    Will starview 6 work in a area not hit by nagra 3

    Hello peeps

    I have a starview 6 which was working on cs but all the servers are down at the moment as a server in Ireland got raided

    I made a mistake paying ?180 including subs for the year but it does not seem it will be bak up and running anymore. I got 6 weeks from the box and not all the channles were working.

    Can someone kindly tell me if this box will work in a area not hit by nagra 3 or will it only work with cs?

    I presume it should work like a eurovox or dbox2 without the need to connect it to a router. It has the carling v1.00 file on it at the moment.

    Thanks in advance

        It will work in non N3 but i doubt anyone's going to buy it because sooner rather than later everywhere will be N3. Assuming that's what you were thinking of doing

        THE TRUTH
        The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

        Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
        The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

          do you lot think i should keep the box in hope that the servers will be up and running soon?

          This is what i have been told by the person i bought the box from. He says all the servers have been switched off from his end as he is waiting for everything to blow over.

          I guess its only one house in Ireland that got raided.

          The box was running ok up till friday evening

            Maybe m8, like everything else, it's a gamble that may or may not pay off. There are no guarantees anymore.

                think they would be daft to start again, then again the way they set it up was beyond belief, so who knows, but i doubt it. not sure if you can do this, seeing its closed source, but it may be possible to set your own cs up, but keep it between friends you can trust.

                    So has my supplier shit himself by switching off the server in Birmingham?

                    He has yet to agree to this saying it will come on eventually and the server raid in Ireland is bullcrap!

                    He has even taken off the starview 6 and hd combo boxes from his website 2day, that is saying sumfin, i fink he jus trying to cover his ass

                      ?260 sly gives all the astra 28.2e channels which is gd enough for me

                      I only need sky sports news , 1,2,3,4, espn and mutv

                      The rest is a bonus
