Can I use xx-client_v2.5.57.273-linux-x86-atheros-broadcom on a X-FTA

[sledgehammer]

Hi,...

After reading many posts, I am still unable to understand.

I require some direction on how to install
xx-client_v2.5.57.273-linux-x86-atheros-broadcom on a X-FTA router, running original
"xfta-o8.09.2-g1.2.3-wf0.23mex_firmware"

I have successfully installed run and configured
xx-client_v2.4.180.926-openwrt-broadcom file. (disabled console via "/usr/sbin/serial_console off")
for Viewsat.

My question is where, what and how to install the "xx-client_v2.5.57.273" on the Xfta?? for use
with NFusion HD.
Remember I have already the "xx-client_v2.4.180.926" working, so it may be as simple as to overwrite
a few files? But how to run for NFusion?, wireless or/and able to connect to Cat 5 from router?

Appreciate any advice given.

The same way you installed 2.4. You can just copy the 2.5 binary over and overwrite the 2.4 binary.

Nfusion protocol uses Ethernet (Cat5) instead of a serial port.

1: i would copy over "xx-client-broadcom" to /jffs/root as well as the new xx-client.ini ...

2: would I be able to somehow run the VS xx-client as well on the same XFTA? and be able to serve 2 STB's?

thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

The ini's are backwards compatible. Just need to change the receiver_protocol setting in xx-client.ini.

To service multiple receivers you just make 2 separate folders with the ini's for a particular receiver in them. For example you make one folder named viewsat and another nfusion. Both have their own xx-client.ini and servers.ini. Then you launch xx-client with the folder that contains the set of ini's. Example, xx-client-broadcom /root/viewsat & and xx-client-broadcom /root/nfusion &

One xx-client will load the settings from the viewsat folder and the other will load the settings from the nfusion folder.
