FTA Satellite - General Discussions

[Brookstone]

Been meaning to start a FTA thread for discussion without hijacking threads belonging in other sections. After a thread in the B&S section, seems some here have satellites already and others seems interested.
Nfusion Solaris has so far been very good to me. Many choices

Question about being connected to the internet. I keep hearing you should always be connected to the net.
But I'd like to rearrange all the cables I got going on with the tv,dvd etc, will turning off the internet at any times = a big screwup?

When you say turning off the internet, do you mean just unplugging the network cable that goes to the Nfusion box? If so, then no, it doesn't screw it up.
I use my laptop as a bridge with the cable going from my laptop to the box. Almost every night I unplug the cable to take my laptop to my room and plug it back in the next day. Never had any problems.
However, I don't have Solaris. I have the Nova, so I don't know if it makes any difference. I'm not even sure what the Solaris is. Do you know the difference between the two?

Anyone else lose their porn channels on D N ? I think have been moved to N 3. Guess it might be time to buy a nfusion

Damm The Dish Net-Work has finally able to disconnect major channels, thus my Ultra-2000 Reveiver has become useless as i can read that now most of the channels have been transferred to Nagara3Vision? is it a new Receiver?
what is the cost, and TotalFTA would not be able to unblock this lock on so many channels, all adult as well as pay per view channels have gone blank
can some one with experience in this field make me understand what is the solution now? Do we have to buy a new receiver? or the present reveiver Ultra 2000 can be updated to receive so-called N3 Nagravision? Is N3 type reveiver available in GTA? and what is the cost of the same.

Can you suggest any solution to this problem which we are facing since last 3-days now?
Your early reply awaited.

so far its just crappy porn channels ...PPV pron is still up ..and that ain't worth it

How soon the TotalFTA can unlock N3? can anyone put some light on it or we have to buy a new receiver which can receiver with N3 system or whatever you call?

 

[Brookstone]

Thanx Moneyshot, that pretty muc answers my question.

I noticed last night that I lost my porn channels as well. From what I've gather on other boards, you just have to wait, just like we had to wait for the BEV channels to come back. So right now, porn and Intl channels are down.

There is no N3 or Nagra 3 hack available currently. Dishnetwork subscribers have received new purple cards and new receivers, so that the only way to get Dishnetwork through satelitte, (not counting Nfusion), is to subscribe. People in Canada, where Dishnetwork has no licence to broadcast or sell their service may subscribe with a fake US address. All of the FTA systems cannot receive N3 and it could be a very very long time before this system is hacked. A few sites, are claiming to have an N3 hack, but they are not credible, and request your credit card number through Paypal etc, so beware. As soon as a genuine N3 hack is born, everyone will know.

By May 27, 2009 all Dishnetwork Channels will change to N3 for which there is no hack or fix yet. You must subscribe to Dishnetwork after May 27, 2009 to see any channels, PPV and English channels will disappear in gradually in April 2009. Asian channels are the international and have disappeared into N3.

Question:
I have 2 Solaris, upstairs and downstairs. Powerlink connected. But very often, I will get no channels/signals at all from downstairs. Just like now, watching the Bos/Chi game and lost satellite with 2 seconds to go. This usually happens for a bit then will come back on. But upstairs never a problem.
Why is this happening just downstairs all the time and how to fix this?

Do you honestly think their will be no hack for N3? If you "MUST" do anything, just be patient and wait for the fix! Wouldn't hurt to get a FTA reciever with IKS support. Those will be the first ones up.

n3 in europe has been up for 2 yrs with no hack,so yes fta is done

 

[wantoplay]

So does this include the FTA Bell stuff too??

I did not say that Nagara 3 will NEVER be hacked. Who am I? I am not qualified to make such a statement. Nagara 3 will not be hacked anytime soon, it has been solid in Europe for 2 years, Bell is using it successfully. There are several levels of encryption, plus special molecular coatings in several layers on the N3 cards. The person(s) who hack N3 will not do it with algorithms, this will be done by groups with lots of time, money and in a laboratory with inside information. This is not the same game as when N2 was hacked. The notorius hacker, Chris Tarnovsky has for the time being gone over to the dark side, which is not good news for anyone with FTA, but he is not the only person capable of hacking N3.

Its just a matter of time before N3 is cracked. If you can hack into the Pentagon or NASA, you can hack the N3 codes......
My understanding is we have till November for "free" tv.
Wouodn't be surprised if "Dave" suddenly makes a comeback once N3 is fully in play.
