    Default unknown dreamlink

    I was given a dreamlink and don't know what model it is
    I opened the cover and it says dreamlink rev 1.3
    it has a module but I have not seen one like this
    it is red and is connected to the main board with 2 small white connectors
    not like the others I have seen with pins
    the guy I got it from says he thinks he put the wrong file in it
    I plug it in and nothing happens no lights or nothing on the screen
    Any thoughts
    Thanks

    what a shame
    they should make a recovery file for those who install an improper file
    Oh well well make a good parts box
    on a side note strange that a factory file would cause a box to stop all power
    one might think the file should be rejected if it were not proper
    just saying

    thanks for identifying the box for me

    there isnt a recovery file...saying made in korea leads me too believe its an original..there was reports of a clone file kill back then for obviously cloned rcvrs...not sayin yours is..nobodyspecial is the guy that would have more info than me..hopefully he chimes in.he's the dreamlink pro...

    Loading factory file with cable is the recovery
    ask him what file he put on it
    I have never heard of anyone bricking a dreamlink by loading wrong file
    It usuallys say invalid firmware
    Dreamlink never released their clone kill file for the dlhd

    thanks kidwicked
    the guy I got it from said he did not know what version it was so he tried loading the factory file cause the guy he originally bought it from locked out the server area
    after loading factory file which I think may have been the wrong one he said the box went black no lights nothing
    so he gave it to me.
    Well at least I have a power supply and remote
    and a module if some one needs one
    thanks for all your input

    ok just called him and he still has it on usb stick
    he says the file was
    DL_HDpvr_factory_106
    he says it loaded fine
    he says it went to 100% and he waited for a bit of time a good 30 seconds and nothing happened.
    He powered off and unplugged the cable and re powered and nothing since that Nothing.
