[QUOTE="I_Just_want_to_know, post: 602835, member: 320516"] bugger, my original reply disapperaed.. ok, here goes again, short version.. Dragged the lot down today, connected it on a 0.5m cable in the front room, running nabilosat 0.8 as suggested, and it doesnt move at all.. I started to consider if it was a fake (as it got shipped from china, and after doing a search of the seller, yes, they deal in clones alright 'O'-red I have emailed them and await a response, and have filed a complaint with paypal. There are a couple of checks you can do externally (like looking at the way tampered is spelt on the silver void label on the back), as I couldnt even get it to run the clone bomb checker utility, it just would not connect despite being able to ping the 500 easily enough. So now I'm wondering what to do next.. on ebay I see patched technomate boxes 5200, 5300 & 3400 models with various cam options for between £65 & £80 - (I dont want to be going and spending loads more, as my wallet already feels pretty conned at present) I think what I will try and do in this bit of time I have (while I still have the dreambox) is to try and get the dish and motor all set up straight on the wall pointing at one of the suggested satellites.. so that if I get a new box, its already set up. Any other suggestions greatly recieved.. Disgruntled rob O-no [/QUOTE]
