    they upgraded to nagra2 and we we're going again within days. some boxes weren't even affected so that's all a nagra update will do is make some boxes not update.

    and good point karl > [​IMG]

    ah sure all this will do is frighten people (newbie's) so there's no point in having a thread with a title in capitals about rumours and having people worried about all this and keep asking questions about it posting multiple threads. i recommend a mod deletes this and makes a new rule that you're not allowed post these thread's unless it's true and you have proper info on it.

    anyway nice weather all week (not) it's not too bad today lol.

    yeah but they will hack it again and we don't want people worrying and posting multiple threads and spreading this news around. we'd rather hear it from a reliable source about when they'll do it but until then we don't care as we still have tv.

    I am posting this with a status Staff Member but I just want to point out that that in no way means I have absolutely any better info than anybody else - in fact, the main AfterDawn site doesn't even cover these topics, this explosion of users to these specific forums on AfterDawn was a bit of a phenomenon and it's totally independent of the main focus of the actual website itself.

    Anyway, with that out of the way, I recently changed my Internet connection to UPC and funny enough, the guy who came to install it for me was the one who sparked the conversation about topics like this after he asked me what I do for a living and I mentioned AfterDawn and he recognized the name.

    Long story short when "he" brought up the modded boxes etc. (he stayed for ages, dragged feat talking about Xbox Live when he saw my 360, his PSP, where he likes to download stuff etc.) he also said the same thing to me, that toward the end of the year all the boxes handed out to customers will be changed because of an upgrade. Now I know absolutely nothing about what this actually means, but as far as he was concerned it was going to stop people from being able to basically watch any premium channels without paying for them.

    Of course, I know that some guy contracted to install my modem is not exactly a great source, but when I saw this thread in the recently updated list I couldn't help but share that I had heard the exact same thing.

    dave is also called direct tv ,and charlie is also known as dish network. why i don't know? but they haven't opened any "daves"current cards yet and i remember when that went down they said really soon how many years has it been? but my brother got a job selling these dishnetwork packages and me and the ownner talked about FTA boxes and cards and cardless recievers and he said the same thing that they are going to card swap. but i don't really believe him, you always here about how it cost too much money ,or it screwed up legit subs out there. but if all they got to do is send a new card out then i rethought this and its not a true card swap on all receivers only the cardless ones will get em. at first and then everybody else

    My box doesn't owe me anything. I've had it nearly a year and watched lots of movies on it that I wouldn't have seen otherwise.

    I'm sure that if and when something does happen, people will have been working on new software as well and it won't take long to get things up and running again. And if i have to buy a new box, so be it.

    Now can you ever shut up about this scaremongering, doom ridden rubbish?

    I agree that these type of threads are rubbish until we hear something from a proper source, but I must admit it does make you think especially if you plan on purchasing some new boxes. I'm the same as most here that my boxes owe me nothing as I've watched them for over year now with no probs, but I was thinking of decking out the rest of my rooms in the house with boxes and I have to say the rumors did get me thinking lol

    But as suggested, even if something is done to halt the boxes I'm sure it wouldn't be long before they are back working again :)
