if you turn off the broadband you will only get FTA channels.. you will not get any encrypted channels to clear on 28E with the Maxx

Only european broadcasters

ive got a maxx 1000 receiver that works via the internet via a ethernet cable and i dont think you can use mobile broadband with this cos its not got a usb connection unless you can get a usb to ethernet adaptor then it may work ,but i wouldnt hold much hope :-(
also i used to have a 3 mobile broadband that had a shit signal so i got a 5metre usb to usb cable and but it outside in a sandwich box and put it threw an air vent and full signal all the time
so if you can get an ethernet to usb then thats a way to get a full signal

you can get mobile broadband wireless routers to overcome this problem.. also ethernet to usb connectors are easily available and work fine..

its this one i have
has a connection on it like one for an external hard drive and a usb at the other end of the cable might call into 02 during the week and see if i can buy a wireless router for it

I know that here in the UK currently o2 are pushing these out:

ya il give them a shout the weekend hopefully they have something

if they do have one, i hook my 02 up to it then do i connect it to the laptop or directly to the box

[opsmonkey]

Receiver to the router..

it may just be a wireless router, ie have no ethernet port.. if this is the case you will need to plug one of these into the receiver's ethernet port..

USB to Ethernet

then plug a wireless usb dongle like this into the usb end..

ya sure if i decide to get it an have any difficulty il give ya a shout cheers
