    Hi.
    I hope you can help. I apologise in advance but I have read a lot of the forums but cannot find a guide to answer all my questions. I currently receive an NTL digital signal in Dublin 14. I would like your advice as to what type of 'box' would work in my area. I have heard of the 'Starview 2 box' mentioned on some forums. Is this the best one to get? Any recommendations? Is it true that they automatically 're-tune' themselves anytime the codes change? How often would one have to intervene and change settings to keep a box like this up and running, compared to using the standard NTL box?
    Would you recommend any retailer for a box like this?
    I am aware that all of these questions may be very basic, but I am starting from scratch. All help would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards
    Benny

    Starview 2 called "The Box" is the easiest to use if you are as you say a newcomer. It is also the least expensive of all the boxes, i.e. eurovox, dbox etc.

    They have firmware that autorolls, so no worries there. And if there are any problems they can easily be answered here.

    As for a retailer we cannot advertise links here but if you google wizardsatellites you should find your answer :)

    So to recap for ease of set up and budget, "The Box", will suit you.

    starview 2 (the box) would do the job for starters and they can cause problems but can be sorted in minutes when you get to know them you could try wizard satellite
