Default Need second patchable receiver...

I need cheapest possible patchable receiver. Preferrably the one I could update over network. In a region of 50 quid.

I saw MVision 9080 NET on eBay for this money from well known dealer. Is this receiver any good or shall I just plump for DM500 (if I could find one for less than 100 squid)?

You can login to Dreambox or TM9100 and download files over FTP.

ahh with you now. Sorry m8 don't know much about those types of receivers. I think you'll be very lucky to get one around that price mark though.

T'Rookie, if you have a network and a router installed, then get a Dreambox, even if it costs a bit more than you want to pay.

I am tempted to buy another Linux satbox (I've got TM9100 already) but trying to keep my spendings to a minimum. I am just completed my driveway project (looks more like a car park really) so a bit short of money.
