Starview 6 or Kryptview A780

Hi all,

Looking to update my eurovox max (as it no longer works) which i've had for quite some time.
Been looking at Starview 6 or Kryptview A780.
Any suggestions or comments to help me decide.

Thanks

Craig

 

if you want a box that has 5 months working with no prob and with the best support of any of the cable boxes you should go for the A780 kryptview

 

Thanks e45,

Why do you say only 5 months working?

Cheers

Craig

 

Is there a better option to replace my non working eurovox?

 

No your 2 options are as above on cable, Starview or Kryptview, the Kryptview has been working for the last 5 months with no problems unlike the starview which has had problems.

 

Thanks,
Am I right in thinking that when you mention problems, you then need to update your box's firmware etc?
So sounds like the Kryptview would be the better option then. As I have read that that the starview 6 box only lasts for 12 months.
How true is it that they (cable supplier) can not detect what you are watching through ip address?

What options are there for satelite? As I do have a dish, would i need to start up basic package?

for Sat, use the search function and search for Shy chans on Dreambox, all ya need is that thread, without getting into the rights and wrongs, how can you cable cpompany catch you by using your IP? unless they provide the bband service, again, there are threads on this so I would advise you to read them to get a better understanding of whats involved, the krypt is a better box, better support, better uptime etc etc.

 

The reason i say 5 mts as N3 has only been intruduced into the uk in that time before that the kryptview has been running the last 2 yrs with no problems on N1

 

Thanks for all the info.

 

NO
And wont be anytime soon!

 

So what boxes actually work on n3?

 

only in uk are these boxes working "starview.6" "starview hd combo" "kryptview a780" "kryptview a750 with Iconnect"

 

and out of the 3 i suggest you get the 780 model as it has the best support and service at the present time

 

Thanks all.
Think i'll have to go for the A780 then. Now to get it at a good price, lol.

 

cheapest ive seen it for is £150

 

Yeah i've seen them for that too. Would be nice to get it for cheaper though.lol
Thanks again for the info.

 

you will find a link to their facebok page at the bottom of my post in my signiture

 

Great, thanks thought i'd seen it somewhere.
