    plug and play dreambox or spiderbox

    Hi there to all. could anyone point me in the right direction as what to purchase a dreambox or spiderbox. AT the moment i have a technomate 5300 super on a motorised sat getting all satelites from tuksat 42 east to hispasat west. Im not very technical with technology so i would like to get a system that would just be basically plug and play or as near to that as possible. And if i am to purchase one or the other would it just be a matter of taking out the technomate and do a straight swap with the new box and connect it to the router. Also my phone connection will be not near the receiver and i don,t want wires running everywhere can it be done wireless? ps sorry for such a long question but im a real novice. many thanks for any help.

    the spiderbox is more plug and play than the dreambox..
    to make either wireless you'll need a wireless Ethernet bridge

    Leave the dish at 1W before you swap the boxes over (its a straight swap)
