Dont really no which way to turn

She means the netid.

You will need to change this yes, but its relatively easy to do, and if necessary we can cross such a bridge as we come to it.

For £85, seems rediculously overpriced, may have to give it a day or so, but keep you eye on ebay, try searches like:

ntl cable box, pace cable box, virgin cable box etc etc..

You could also look for a pace 2000, 4000 or 4010, best bet is to find the area you are in, because some boxes won't work in certain areas.

There is pure ntl, ex-cable&wireless and ex-telewest. Depending which area you are in depends upon which box to get.

Best bet for you would be to read the novice angel guide in the downloads section.

This will tell you:

Your area, boxes that work in your area, how to mod the boxes, etc etc

Thanks so much! The listing for £85 the box already could pick up the channels etc. I cant find the download section where is it? If i do get a pace box what else do i need to purchase for doing the card? Thanks Chris
