Connecting to Mut@nt with FTP

[Woodbutcher32]

Evening all
Attempting to connect to Mut@nt 2400 using FileZilla
I know my I.P. address however don't know what to put as "username" "root" & "port"
Do I need all of these things?
Is there a default password for the Mut@nt?

Any help appreciated.

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but try Name - root and Password - dreambox

Thanks Cosmic but I've tried that from Punishers' guide

Sorry I couldn't be of more help mate. I knew feck all about stuff like this, I just looked at my laptop, which connected to my Mut@nd 2400 HD, and that's what the Name and password were on the Dreambox Control Centre.

If it's not that, and it's Dreambox Edit you're using, let me know, and I'll have a look at that.

In ViX the default FTP login details are root (username) and the password is left blank, although some FTP clients require a password in this case any thing will work until you setup one for your self. Default FTP port is always 21.

Thanks Phoenix but still no joy...
I'm getting "Status: Connection attempt failed with "EACCES - Permission denied".
Error: Could not connect to server"

And with FlashFXP I get:

FlashFXP 5.0.0 (build 3805)

Try DCC (Dreambox Control Centre), a lot better than firezilla n flashfxp imo.

[DaMacFunkin]

Its a problem with your firewall, beware you may be running more than one.

Ah cheers where do I find it?
PC settings or Mut@nt settings?

That's strange buddy. I have a Mut@nt also and always use DCC with no issues. You haven't changed any settings that you know of have ya?

What do you have for firewall software on your pc?

[Woodbutcher32]

Just windows firewall but I've just disabled it

I have windows firewall and use DCC without problems. I'm baffled by your issues.

[Woodbutcher32]

I've also changed quite a few network setting as I've been banging my head on the wall for a couple of days now! :-)

Pretty sute my I.P. address etc. Is still correct though

[Andy_Hazza]

In DCC when you scan/search for your Mut@nt do you see it and does the IP address match and you save it? Do you get the error when you click on the FTP box?

[Woodbutcher32]

Yeah got the correct ips for pc & router & box
41864

[Woodbutcher32]

Managed to get network ok FTP wasn't running on the box!

[Andy_Hazza]

Glad you sorted it buddy [emoji106]🏼

[Woodbutcher32]

Not quite Andy but I'm a step closer!

Cheers for everybodys help

[Woodbutcher32]

I've copied a file over to etc. folder but do I need to copy IPK anywhere?
Can I just download it to the box and install it?
Thanks in advance

[Andy_Hazza]

IPK's go into var/volatile/tmp folder

[Woodbutcher32]

Cheers andy, does it just sit there or do i need to run it/install it somehow?

Sorry for my constant questions I'm a builder not rocket scientist. :p

[Woodbutcher32]

I've got it Andy cheers

You da man
