If you are only starting out, I would suggest the cheapest box, (DM500S for around 80 euro).

fla1101 what kind of budget do you have for a box ,i mean if your on a very small budget the dm500s would cost only about ?60 if you shopped around ,as sg8 says its also a good box for a newbie . if you have a bigger budget there is the spiderbox as hooter says or the vu+duo ,there are a few good dreamboxes out there such as the dm800hd or the dm500hd .if you simply only want to watch tv channels and are not bothered with the hd channels the dm500s will suffice. however as a newbie its probably best to get the dm500s and learn what needs to be learned and then move up to a dm800 or a spider box etc.

Piopat, where can you get the DM500S for 60 euro?? The cheapest I can ever find is around 80 (delivered to Ireland)?? and can nearly get a TM500 for that price now, but if I could get another DM500S for 60 I would !!
Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??

I think they are all clones nowadays, but I still cant find one for that price delivered to Ireland.

yes the price i gave of around ?60 is a clone dm500s and p+p is extra ,and it would be coming from asia. and as always people need to be aware that buying from asia has its risks. your 100% correct there sg8 about ?80 with p+p.

the above link is only to show people the kind of price range for the various clone dreamboxes, and is in no way a recommendation of the company.

Thanks for that Piopat, thought I was the only one who could not get them for 60 euro!!!
There are a few sellers on amazon.co.uk that sell them and it works out around the same price ( 80 euro delivered to Ireland ).

Finally got my box going.
Got a test cline say's I'll get all sky channels but I can't seem to get any xxx channels even though their part of the deal.
How do I do it?
Picking up loads of channels but most are the same.

if you have all the sly channels including movies/sports the c line is working ok. the only adult channels on the sky sat are tvx the adult channel and other softcore channels (if your server says you should have these channels send him a pm) however if you mean the hardcore channels such as sex view and red hot etc they are on hotbird 13 east .

Hey guys,got my dm500s today,from Hong kong,70 euro to the door.Totally new to sat,just getting ready for the last of my channels to disappear (Southern Ireland).Please correct me if Im wrong,
1/ Ive got a sky mini dish & dm500s,I point my dish at Astra 2?.
2/ Do I have to flash my box ? I think it came with the enigma image,not sure?.
3/ Im only interested in having something to look at for when my channels go,so free to air will do for now,Iwill get these on the 500s?
Like Piopat says,when I find my way round this box,maybe I'll upgrade and until then I will just read what ye guys are up to.

as sg8 says as long as the image is not in chinese (which can be the case )it will do fine and give you all the free to air stuff .for anything else you will need to connect the box to your router and install cccam .as sg8 said can you post a link to where you bought the box ,as alot of people are looking for a reliable place to buy dreamboxes.

Not just them though. Don't have channels Men and Motors, RTE,TV3 to name a few.
Do I jsut do a scan on 13E? Then I lose my 28E channels?

If your dish is pointing at 28east you will only pick up channels from that satelite. If your dish is not pointing at 13east, you will not pick up anything by scanning on on that setting.
The missing channels may not be part of your CS server, you would need to confirm that with whoever you got the C LINE from.

Unfortunately you seem to have miscalculated your pricing, as the price is not '70 euro to the door', as the customs will most likely take a look at it first and add on 21% (plus a handling fee).
But you MIGHT get lucky and it may avoid customs and come straight to your door!!, but don't be suprised if it doesn't!!!

I guess I got lucky so,the company valued the box at 20euro,maybe thats why.Once the price goes over a certain amount,they catch you,I think. I bought a multi meter before for $60 and I did get caught for that.

joe men and motors seems to be gone ,as for rte/tv3 they are only available on an irish sly subscription so you would need to have a server with an irish card .if you have a fixed dish pointed at astra/eurobird 28 east than thats the only satellite you can view ,if you want to view other channels on satellites you would need to either to add a second lnb to your dish (giving you say hotbird 13 east and sly 28 east) however if your dish is a standard sly dish it will likely be to small to recieve a strong signal from both sats ,an 80 cm dish is more suitable for this purpose. you could of course install a motorised system.luke glad to help if i can mate.

Hi Folks
I thought I would throw this out to all the kind people at afterdawn that have helped me so much with my cable boxes in the past.
After ALOT of help from Piopat I managed to get my dreambox 500s running on the darkstar 11 image sharing internally with another 500s, everything working fine.
So next in my thurst for knowledge for things I dont have a clue about I thought I would try and set up external sharing!!! bad idea I now have one thread of hair left!!
Followed piopat guide for dummies to try and set it up, set up my dyndns account which seems to be good running off the host ip of my broadband, set up my port 12000 on my router, set a static ip for my computer then entered my C and F lines on my client and server boxes but unfortunalty it does not seem to work.
It says on the client box that I have one server set up but it is offline and no card in it.
So really hoping that someone here can give me some help or advise on what to look for.
Thanks in advance
Callum
