Silver Member Username: NassaPost Number: 109 Registered: Jun-06 | Im planning on buying a new reciever , after a year of waiting for my xtreme to come back.....Just need to know what box is working and what is reliable. |
Bronze Member Username: Stinko_dinkoZip Code 99559955 Post Number: 77 Registered: Nov-07 | Nassa, I was waiting for almost year too, and finally just got the dreambox dm100 v2, cost $160, easy to install, u need the guide step by step. Picture wise I will rate it 7/10, The box is so small it's like half the size of any box you ever seen, I will say it's the best bet for the money, at least Dreambox has been around in europe for few years now, but don't expect this to be worry free because you never know. |

Silver Member Username: CntrlaltdelPost Number: 313 Registered: Nov-06 | nano2 has been pretty solid for me... though it sounds like I may be dusting off my NF-HD soon. |
Silver Member Username: Imars99Post Number: 345 Registered: Aug-06 | Sada why should buy version 2 ? |
Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 7019 Registered: Oct-07 | i didn't notice are there two versions? what's a difference.. |
Silver Member Username: Imars99Post Number: 346 Registered: Aug-06 | *There are two versions of the DM100 at this time, V1 & V2. Setup for both is essentially the same. Occasionally there will be different files for each model. Pay close attention to be sure you get the proper file for the version DM 100 that you have. V1 = yellow lettering on the box it came in V2 = Silver lettering on the box it came in |
Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 7020 Registered: Oct-07 | thx so which one is latest rocky.. i orderd version 2 i guess....... |
Silver Member Username: Imars99Post Number: 347 Registered: Aug-06 | Version 2 is latest. |
New member Username: DensitymaxPost Number: 1 Registered: May-10 | Dreambox is missing a lot of channels if we are talking about IKS. Dreambox is okay but the Support isn't that great. Only DN is available and no BEV for Dreambox. The best supported receiver on the market right now would have to be the Conaxsat Nano2 as it has proven itself time and time again. The Conaxsat Nano2 has all the PPV events aswell The LimeSat is fairly new and wouldn't go near it for another 1-2 months until a price drop. All the BEV & DN channels are up except for PPV and the major PPV events are always available. Sonicview 360 with iHub are fairly good. They have all the PPV events but the iHub is now discontinued even though you can still buy them. Sonicview USA has stopped making them. They are a very solid brand and have been around forever. If you are looking to go for DN then I recommend a Conaxsat Nano2. If you need both BEV & DN then a LimeSat would do the trick. The cheapest one right now and the best would Have to be the Conaxsat Nano2. http://www.incrediblefta.com/item/384/1/1/conaxsat-nano-2.html Discount Code : cnxftabins (Save 10$) Remember always to check ebay for better prices.

Silver Member Username: VittuPost Number: 400 Registered: Oct-07 | Sri, check ftabins.net |
Bronze Member Username: SshanigaPost Number: 28 Registered: Oct-07 | Hi, can someone send me the channel list to load into conaxsat nano2? ( I am looking especially or Indian channels) thanks sri |
Silver Member Username: Imars99Post Number: 352 Registered: Aug-06 | Sri . Dreambox is best for international channels. |
Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 7050 Registered: Oct-07 | rocky wait one more week and u will get all the answers i will test it out for few weeks..and let you know |
Bronze Member Username: KowarriorPost Number: 30 Registered: Jan-10 | Is there a box out there which has HBO, Showtime and Internationals all working? |
Bronze Member Username: TansarbhPost Number: 35 Registered: Oct-08 | No one talks about nFusion. Are these receivers working? I have an old Pansat receiver and was wondering if i can use that. |
Bronze Member Username: Stinko_dinkoZip Code 99559955 Post Number: 80 Registered: Nov-07 | Hanz, it's your choise check http://www.ftabins.net/status.php In other words what's working today maybe won't work tomorrow, and boxes showing 80% up could go black the next day, firstable before you buy a box, you should know this, if you get a month worth of programming, you should be happy, because any fta box even thoses for real FTA cost about $120. Second don't spend anything over $160, and don't buy an HD because nothing is stable forever. I own a dreambox for 2 weeks now, I'm very happy with my choice, freeze a little here and there, picture quality is just awesome same as a sub dn. |
Bronze Member Username: DadishPost Number: 14 Registered: May-09 | So whats better? Dreambox or Conaxsat nano2? Whats less of a pain in the behind? more channels? easy to install? |
Bronze Member Username: RampeijPost Number: 64 Registered: Jun-06 | No one is talking about i-Link? Its been working solid for a while now. I just started testing SV360 Premier with iHub and its very dissappointing. Forget Viewsat. Its on the same page as nFusion. |
Bronze Member Username: SshanigaPost Number: 29 Registered: Oct-07 | Sada eagerly waiting to hear back from your test results. |

Silver Member Username: 360guyOttawa, Ont Canada Post Number: 136 Registered: Dec-07 | Ive been using Ilink for 3 weeks now and cannot recommend it. Works one day, not the next, then is fine again on the third day. this is all without changing any settings or files. Signal strength and quality is fine so the prob is not with the dish. Im changing my switch to see if that is the prob. It seems likely the prob is my box. So careful on Ilink, Also the EPG is very small 3 channels |
