3. what dish is best as i been reading about motorised ones and stationary ones?

4. will they go off like other boxes did and i have to wait for update?

5. are they wifi or do i use ethernet lead?

They come with 1 years access to a cardshare server (Gift), but this will not decode Skai TV, you would either need a card or access to another CS server.

2. will i get same kind of channels like i did with my n*l box if so what do i get and what dont i get?

You will get more channels than what NTL/Virgin had on offer, but only if you join a cardshare server or use your own genuine card.

3. what dish is best as i been reading about motorised ones and stationary ones?

Motorised dishes will allow you to use the 'gift' channels as they are all located on other satellites. Motorised setups will allow access to thousands of channels, many of which are English.

4. will they go off like other boxes did and i have to wait for update?

In theory yes they will go down, but as long as you are a member of a good cardshare server then things should be fine.

5. are they wifi or do i use ethernet lead?

Ethernet only mate.

eveything that guy touches lasts a few months tops before he moves onto his next money making project.

when will people learn?

to answer your questions m8.

1. the box takes about 20 mins to set up using a usb stick if you use usals/channel list/2 patches and a softcam

2. you dont get any s**sports/movies with the gift but you can get some of the channels, nat geo/discovery/espn america but you can get the s** uk channels if you sort out a c-line for yourself (dont ask!)

3. id say a 1 meter motorised but if you want a fixed dish then a 90cm with 4 lnb,s on 28.2/19.2/16 and 13*east will get you plenty to watch

4. the keys will change for the emu packages and the gift is for 12 months with no real certainty but google c/s to learn more(dont ask)

5. they use a ethernet lead to your router or you can use home-plugs for different room ect

6. a 80cm dish will get the main satellites in most of the uk but for the weaker satellites/transponders then a 90cm/100cm would be better.

hope this helps a little m8, regards mdt
 
gotta agree with the above with 28.2/19.2/16/13 east being the 4 popular sats that should cover pretty much all entertainment !

I dunno why so many love going Thor1 west still, maybe need to check it more but dont see much just foreign stuff...

Spiderbox will have you covered with the above sats really.
