It's a piece of piss once you get the hang of it.

Being a newbie myself I can show you the ropes but I'm having trouble after flashing the image as can be seen in this thread http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f35/what-files-do-i-need-copy-over-after-flashing-30554/. I'd wait for my thread to be answered before you do anything because your Dbox 2 won't work properly otherwise.

To FTP an image or files over to your Dbox2 you need :

A FTP program this 1 is free and easy to use FTP Client Software - Compare and download free FTP Programs (http://www.nchsoftware.com/ftp/index.html) the right hand side 1
1 Ethernet Cable then watch this video YouTube - Flashing a dbox via ftp

I got locked out of my Dbox 2 so I had to use Image Flash Assistant https://www.ssl-id.de/hallenberg.com/?G_ForceSecureWarenkorbID=e579a25ac6bc1d555c3f69a4 b7df5d14&content=downloads which requires a Null Modem to USB cable aka an RS 232 cable or If your PC has a Null modem port a normal Null modem cable like so debug | Uwe Hermann (http://www.hermann-uwe.de/taxonomy/term/1775) then watch this video YouTube - dbox2 image flash assistant

Just to add to the above. It's not a straight ethernet you need to ftp it's a crossover cable. and you don't need a null modem to flash with IFA. A crossover cable can be used alone for that.
