Default Help!!!!!!

Im thinking of getting a eurovox box, i need to get a virgin media connection but when i do the post code checker it come up with.... "You're not in a fibre optic area, but can still get our brilliant broadband down your phone line.


With Virgin Broadband you can get the fastest broadband we can deliver down your phone line, up to 20Mb. Then, you can simply add any extras you want, including home phone"

does the eurovox box effect my download limit??

can i still get a eurovox box if so what will i need and what is the best one to get? do they do HD box's
Thanks

I don\'t think the Eurovoxes will work in a fibre optic area.

Yep, read the forum lots of info on it.

In a nut shell, VM have a new encryption system called nagravision 3.
At the moment there is no way to "hack" this.
It's been out in europe for the past 2/3 years and no one has done it - Rumours say it has but nothing main stream.

Depending where you are, see my pre post. It may be worth buying a duel cable/sat box, for when the cable goes off you will be able to get freesat?

Hope this helps mate, but i wouldn't go buying 1 if its only a month or so when the switch over hits your area
