Get a FTA with DN.... been up 100% for 45 days now ..everything is up!... try buy and sell newspaper or ultimatetesters.com, they are local city guys... think near danforth

[great bear]

Direct is back up. Cost is about $150 for 3 months. If your a techie you can probably steal the signal yourself.

[Juldet]

Is Direct up with a card or FTA? If it is a card, is it all open PPV etc? I think what some people have is a subscription with Direct and because they are allowed to have a few extra cards/receivors they sell them. If it is completely open then they have cracked the Nagra 2 encription and we are all in business again!

[great bear]

Its with a card and so far the PPV movies are available. Won't hold my breath waiting for them to shut it down.

You're mixing up DTV (Dave) and Dish Network (Charlie). Dave is still down and there is no fix for the P4 or P5 card yet. Nagra 2 does not apply to Dave. Yes, you can subscribe but that will not get you access to PPV and/or porn.

Charlie was down temporarily when Nagra 2 was implemented. After about a week a fix was found and I've been watching free PPV and porn without problem. I would recommend a cardless FTA box such as Fortec or Coolsat. They're about $2-300 and you can find files to flash your box all over the net. Doesn't need a card and easy to use.

[Juldet]

That's what I thought about Dave ...that people are just getting a subscription in the US and selling their additional cards. They are not open ...no PPV, Porn etc but with Charlie you get it all with a FTA. I thought Dave was a different version of Nagra 2 encription. There is no Dave completely open now so don't be fooled. I have been a member of ultimate testers for about a year and they have all the free fixes and sell the units too. They are the most reliable that I have seen and warn about fake fixes.

Thank you gentlemen.

Interesting system zzap, what was the price tag on that system?

[check_mate]

The Dreambox DM7020 sells for over 500. Don't forget these boxes can become obsolete in a matter of months. Can someone say how long FTA Charley/DISH will be up for ?

Yes they are expensive but the Dream Box runs on Linux 'open' source and is the box all the hard core satellite hackers in Europe use. It's made in Germany and is a quality receiver. It was the first FTA to be decoding Nagra-2. Being Linux open source means just about anyone out there can write programs for it... I even have mucked around with some scripting on it.

OK so say Charlie in the future turns on an unknown ASIC within his cards... that would kill the FTA's however the Dream box could run with a card and take advantage of the cards ASIC since the Dream Box has 2 ISO7816 card readers and support for an internal embedded SIM card, more Ram, etc... having access to the Net means it could receive instant key updates and run card sharing with a paid sub... The Dream basically has so much extra onboard hardware to support so many other possibilities of future changes I think it was a good investment.

Wise Guy....LOL Great site she has:))

Back to the question....who do i contact for DTV???

[l69norm]

In case anyone is interested, N2 Freeware is out for Dishnet using a Rom10. I have it running on a 3100/301-10 using a Rom10. Nothing free for Bell, Atmega, Rom2/3/11 yet.

[Incall]

Dishnet atmega is now up and running also.

[l69norm]

The Dreambox DM7020 is selling for about $700+,there are alot of receivers out there now. Like the Pansat 2700a or the Coolsat for about $250 and the Azria 750CX that is going for $300 ...

N2 Freeware should be out soon for the other test cards using the same ideas as presented in the Rom10 freeware written by Penga. No need to buy a FTA anymore, just use whatever you were using on Dishnet before.

I'm told Azria is somehow associated with the infamous Blackbird FTAs (with the built-in self destruct code). If that's the case, it would be good to stay away from them. Then again Pansat do the same thing?

Edit = Tomico has just released working N2 freeware for Atmega (Nov15)

If we could predict the future and answer questions like this, I could retire as I would have made a killing on the stock market. How can anyone answer this?

Charlie has not implemented full Nagra 2 yet. They have an interim measure in play now. For those who are testing, notice that you do not get all channels. A few are still blacked out or scrambled. It's only a matter of time before the next phase is implemented. When - your guess is as good as mine.

dont know what you are talking about man, i get every single one, actually i get more than i did before with N1

[l69norm]

....Charlie has not implemented full Nagra 2 yet. ...

Charlie had full N2 as of end of Sept/ begining of Oct.

[T0R0NT0 M4PL3 L3AFS]

You can include the Atmega card working now! :)

[check_mate]

i have fta now and its great - 1200 channels. my dad has the atmega and i'm not sure what he should do::

buy an fta for 200 OR spend $75 to have the dealer load the tsop etc. i don't have that equipment, but have the atmega skills

[l69norm]

[QUOTE=...buy an fta for 200 OR spend $75 to have the dealer load the tsop etc.[/QUOTE]

For now, just download and use the Atmega N2 freeware available on most of the websites.

[l69norm]

... Nothing free for Bell, Atmega, Rom2/3/11 yet.

In case anyone is interested, ExpressVu has been hacked open now.

[T0R0NT0 M4PL3 L3AFS]

Unfortunately, you can't just download and use the atmega n2 freeware without modifying your receiver first with certain tools that most novice satelite users don't have.

[ISOMSOG]

Yes i would be very interested in Bell being hacked open but no one ever wants to talk about it. I69norm PM me with info please....

[Incall]

dish atmega is out now and bell atmega will be out in the next two weeks.

[check_mate]

i guess the advantage of fta receivers now is that you can use one receiver to get both bev/dish with only 2 dishes/3lnbs.

[21pro]

any new updates?

Mod Note
Note this thread has been resurected from a much earlier date

[Heanchman #21]

This is what's up in the Satellite testing world ... from what I've read ;)

ExpressVu is down on FTA because of the move to Nagra3. I belong to a few Satellite Forums and I've seen nothing about Atmega working so I would call BS on I69norm.

DishNet is still up with Atmega and FTA receivers but they have started their N3 card swap so it will be down at sometime in the future.

DirecTV has not been publicly cracked but you can get a subbed bin for about $50/month ... so why bother?

I wouldn't buy any new equipment right now if I was you. Wait until N3 is fully cracked (if it gets cracked) and see what equipment works.

Cheers.

Always could because they use the same DVB delivery format. The amount of LNB's and dishes depends on what you want to see. If only regular channels then 2 dishes 3 LNB's. If you want HD as well, you'll need 5 LNB's with 3 dishes or 1 regular and 1 large (to get 3 sats).

Cheers.

Does a subbed bin open the PPV's?

??? Uh, I made that post 3 years ago ????

The only thing working on N3 right now is nFusion (minus PPV)

LOL, ... Sorry dude. Thought this was a new thread. :p

True, but disconnect it from the Internet and see how long it lasts.

Not from what I've read.

I still wouldn't for over that amount of money per month.

Cheers.
