In my experience with CAMs I've seen two approches to updating cam firmware: 1) embedd firmware in a transport stream 2) use a special smart card (a so called loader card) and a smartcard programmer If your cam vendor uses approach 1 there are two possibilities, either the cam vendor pays for bandwidth on some satellite in which case you need to direct your dish at that satellite and tune to the correct transponder, or your cam vendor provides a transport stream for download which you need to feed into a modulator connected to your dvb card. if your cam vendor uses a loader card I'm sure the steps needed are explained along with the firmware download and/or the loader card.
