    Linux Blackbox 500C

    I notice you have an advertisment for the linux blackbox 500C at the bottom of the forums. Has anybody used one of these and would they recommend them ?

    Cheers

      Linux Blackbox 500C

      I have got one of this in silver for about 5 months now.Tuner is better then orignal dreambox and tuner has F connector instead of aerial type socket.
      With this one you dont need f connector adaptor for cable signal input.
      I am currently using Digital world image with no problems, but now flashing with Digital kaos image to see how it behaves.

            Thanks for the info. I am going to order one of these for a friend of mine. I have been a Dbox man for about the last 4 years so I may need some help setting 500c up.

                I got one of these from my cuz who bought it from buythings a couple of months ago, It had DK v1.0 so updated it to v1.1. Everything was fine but it was disconnect for a couple of weeks due to decorating. When connected back up nothing, just power led showing. So tried re-flashing with dreamup but was still waiting for response after 20 mins tried this via 3 different computers still same result. cuz has been trying to get in touch with buythings via phone, email for the last 2 weeks. Still no reply!
