    Thanks will have to stick with Nt hell so! I'm in Dublin.

    We're not taking our boxes with us to the new house so if we set up with Ntl from stratch does anyone know if Starview will work with the new ntl digital boxes?
    Apparantly the analoge stations are free when you move in and will be for a while until they completely discontinue analogue.
    Their package is a good deal, i.e. phone, broadband and TV so will have to set up with them from day1.
    Therefore need to make sure the starview box will continue to work with the new ntl box

    Hope this makes sense.

    once you have a basic Ntl terrestril service eg, the 16 channels,
    you can use the starview.

    Thanks Desb

    By terrestrial do you mean analogue? Due to the fact that they are removing the analogue service and everything will be digital soon we will need to get a box, does anyone know if starview works with the newer ntl boxes?

    N** areas are digital and you dont need to use the SV in conjunction with an N** box.
