    How do you mean it can't update,the eurovox always updates.Is there something wrong with his box.Get him to put on the June software on the box and try it again.

    From looking at other threads and here, it seems that most recomend the Eurovox Max and it will work from a standard connection so long as the local network is able to support digital-which is in my area.
    So its off to buy the box on bay. Looking for recomended sellers-dont want to end up with a cloned box. So far it looks as if ukbargainhouse has a good following here-anyothers? You can PM me if you dont want to put it up there.

    Paul Ryan has gone to bed. Does not matter where you purchase as long as it a red one,(always genuine). Of course you will need to research it to get your best price.

    Thanks for that info on the guide. I setup, running grand last night. Now, do I need to have any software downloaded on my lap incase of the boxs been scrambled? do I need updates? let me know what you think.
