New receiver that can connect to the Protek server as well as do CCCAM!

So best of both worlds!

Does it power a motor correctly? I know you dont sell clones, however it does look like a couple of DM's Ive seen. Without saying too much, by connecting to the server, what sats can I receive?

Seems a worthy investment for HD if it is, or a SV HD if they ever make a server lol

Its made by Protek and is based on the shell of the DM500 But inside its been designed by Protek (like lots of receivers are made by one company and sold branded by others like Icecrypt and Octagon etc) Its SD and connects to the Protek server and can also do CCCAM. It will run DiSEqC 1.2 and receive many satellites. I stress its not a clone and I do not sell clone boxes.

Yup, I know its not a clone. I was just commenting on its looks is all. So it connects to the same servers as the 9600ip?

southernsatellite · 26-01-10, 11:37 PM

Yes as the description says!

waqasahmed · 26-01-10, 11:41 PM

Sorry didnt read that. Actually whats the real difference between this and the 9600ip?

Rick · 27-01-10, 10:08 AM

Also in the description Waq, it can run CCcam.

waqasahmed · 27-01-10, 12:00 PM

I thought it may be able to do other things as well, but I suppose its "future proof" as an SD receiver! I thought the 9600ip may have had something to do with IPTV

southernsatellite · 27-01-10, 02:40 PM

The Unix can run any Dreambox App

Thinking about getting one of these.
Does the protek unix 500 use protek 9600 patch software e.g . t63 with keys K30 or does it have its own software and keys. If it has its own software and keys where do you get them from?
