    I'm new to all this.

    I'm currently in Italy and I need a TV broadcaster. I don't like Sky Italy because it's basically all Italian.
    I found a few sites selling Sky UK subscription but can't find any legit reviews..

    Searching and searching I came into the Dreambox stuff.
    So my question is, with a decoder like Dreambox, can I get the FULL Sky UK pack? Including HD.

    I have a Internet connection of 20 Mega's.

    If the answer is yes, then I can buy the decoder. And I was told in some other places that instead of buying a Dreambox, I could get a better one like Vu Solo 2.

    Help me out please guys!

    in Italy looking at the spot beam of the satellite you would need a big dish of probably atleast 1.2 meters but probably even bigger (check with installers local to you ) , and even with that you probably wont receive any of the uk channels bbc/itv etc .

    if you cant have a big dish and so cant have sky uk via satellite there is another solution which is iptv , that's tv channels provided over the internet , the 20mb broadband speeds you have should suffice .

    there are official subs to be had using official iptv boxes , but also unofficial subs using an enigma 2 box or a mag 250 etc . just a few things for you to consider
