Aegon,

first download the zip file from the webshare that I put in post #4 of this thread.
Then upzip this file somewhere on your computer.
It should contain 8files:
boot.bin
kernel.bin
machine.dat
micro.bin
redboot.bin
rootfs.bin
update.dat
version.dat

Now connect your DR800 to your computer with the USB cable.
It should present itself as an external disc (just like a USB stick)
Navigate to the x:\system\ folder on the DR800 with your filemanager
Create a folder named "update" in the system folder
And copy the 8 files from the zip file to that folder.
So now there are 8 files in the x:\system\update\ folder

Do a "Safely Remove Hardware" of the DR800
Unplug the usb cable
The DR800 should automatically recognize the firmware update and start the update.
