cat /tmp/sda1/mtd2.img >/dev/mtd2

you will erase the actual firmware first so if this does not work your only solution will be the use of a rs232 cable.

for that check this out:

If nothing else work, try this one. Use this guide if you ruined the Box Software via the wrong flashing selection in the Neutrino Menu • PC is connected with Coolstream via Null Modem • Running Terminal SOftware (windows Hyperterm/Putty etc) • 115200 Baud, * Bits, 1 Stop Bit, No Parity , No Handshake • USB Stick that is FAT formated (some smaller USB sticks do not work) • Image must be unpacked on USB Stick Turn on Box and when you get a reply in the screen on the PC press a Key You should see this in the screen: Code: +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ¦ U-Boot 2009.03-svn860 (Jun 03 2009 - 10:20:46) Coolstream HD1 ¦ ¦------------------------------------------------------------------------------¦ ¦ Chipset information ¦ ¦ Vendor: Conexant Type: CX2450x (Nevis) Revision: C0 Fuses: 7FFFC534 ¦ ¦ Option: 00010000 max. clock: 550 MHz Core voltage: high ¦ ¦------------------------------------------------------------------------------¦ ¦ Clock information ¦ ¦ MPG0: 594.000 MHz MPG1: 594.000 MHz HD : 593.407 MHz AUD : 491.520 MHz ¦ ¦ PLL0: 432.000 MHz PLL1: 550.000 MHz PLL2: 533.333 MHz ¦ ¦ CPU : 550.000 MHz from PLL1 ¦ ¦------------------------------------------------------------------------------¦ ¦ Memory configuration ¦ ¦ Start ¦ End ¦ Type ¦ Description ¦ ¦----------+----------+-------+------------------------------------------------¦ ¦ 00000000 ¦ 0FFFFFFF ¦ RAM ¦ System main memory bank #0 ¦ ¦ 10000000 ¦ 17FFFFFF ¦ RAM ¦ System main memory bank #1 ¦ ¦ F0000000 ¦ F0FFFFFF ¦ FLASH ¦ Spansion S29GL128P (128 Mbit / 8M x 16) ¦ ¦ F1000000 ¦ F1FFFFFF ¦ FLASH ¦ Spansion S29GL128P (128 Mbit / 8M x 16) ¦ ¦------------------------------------------------------------------------------¦ ¦ Serial number: 000-00000001 (00-000001) ¦ ¦------------------------------------------------------------------------------¦ ¦ Network configuration ¦ ¦ MAC: Conexant VMAC rev. 07 address: 00-C5-5C-00-00-01 ¦ ¦ PHY: IC Plus IP101 address: 09 ¦ +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 HD1> Next Step: • Plugin USB Stick and add this in the Terminal Code: usb start • Box answers with this: Code: (Re)start USB...

Please be aware that depening on the Image you are flashing the actual output from your serial connection may be differet!!! After this you need to convert the result into hexadecimal. Use the Windows calculator in the scientific mode. Example: 19237640 Byte /4 = 4809410 4809410 decimal = 0x4962C2 • We are now flashing the Image Quote: cp 0x0E000000 0xF0480000 0x4962C2 0x4962C2 is the result of the calculation based on this example !! Quote: Copy to Flash... .................................................. .................................................. ..............................................done HD1>doneHD1> The Image is now flashed and you finalize this whole procedure by typing: reset
