COOLSAT 5000 - 6100 PART 3 - Come and join our Misery and endless moaning

Hi everyone! For those of you that are getting scrambled channel let me tell you what I did. I checked the keys and the last two rows were wrong so I took autoroll off input the keys, nothing still happened so I got frustrated and put back the autoroll and low behold I have sat, this happened twice. So try it it worked for us.

 

Still nothing coming up for me. Anyone got it working atm?

 

You have to wait for sometime, Let the auto roll works it. I waited for 15 min.

 

Are we down or just me. Anybody else down too??

 

Seems like it is down for me.

 

It s down for me two but i am going to try to turn off autoroll.hope it works

 

good luck,let us know if it work.

 

anybody having any luck. cant seem to find any info on the cs5k. latley. think its bad buisness practice if cs stops supporting. i know ill never recomend or purchase again. hit me back someone with any news. thanks.

 

My sentiments exactly!! It's a shame...but, it was good while it lasted

 

Coolsat is killing themself if they stop support for their cs4,5,6ks.How they pretend custumer to trust them,they maight do the same for the newer models. They should have offer to take the boxes(4,5,6ks)as a trading(ej.$50.00) for a newer model + the diference of the sale price.
I still like my 5k,but the lack of support push to buy another brand.
I'm sure they lost a lot of bussiness for that.

 

Me too, I still like the coolsat because it is friendly and easy to use, the picture is great... I have the new pansat. It is different like black and white if it compare with coolsat.
Your idea (trading) is good but it is undoable. It is underground stuff.

 

they do have an exchange program you can send your 5k and 79 dollars to them for an upgrade to a 6100 seen it at f2atv.com

 

I read about it,but somehow I got the feeling is a scam.Maybe I'm wrong,if somebody have done that,please tell us about it.
Are the new models 6100,7000 as good as the 5k.??

 

*** HELP JOHN WAYNE IS KILLING ME ***
OK I will admit I have been out of the loop for awhile.. My Coolsat 5000 went TU several months ago. Since that time I have been watching 1 channel on rabbit ears. The HD thing took place today in our area.. Now I am back to my husbands John Wayne movies. That will not keep a 30 year marraige together very long in this day and age.

My question is what is the best Coolsat to buy. The 7100 looks good as far as getting the bins in a timely fashion and the price is acceptable but, since I have not been keeping up with the times in the FTA world I am seeking some expert opinions as to the best system to buy at this time. Since I used the Coolsat 5000 for several years and am aquainted with the system per se, I thought I should stick to what I know best. Am I on the right track as purchasing the 7100 and is their other equipment I will need to purchase due to my TV not being HD compliant?



Any help would be greatly appeciated. This is my 1st post to a FTA website as I am a reader and can usually figure out what I need to know from reading the forums. In this case my situation needs IMMEDIATE attention as I am going crazy as there are onlly so many VHS and DVD movies I can watch.

I have really, really tried to find a forum for this question and cannot seem to find a place to ask this question since it is so open to all FTA products other than that I would prefer to stay with the Coolsat brand.

Thanks anyone that answers and have a good evening.

i personally wouldnt go with coolsat, they might stop supporting other models soon as newer come out. they made their money on the 4-5-6 k but no longer want to support cause there is no money in it for them. that loyalty to their customers deserves a similar reaction from us. obviously if they are in the buisness of supporting their current products im sure is shouldnt be too much more to maintain their original customers at least some manner to support the purchase of their product. may sound harsh but if they have the means to get us up and running but wont cause it doesnt make them money . now they are supposed to be 100+$ paper wiehgts. sory for the rammbling. just my opinion. try the view*** or the pan*** even nf*** thats what im looking into . good luck.

 

Hello! Does anyone know if 135 is working 'cause is posted up top at f2a

 

Coolsat to buy???..........None.I lost my trust on them,I agree 100% with Flexican post.I switched to SV & support within hrs.Coolsat commited suicide by stopping suppot to probably one of the best stbs.
Hope this help....good luck

 

I have the cs7100 and really like it. It is easy to use and you don't have to unhook it to put a new bin on it!! The one thing that sucks is it is still slow on good bins that don't freeze up. there for a while the bins was great, but all and all I am still happy with it.

 

im just saying your already having delays . whats gonna happen when the next generation of coolsats come out. if you go just by their actions now your then expected to upgrade to those and end up with a paper wieght. like us . i hope they read forums like this and see the consumers reactions.
