Bf430

**ktm200** · 05-05-08, 06:26 PM

Is the link light on the BF430 supposed to stay on constantly. The reason I ask is that I have one that I bought recently (bad timing) and I can connect to it for a minute or two and then it doesn't respond anymore and the link light flashes on and off. What am I doing wrong?

I have a good understanding of networking

Cheers

Well after trying everything I could think of, it turned out to be the BF unit not liking my 9v 150 mA power supply

I could swear that when I plugged it in it said 450 mA. Someone must have swapped power supplies with me.

i use 12 volt units with mine when needing an external supply otherwise if being used with a humax i pick up the power from the power supply internally saves the need for an external one(not that i am using any anymore)

A firmware upgrade to allow it to connect to newcs would fix that.. Not that I have one

I Don't know what you're talking about decapper.

The Bf430 is bundled with a switchmode 9v 1A7 slim power pack which was made optional.
this is so that it works with ANY Bfxxx unit especially the 450 which has relay inputs and outputs.

Not possible to revive the humax. Irdeto = austar = dead

I was just saying it would be good if there was a firmware upgrade on the BF so it worked with NEWCS PC version. Then you could use it for the only box that works with NDS (besides the softcam boxes).

thanks fandtm666
I was just playing with it to see if it worked or not. I am probably going to use it for a console login for a server.

Why do you need the Good/Fake EMM response, what is it about the BF tha requires it?

Note: I don't have pictures just playing with what was.

cheers

Well mate...
