New member Username: FixxPost Number: 4 Registered: Oct-08 | Where is a good place to buy from? Ebay? |
|
New member Username: FixxPost Number: 5 Registered: Oct-08 | Oh and also I have a 42" 1080p lcd. If I buy an HD receiver will I get HD? Someone told me that even if I get an HD receiver I will not because of the way I'm getting it. Is this true? |
|
Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 4524 Registered: Jan-08 | FixX Buy it direct in a store and dont give your true adress and name. Paid it cash. |
|
New member Username: FixxPost Number: 6 Registered: Oct-08 | Hmmm what store? I have never seen these anywhere before. lol. I was already talking to my buddy about it and he said I can use his credit card and have it shipped to his house and I'll just give him cash. He doesn't do any of this stuff. He hardly even turns his TV on. =/ Shouldn't that be ok? |
|
Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 4530 Registered: Jan-08 | Do a search on web or check for reseller on original receiver sites. |
|
New member Username: FixxPost Number: 7 Registered: Oct-08 | Ok so here is what I have picked out. Tell me what you guys think. Receiver: http://www.captiveworks.com/cw800.php $109 Dish: DN 500 w/Legacy Dual LNB $35 1gig flash drive $5 This should be everything to get me started right? |
|
Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 4534 Registered: Jan-08 | Good choice |
|
New member Username: FixxPost Number: 8 Registered: Oct-08 | I found an nFusion Nova for $169.99. Should I get that instead of the CaptiveWorks? I have been reading alot about the N3 comming and everyone seems to say that nFusion is gonna be the first or only to crack it? |
|
New member Username: FixxPost Number: 9 Registered: Oct-08 | Also does anyone know of a good guide for installing and positioning a dish? |
|
Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 3949 Registered: Oct-07 | is good website for positioning of dish.. Nfusion is good choice to buy.. but depends on what are ur needs/wants? nfusion is the rec that is better in terms of "up" time and with their nf hd model they proved that they are ready for nagra 3 for both of their stb, nova and hd.. nova is slow in channel change/pvr doesn't work good.. what ever u think in ur mind buy it.. but do buy a iks reciever,b.c thats "way for future".. |

Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 3953 Registered: Oct-07 | first try to turn off emulator,and autorolls on, if this doesn't work turn on eumulator, and autoroll off. change ur diseqc mode to 2 or 1 , u will get level and quality singals .. and ur 91.ow nimq1 outside of box.. sometimes locking tp .. changing it also helps to get better signals.. |
|
New member Username: Mebn23Toronto, Ontario Canada Post Number: 9 Registered: Aug-08 | i change the deseqe mode to 2 and now the signal is way better and the other settings are still the same and now it say "Service not available" Also, i did not turn on autoroll and the emulator, i just change the deseqe to port 2 and thats it, the signal got way better. So now my problem is that it say service not available, can you please help me ASAP thanks Sada. |

Gold Member Username: Saqeeb9000Post Number: 3956 Registered: Oct-07 | if this still doesn't work go to menu internet ,network information, make sure dhcp is choosen, how is ur setup? hardwire connected with router? or u are using network adapter? turn off the router and turn it back on, one other thing u can check is on the back of ur rec u where u plug in ur network cable u will see gree light .. that means u are rec signals and red light in front of ur rec always help you that ur rec is picking up internet signals.. let me know if it works out for ya.. u will be glad u have this rec.. |
