If you want this to go Wireless, there is a dongle, these boxs use RALINK5370 type wireless dongles, same as the genuine ones from Ferguson, which are 25 Euros, they have these on fleabay to for a couple of quid!

I found what I was looking for alright Micah. Took me a while, but it was fairly obvious in the end. Just using the editor tool to sort out my channels, proving to be a bit tedious. That app for the remote control is the business too, can change channels from anywhere in the house.
This box has proved to be a great bonus. I bought it just for the saorview aspect and being able to get BBC and itv HD, but now it's going to replace my dreambox 500. It's far better quality.

was it this way - TOOLS, LOCAL NETWORK SETTINGS, (RED) button to access the ccams menu?

Yeah the editor can be a pain alrite, but at least you have one for it and there is a tool also if you brick it from Ferguson also, to reflash the eprom

Hope to this weekend or monday, have the dongle on order, how you getting on with the Edison? a great box with the lastest firmware on it for CCAM/oscam etc and I think think youtube, Rss feeds etc.

When I get the box up and running will put a guide together. but they are straight forward

if you could make it available pudz, i'd be sorted. this is proving quite painful. i seem to have for example two or three itv 1 channels, only one of which works, and i have to have the right one for the channel editor... it means cross referencing back and forth several times for each channel. hard to explain, but suffice to say my head is getting wrecked.

Chan files only work with the relevent firmware, meaning, I done a chan dump for a 250 using firmware 1234 and you are using abcd, it wont work,

check my sig below for chan editor

That's interesting pudz.it's not jus me either then.am experiencing the same thing. Dreambox worked perfectly but it's as if the networking side of the ariva just isn't quite a quick at picking up the info.ifn using my internet it gets worse. Find it seems to improve by rebooting the box.hopefully it's some setting we a are overlooking

Forgot to add, it seems okay on free to air channels, although out does do it withmy rte channels, but that may be because I'm receiving them through the satellite rather than dvb.

it could be the firmware, its a fairly new box and you will see updates happening as time passes with them, i had trouble with the 250 and the wireless dongle and it seems to be fixed now, still finding my feet with it, got a chan file for it and its OK, so am gonna scan the box and create my own with proper favs and layout etc, may take me a few hours work but will do it and have it perfect.

Have the CCAM working and so far, apart from the dongle issue, its been grand!

her grass cutting or the box?

ha ha

EDIT - Anyone try the wireless dongle yet? (the 6 euro one, not the 25 euro one from Feruguson) I have, works well, but this is my only gripe, you need to manually connect the box each time, meaning, the box picks up your wireless, but dont auto connect as far as I can see, other than that its good, streamed youtube and works well
