I've been successful at making a dreambox 7020 to work with plastic but I
can't seem to figure out how to get a 500 working by using the card on the 7020 with networking.

I've got newcs+evocamd on the 7020 and have been trying to connect to it using newcamd 6.08. I think i'm on the right track, have tried many things, but can't get it going...has anyone been successful?

I saw in another forum this evening there a bug in newcs concerning card sharing. A fix ix supposed to be in the works. I hope this helps.

the problem in newCS has to do with enabling it to work with that *other provider*
It has nothing to do with DN
newcs works for DN sharing
