DreamBox 500s - BT Problem?

[zeshansajid]

As Starview 7 is more or less dead. I tried Dreambox 500s. The man I bought it from said I dont need a subscription all channels work but:

1. He goes it doesnt work on BT which I dont believe?
2. Im sure you need a Sky Subscription?

Please reply back.

dreambox will work on ANY broadband service.. yer mans talking out of his arse..

Thanks man. But i want to ask how does it work. Because i had starview 7 and basically get virgin media internet cable into splitter one to starview 7 and one to router. You just basically had to just put the right firmware.

But with this box you have to pay the guy like ?100 a year for channels. Im wondering isnt the firmware online and then you can download it so dont have to pay the guy.

Also whats sealion

Google card sharing and you will get some kind of idea what can be done with these boxes but this is something we cant talk about on this forum but we can tell you how to set the box up for fta tv.
Sealion or patsy as some say is slang for cline.
