Ok been into satellite since 89
over this time ive owned several analogue(still using nokia 1700)
and several digital recievers
Last year i decided to upgrade my digital reciever from a Humax
I sold this and bought a Fortec however constant problems arose with this reciever which resulted in the supplier swapping it for a Manhattan 6900 which was great however a fault has occurred with it constantly going into boot mode for several hours before coming out of it even though it was updated firmware wise to the new firmware that supposed to prevent this it happened.
Now my good supplier says i could either swap it for a technomate 8000 hd ready and pay £30 extra or i could pay upto £100 and swap it for a Dreambox Dm7000s.
I liked the dreambox when it came out but several problems were being reported etc at that time and i had just bought my fortec etc, however with this opportunity presenting its self i have until tomorrow night to let him know which one.
Here where the problem is there is not that much info on the technomate and the dreambox apart from either deutsch sites or manufacturer sites(which i hate)
I am into the net and do have a wireless network around the house so this is a advantage for the dreambox etc
So im after honest opions on the both.
Also at the moment my manhattan decodes channels via the ucas etc but i do believe that the dreambox does by using software etc so does that mean i could sell my cardwriter and cards etc any help appreciated.
and was the db effected by the april 1st penta 1.10/11 problem etc
Thanks
