The answers to your questions re- updating will be found at this link, full how to flash and firmware links provided, when you say Starview 3 you do mean Starview Super I presume >>> read down carefully >>

With regards to the splitter, it is a simple matter of putting a connection from your Modem point of entry (Presume it is cable Coaxil) to the splitter IN and then reconnect your modem to one of the OUT/s and the other to your box. Yes you can buy ready made leads, but you will be limited to length, and a bit pricet, it is better to buy Digi Coaxil cable and plugs and make your own.

 

so am i right in saying the end that goes in the modem
goes in the single end of the adapter above
the 2 other ends 1 cable to the box 1 to the modem?

 

ps box is called
the box-super-starview 3

 

Correct, it is a cable splitter you have shown above >>

If you have a box on the wall were the Modem feed enters your premises, then YES and use the other 2 as you have decribed,

 

That is fine, as long as you have a Cable modem connection, which it appears you have from your description. What is your location and supplier?

all channles there but with $ sighns against them

 

Menu enter 1570 and turn Key Emu ON, exit out to TV.

 

did that
installed update no probs
auto channle scan 441 found

went to sort channles code 0000

95% of channles had $ sign on them...

tried another way
1570 went to sky sports 2
for update info sat at 0%
for 10 mins then i turned off

 

ps emu key on

 

You have installed the latest firmware, YES, the $ sign signifies an encrypted channel that is all, so if you have definately installed firmware, Menu, System Information OK and post what it says.
If the above is done, then Menu 1570, scroll down to Set Default Key press OK and exit out to Sky Sports 1 and it should update for you.

 

re did channles using 1668
instead of the other 1
so far seems to be working
im not home to check..relayed
the code to my wife to do..

update u after i get home

 

That sounds good enough, cheers
