Can you explain how Dreambox works ?
Basically i want to use Dreambox with sky and i want to know how you use it and whats involved, is it easy to use for a newbie ?
|
plug it in your feed and you wil get FTA channels , don't expect free sky.
|
unless you use cardsharing, Basicly you connect your dreambox to the internet and configure it to use a server (basicly another dreambox with a vaild skycard/sub or any of the other satcard subs) it then decodes the channels localy (i.e you still need normal sat dish) using the encryption keys from the server card (and updates them as needed when they change).
Highly illegal :) |
Does anyone else have any input ? I thought quite a few on here may use dreambox.

try this forum there really clued up on it mate Digital Kaos - Cable & Satellite Forum

Please do not discuss card sharing on these forums.
Card sharing is Illegal. You can discuss Dreamboxes to your hearts content though as they are perfectly legimate recievers for both free and (legal) subscription based satelite and DVB-T transmissions. (Dreamboxes can be used as an alternative to a sky reciever, as long as you've met the T&Cs of your agreement in your Sky contract - check the small print, namely the phone line). To recap: Dreambox: legal Card sharing: Illegal |

You simply state at the start of your contract you wish to pay the one off fee that removes the requirement of the unit being connected to the phone line.. It was £25 when we did it Mart |
Yes that is right in SOME cases. But most people do sign up for the one year interactive user discount, which mean the phone line has to be connected for one year.
Which is why I said to check the small print ;) If you never entered into that agreement, or it has expired or you cease the contractual agreement you can unplug it. Similar issue with multi-room, although I can't remember the small print off hand. |
