krypview/starview 6 and home plug

just a qiuck question, how well do the krypview and starview 6 work with the home plug.
i have seen these and they look a good idea but was just wondering how well they actually work.thanxs in advance for anyones comments......

 

The starview is to be avoided!! the homeplugs are fine!!

 

As sg8 has said avoid the starview the plugs are great use them myself no probs at all

best prices i have found for them

cheers for response guys.will avoid sv.thnxs for the link e45.

 

seems to me this site has become so anti starview i think we should change site name to must have krypt

 

what ever floats your boat

 

I am not ANTI-starview but I am 'ANTI-being ripped off'!!

Starview released the SV6 in February, lots of people bought them. The server went down in Ireland and not a word about it!! (other than some rumours about UPC finding it in a guys house in Dublin!!)

SV6 server is up and down in the UK, and now they bring out a new box barely 6 months after they brought out the SV6 ??

but in fairness to them Kryptview did not bring out anything for the Irish!! but I think people should weigh up their options before buying a Starview box!!

 

this is my reasoning also and to add, the Krypt brought out the iconnect for the older models to get them working, which says a lot for them, apart from some maintenance the last few days which the chans are now coming back, proof is in the pudding

 

yeah whatever you think . but you be going down the wrong road with s/v so work away m8

 

those home plugs will they work wae my belkin router?

 

Was looking to go wireless with my kryptview. Was wondering if anyone has come across these before?

Nice find keninho i like this idea better

 

Could you tell me what lead you use and where did you purchase it from to get from the rs 232 at the back of the kryptview to the efthernet connector on the home plug, thanks.

 

have you got a kryptview a750 or a780? the a750 needs the iconnect to connect to the rs232 and a cable from the iconnect to the plug, the a780 plugs straight from the newtork port to the plug

 

hi ken i have 3 of these they are fantastic,try ebay,type wireless dreambox,money well spent

 

I have the a780 at the moment I have an f connector and cable from the back going to a splitter for the broadband. So are you saying I dont need a connection on the rs232. If so would I need some sort of f connector to ethernet connector cable in order for the home plug to work.

 

i think yer box should have an LAN port on the back, check incase its under a wee cover/door

 

Cheers for that mate, I only bought the a780 yesterday and your right there was a black sticker over the Lan connection. It was well on and it actually looked like it was part of the case of the box, thanks again.

 

no probs M8, its the simple things in life that make ya look dumb lol

 

Ive bought one of those vap11g homeplugs and am awaiting delivery however, looking at the description, do i need an external power supply to the homeplug or will it power thru the ethernet cable once its in the back of the kryptview a780?
