    he he i know ya are in uk, we dont have the boxes working anymore over here :(
    i was just asking the way cable is setup over there is it not the same as here
    yes we have the green metal box on the road in some parts,
    but outside our houses/flats there is usualy a greysilver metal box small, either above your house or neighbour's that your cable connects into from your house (it screws in to it) and possibaly 1 or 2 neighbours maybe connected aswell depends on how close house/flat/apt are apart

    EDIT
    ahh i see! wrote before i seen E45 reply

    Nope it is not that way over here, each subscriber has an individual BROWN box - usually at the front of the house (fed by cable underground), no more than 2ft. off the ground and as E45 has stated all the connections go to a localised Green Box.

    yep i think you have wasted 60 as the new boxes that work are the "starview.6" or the "kryptview a780" both need broadband aswell to work,
    did you flash the box!!!

    just the same

    you could try getting back on to the chap that gave/sold it to ya, and say it was the starview.6 you were ment to get,!!!
    but i doubt he will go for it (no harm in trying though)

    My sv4 has gone off, but I thought I'd still receive free channels like itv2 etc? I only get bbc1,2,itv,4 and 5
