it works the same as bringing your upccc box to your mates and it works there, once you are in the same area, so you are in the nthell area it will work yes, so if yer mates up the road or 5 mile away, it will work, again, once he is on the same network as you.
Yes there is talkback on the box, but it dont tell ya what address your in, just the box is working
I for one dont mind paying 19 to 20 quid a month for all my sport and without the fear of it being cut off or worrying were the next fix is coming from, for me, it outstrips the cost of a sat dish and set up and paying for a CS.

I didn't think there is any talkback on these boxes in use, as mine is connected to nothing but the incoming feed and this doesn't relay any imformation to the provider. They have the capability but it's not in use was what I thought was the setup. It would definitely work but I'm wondering is it worth the hassle if the sports are about 20 euro a month anyhow? Mind you not paying them either just wondering!

well a CS to a server which could be turned off at anytime costs more, so I think for folk on cable its a viable alternative to sat and CS when they dont have a Sat set up to start with,
Most folk want to plug and play and not bother messing about with dreamboxs, CS, Linux, Sat etc. So I think 20 notes for all chans + sports is a good option, especially if they are paying sub to the provider already for basic packs,

Oh I agree mate. Especially about the c/s option, I haven't bothered with that road and don't think I will. I just mean't about the cable setup with multiple boxes you mentioned. Don't know if I could be @rsed with the setup as the savings aren't great.
I repeat though, thats only my opinion!

he he, same as yerself, looked at the sat options, fair amount of work in it and with the CS not being a certain, works out the same as the cable option I mentioned.
the cost for myself to do the above with my norm sub, would be about 60 a week approx, Max pack + 3 sky + espn give or take a few bob, but its the most hassle free way at present until something better comes about.

Definitely for the cable it's the only way around it at the moment.
Went a different way myself with the sat setup though (protek). I watch my football in hers now where I set it up or on PC to TV.

But with the othe chans now dying away, gonna have to use their boxs again sadly for the normal chans, the sport will just use the lappy to the TV

I would imagine so reswob unless they want to run the risk of being cut off and then the box would be useless to them mate.
@robbie Yep. They stepped it up again. Not much left.

Hi Guys
I just got hold of an N*L Pace Ditigal box with a nagravision card. I set this up but it is telling me that the card is not activated. I have the basic package. Is there anyway I can activated the card without contacting them.
Thanks in advance
Oeano
Havent got a clue wat to do

dont multi post and no what you suggest is hacking a sub box, which is not allowed to be discussed

The multi box option with a mate is a good idea to take down the cost. We're discussing getting 4 boxes at 1 address on paper which will bring the total cost down to about ?25 pm for movies and sports and disney.
Is there a way of doing this with satellite? It would be nice to get all the Fta channels too. When you buy sky multiroom do you get a card with each box?

Not too sure about the multiroom but if one person has multiroom you can then sign into sky player and give your mates the sign in name and password and they can have it on pc/pc to tv.
You need to be subbed to Sky Sports and have mutliroom to be able to do this in Ireland.
Also have a look here http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-59/s...ox_500s-794779/

just wondering mickah,what if my mate was living half a mile away from me and he had an old dish on the side of his house[sly]would the multiroom viewing box work there.Im presuming each box has its own card?
