It is a Set Top Box build by Allwell (http://www.allwell.tv, the type is 1030N.

This Box is oem-build by different distributors, so it´s sold as

- Mobilcom Surfstation
- Websurfer Pro
- Easynetbox

Here are some pictures:

I have a second one which I want to set up as Mp3-Box, so I needed the Patch.

Bye

Hi all,

I've got the some box, the same board and the same problem :-)

Is there a place where I can download the patched BIOS? If not, could someone please send it to me?

Final question: would I be allowed to make the patched BIOS available to a greater public?

Cheers
Phileas
