Starview in Ireland Does it work? Or am I better off getting a Dbox2?

Hi all,

Interested in a starview box, but don't see to many Irish users on here, just wondering will it work in Ireland? Is there Ireland specific images? Any help appreciated

Thanks

Should work if you're on NTL, not sure about Chorus though as the latter uses a different symbol rate from the UK cable systems. I've heard of a Starview re-seller in Galway come to think of it, so there must be a reasonable demand for them here. If I were you I'd get a Dbox2, if only for the support availble on this forum..

 

Hi,

I actually went for a Dreambox 500C as I'm already using Dreambox 7020 for satellite, I'm used to working with this type of setup, hope I can find a decent UK image to work on the cable setup here.

Thanks

You should first check which service you get.
You need a 500t box for chorus mmds and a cable box for chorus cable, NTL mmds and NTL cable.
In some areas old analogue only cable networks are left over and you cannot get digital channels via such networks.

 

No I'm ok neighbour had Digital service through Pace box. So I'm ok.
