Multiple Receivers on the same Network

[Luca Toni]

Hello all


Very simple question: Can I have multiple (two or more) satellite receivers on the the same network (connected to the same router with internet) without any kind of confliction?

Scenario: I have a DMBOX 500 V8 in the living room and a BlackBox 500 in the bedroom. The living room box is connected to the router and is using Pay TV subscription. The box in the bedroom is not connected to the router is therefore only showing Free-To-Air channels, however I would like to connect this to the router and also be using a separate Pay TV subscription.
Will there be any kind of conflict having these to boxes on the same network? Such as the server for the living room box thinking the client box is trying to share to another box and so may cancel the subscription? Or that the router can't handle two different boxes online/watching different Pay TV at the same time?

Technical info:
Living room box: DMBOX 500 V8 (OpenPLi)
IP setting: DHCP Enabled (IP automatically assigned by router)
Satellite: Astra2 28.2E
Access Authentication: Enabled (default Username and Password)

Bedroom box: BlackBox 500 (OpenPLi)
IP setting: DHCP Disabled (IP manually fixed to 192.168.0.200)
Satellite: Astra2 28.2E, Hotbird 13.0E
Access Authentication: Enabled (default Username, custom Password)

the only conflict that may happen is when 2 of the same ip address clash,you could have loads on your network depending how much you pay for,like 1mb slow and easily overwhelmed,50mb much better.

Ah, so the only conflict that could occur (in my scenario) would be because of conflicting IP Addresses, but that's not a problem as I have a fixed IP (with a very high number) on one of the boxes so I'm OK! =D

I appreciate the help!! =)
