    New Cisco box.

    Hi.

    I know the cable scene is on its bum but thought i would ask anyway.

    This morning i got my dedlivery from virgin, it is a Cisco HD box. it is not the 3 tuner box just a HD box.

    I noticed that there is no smart card with the delivery. Is this an IP box or similar?

    are there any hacks or mods that i can do to this box?

    Thanks.

      this is the non PVR HD box from VM .. did you get charged a one-off 50 quid.. cos if you didnt then I would like to know how you got away with that, as I am after this box and was quoted 50 pounds and will XL TV package you get most of the HD channels

      you should already have your VM card which you stick into the back of the box and phone VM up and they authorise it.

                    As said earlier. Check the packaging as there will be a card in there. Each box has it's own card and your old card will not work in the new box.

                    I got the same box as you for free also, it was vm that phoned me and offered it me with a no fee self install. Only catch is that they've slyly tied me to a new 12 month contract! Not happy at that .

                    Regards.
