What is the alternative to Dbox2?

[slydumber]

Hello all,
Can anyone please help me know which of the boxes work for the N3 files, which is now in operation. I use to have a Dbox2 on virgi* line but ever since the N3 started, it's been useless and I want a guide on the alternative box to buy.
Please help me out.

Thanks bulldog for the reply but is there any other way apart from the cable? I have sk* dish at my residence as well. Please help me.

The Kryptview A750 with Iconnector works using CS as a workaround on cable. Others will follow suit soon enough.

However if you are going down the CS route better off looking into the satellite side of the hobby. The Dbox has many uses I wouldnt bin it.

get a dream box mate, u need to attach it to your sky dish and u need brodband connection. works a charm, as far as i am aware!!!! ;-)

I agree cs through Dreambox is the way atm as it has the open linux source and ability for both satellite and cable tuners

Thanks but could u please specify which of the dreamboxes? Is it Dreambox 500s, 500c, hd, 8000 or 800?

500 - 75 quid - standard reciever

500 HD - 300 quid same as 500 but can support HD channels

600 - 100 quid - same as 500 but allows a hard drive to be fitted to record

800HD - 150 quid clone - same as 600 but can support HD channels

8000 - top of the range comes with 4 tuners, dvd drive, wifi - about 800 quid

maybe if u and others like u had a subbed one, none of this would have happened....vm make next to nothing on their tv as sky charge them, what is believed to be too high a price

Virgin Media eyes HD as it battles Sky for lower sports charges - Guzzle.it

now if everyone had been prepared to take out at leat the basic tv package then the need to change encryption may have never happened, who knows?
