Hi, I have an existing Sky plus connection at home. Can I use my card in another box or is it tied to the box I have at home?
Thanks,
Seein1

You can use it for the basic six mix channels.

The card is paired to the box for the sports and movie channels.

Hi,
New to this !
Would you be able to watch the recordings from the old sky box by swapping the card ?

It wont work as the card is paired to it's own box.
