thers and open box x4 which is gprs two now the modem plugs in to the rs232 but comes with the box

What is the point of using gprs, WiFi would be more cost effective in the UK !

[beggsy21]

The point of using GPRS would be when wifi isnt available, i have a caravan with a satellite connected to 28.2e, luckily I have been able to connect up my skybox f3 as there is "park" wifi available, this involves connecting my PC to the park wifi (both username and password are req. so can't connect the skybox directly) then sharing the connection through a free program called virtual router. Some people won't have the option of park wifi but would be able to connect to gprs, thats where the f4 would come in handy.

How good is this system? Do you get much glitching or freezeing?

Do the channels clear pretty quickly or is their any nitcible delay between using gprs and wifi? I would expect some delay can anyone give any feedback on performance and reliability?

Hi just got openbox x4 with GPRS put cline on switched off at switch on the back of the box and it went bang. Now the box is dead just posted it back. Not a very good start

I am looking at skybox f4 are these boxes any good for a newbie. if the price stays the same then i am looking at ?26 for one.

Different firmware than f3 & f5 but for minor differences virtually same box, for an extra 20 quid get an f3 cheap plenty of support easy to set up & use, as with all these boxes poor epg only record what you're watching no features to speak of,still it does the main job, cheap reliable receiver
