Problem DM500S clone & CPL won't connect

[mido67]

Hello,
I have a DM500s clone which connects good with my laptop with a rj45 crossover cable (just need to configure speed of the laptop's network card at 10mbps full duplex...) but when i connect directly with the modem no internet connexion! DHCP and network activated in the settings menu of the dreambox!!!
Where is the problem???

Put it directly to your router and with your laptop telnet it.

My problem is i should always use ICS with my laptop with rj45 crossover cable to give dreambox access to the net. (laptop:192.168.0.1 dreambox: 192.168.0.XXX "XXX coz DHCP box ticked then ip change at each reboot")
And i want my dreambox connects directly to the net through my dsl modem-router using CPL technology.

Hi

Let DHCP on the left & use attributed local IP for all devices.

router adsl :192.168.0.1
PC 192.168.0.2
Dreambox 192.168.0.XXX
Gateway 192.168.0.1
mask 255.255.255.0 for all devices

Let crossed cable to the left too & use rj45 pin to pin directly on adsl router free port.

Thank u to all for ur help!

My box is not in the same room that's why i can't connect directly the box with the modem with rj45 cable that's why i m using CPL adaptators. here is my settings on the router:

router ip: 192.168.1.1
DHCP: off

xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (desktop mac adress) --> 192.168.1.2
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (laptop mac adress) --> 192.168.1.3
00:09:34:22:21:YY (dream mac adress) --> 192.168.1.4

Settings dreambox:

dhcp: box unticked
network: box ticked

ip: 192.168.1.4
netmask: 255.255.255.0
nameserver: 212.27.40.240
gateway: 192.168.1.1

I think my settings are goods! It seems connexion is unstable because of connexion speed... (laptop <---> dreambox forced to 10mbps fullduplex and all it's ok and routeur <---> dreambox 200mbps CPL connexion)

Thank u again and i hope to find a solution...

Hello! It s not only a problem with CPL because when the dreambox is directly connected with rj45 at the modem no connexion too! I try turnin on the dhcp on the router and when i reboot i get sometimes an IP for the dreambox but it didn't keep connexion. No reply to ping... What i don't understand it s why it works when i connect directly to the network card of my laptop and not directly with the modem!!!!

Don't use the same crossed cable to connect your dream on router.
Test it whith a NO crossed cable...
Your dream won't connect internet though your PC.

Crossed cable is only for PC to Dream or other PC, laptop...
If you've RJ45 between router & PC take this one only for test connect & switch on TV on dreambox, use anything else that your dreambox can share over internet.

EG blue panel, add cam & choose anyone... I'ts ok!!! the dreambox is on internet.

Hello! I did everything... The only thing which works is when i do ICS with my notebook connected by rj45 crossed to the dreambox in one side (speed configured at 10Mbps Full-duplex because with higher or autonegotation speed no link with the notebook) and in the other side wireless connected to the router. Connected with CPL or with pin to pin rj45 cable to the router there is no internet ( IP of the dreambox configurated by hand or by DHCP same results :( )
I think there is a problem with the hardware... which doesn't supports speed over 10mbps... but if it doesn't the network speed should be slower. That's a shit to have to keep the notebook on and connected by wire with the dreambox in order to connect it to the web... :(
I believed i was not alone to experiment this problem!!!
