The dvbnet command now creates dvb0_0. I have managed to tune to a transponder using dvbtune, but I didn't see any data on dvb0_0 when using ifconfig. Can you suggest a procedure so I can see the ip data received with something like tcpdump ? This would hopefully prove that I have configured everything correctly.
