My System: silvercrest receiver 80cm solid dish goldstar 0.3 LNB with satfinder motor Panasonic digibox Pace digibox goldstar 80cm mesh dish amstrad analogue receiver 1.5m antique solid dish/pond Skystar2 pc card 139 inline boosters! | Hi guys, have browsed the forums but can't find just what i'm looking for. Have skystar2 working fine for satellite but wondered how I can get it working for internet, how good / reliable / fast this is and is it free or do you have to pay for a connection. Thanks. | ||

My System: [ Relook 250S ] | Well... you could download without having to subscribe to anything, the thing is you can't really choose what you're downloading. You have to use a plugin in progdvb, configure it right and get lot's of porn. This is a guide that teaches you on how to do it, it's in portuguese so you have to translate it using google I can't be bothered. http://www.satellites.co.uk/php-bin/...m-progdvb.html | ||

My System: Fortec Star Dynamic Decoder 90cm Dish USALS Motor SkyStar2 PCI PROG DVB DVB VIEWER | I had a one way connection using my sky star2 for about a year. My provider was AliceSat. There were a lot of hidden charges. If you can get ADSL in your area it will certainly be a better deal and a faster uplink connection. Unless the uplink site is close to you may also get fleeced by your phone company. Of course I am in Italy not exactly the most advanced country in Europe when it comes to Internet connectivity. Maybe you can get a better deal where you are. Good Luck James | ||
