    Hi all,

    Does anyone know of a good image for DBOX2 that will pickup freeview? I live in the Basildon area and we have gone to Nagra3 in the last few weeks, strangely we lost almost all freeview channels also?

    I have now gone to SKY+ HD because I won't start paying for VM packages just because they have implemented N3 (the same way I wouldnt go to sky when they took sky1 from VM) but wouldnt mind using the old box to get freeview in the kiddies rooms. Currently we only get around 9 channels.

    Does anyone know why N3 would be used to block freeview channels also?

    Anyway, not trying to get something for nothing just seems a shame to throw my trusty old box in the bin.

    Thanks
    Joe

    what e45 refers to is an illegal public server. i've already posted about the dangers of this. the alternative is to share among friends. so buy a legal subscription and use the dreambox to its full potentail

    e45, i cannot continue to argue this point. i will continue to advise users in safe practice while you continue to put users in danger. i have no further interest in a pointless tit-for-tat. i think what has offended me on afterdawn most is your absolute lack of interest is helping users in a similar fashion. its just reckless abandon on the kryptview and sv6 solutions. but no doubt you will self-quote to explain how important you are to this forum. my answer is as usual with you. whatever

    you will need a sat dish and a dreambox some places sell them configured and ready to go if they dont you will have to do all the work yourself

    you will also need to google card share and find a server as well here is just one below

    there are plenty out there here is a tutorial to get you started you can post in there i suggest you do some reading first on them posts
