I use a PC fan with a small speed controller that came with it so I can slow the fan down so you can't hear it. Have a look at this thread and you can see what I did http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/dreambox7000/113680-dreambox-overheating.html
You wont because for watching Sky you struggle to beat a Sky box. They are probably the easiest box to use. Ok they could do with a tweak to the EPG but is must be the best around and wont work on your Dreambox.
If I remember correctly you can set a dreambox remote to one of the 4 different code sets using a combination of button presses. If you can select which set your 800 receives like you can on some E2 images you can leave the 500 as it is.
What we did was to program our remotes so you only need...
I personally think that all Freesat services should be encrypted and cards issued with the TV licence. I am paying my TV licence fee now so people throughout Europe can watch free BBC TV channels.
I actually think the licence should be scrapped but that is another issue
Does the problem only happen when you have the 500's connected to the network? Try it without connecting in the network cable.
Both boxes need a unique IP address, they don't both have the same IP address by any chance do they? This will only be a problem when the boxes are networked.
There will always be a risk involved installing someone elses image onto your dreambox. We all trust that they have tested the image out and that it will not damage our boxes.
Dream have not destroyed any boxes. Just removed their illegally copied boot software installed without permission or license by the counterfeiters.
The boot software is not GPL, in clone boxes it is an illegal copy of Dream's copyrighted software.
