To get it into network/ flash mode. turn off and boot with finger held on the front down button on the box, not the power button.

It should then give you its IP address.

Yeah, we are all wondering if you actually read the whole post before posting. These things happen if you are trying to turn it on by pressing the wrong button!! Like trying to turn on your pc by pressing your mouses right button.

Just let me add if anyone has problems to get the IP (to flash the box). After several trials at first the IP didnīt appear when switching on at the back with the front down button pressed. No way. I had to load flash via null modem and serial port. Then I found out the following:
It always happens when I first go to deep stand-by before switching the DM8000 off. However if I switch the box off (the back switch) from working mode (not deep stand-by), then I always get the IP (to load the flash via web interface) when I switch it on again.
