    Hi,

    I'm using the box super usb
    It's anything but super right now.

    Think ntl have finally scrambled all or nearly all the channels?
    I haven't updated any firmware on it but everything is gone now.

    Is starview box finished or is there any hope of getting it updated?
    Should we just trash our box?
    I'm in the south east of Ireland

    Any new boxes that will work for all channels?
    Some waste of money really to have it sitting there.

    Thanks later

    there are a handful of channels left that will give you a picture and the other thing not used so much the radio channels still work,no updates or boxes for n3 problem yet.why is a waste of money as box has paid for itself many times,even the uk now are changing to n3.

    You're right, i just mean it's a waste not being able to use it
    Nah shur the channels that are left are not worth watching
    I miss the movies but when the movies wre scrambled
    i only watched extreme sports, film 4 and animal planet
    Those are gone now also, so oh well.

    Sorry for the silly question.

    When they change over to N3 in my area will I still be able to get FTA channels on my Starview box? Thanks.

    would everyone stop complaining about the boxes going we knew it would happen and I am sure we all got our monies worth from them.
    I got stung on the last box i got from mycablebox.co.uk it wouldnt work and they havent replied to any of my E-mails ,but thats life if and when the light comes back on I just wont go near that crowd again for any thing.So for now we have to suck it and see what happens
