Hi
cable (kabel) or satellite? I bought a Dbox2 sat from ebay as a cheap dreambox, worked great but flashing etc was hard work as most of the support forums / sites were in German.
good luck

cable...
was a b?t@h to set up,
but works a treat now,
it plugs into my computer network
streams meadia to and from pc, you can watch tv in another room on your computer and control it fully with your pc.
seems a good buy, but picture can be very glitchy at times
and a few channels not avaliable

My Advise is make sure you get a Nokia DBox 2 not sagem or anyother boxes price doesnt matter the cheaper the better !!!

The reason I say get Nokia not Sagem is the Nokia have 2 cpu Sagem have 1 this means less stable.

Hope this helps.

Where do these German sellers pick up the unmodified DBox's does anybody know and what price is one likely to pay, wouldn't mind having a bash at setting one up from scratch if I could get it cheaply.

hi there from what i have been told they are really made fro use out there in germany so hence they pick them up cheap mod them and sell em at a very good profit on eeeeeebay to the uk posse !! oops anyways they are going up to about ?130 +pandp about ?22ish however if u keep an eye out you could pick one up cheaper on a bid now, etc.
also dont know if this is true but they seem to be a lack of these now in germany hence thats hiking the prices up as well.
ps finally got one as well should be here this week - cant wait to have a dabble ....

there are a few posts in here about what dbox2 to get the bottom line is though personal preference. from what i've read there are very little differences between nokia and sagem boxes. the only one that seems to be totally shunned is the philips.
so as long as you grab a sagem or nokia its all good!!

I'm looking to buy my first DBox 2.
Can anyone advise me on what to get.
I'm looking to buy on Ebay but there are so many various models and prices and warnings of fake Dream box's, I'm totally confused on what to get.
The Dream site sells the DBox 2 500 C for ?149 plus ?20 postage. It doesn't state what make the box is! But warns of cheap fakes from Germany that don't last long.
One Ebay seller is pricing the DBox DM500C at ?59.99 plus ?25 postage, it doesn't state that this is this a DBox 2, is that why it's cheap ?
Another is pricing a DREAMBOX DM 500C DBOX 2 STARVIEW DBox2 EUROVOX
at ?119 plus ?11 postage and claims this has a UK IMAGE FOR CABLE READY TO SCAN AND PLAY, what does that actually mean ?
Again no model / make was mentioned.
Any help on buying much appreciated.

If they are selling a Dreambox 500c for less than ?120 thats very dodgy. Probably a fake box or a con.

Best method is check fleabay a couple of times a day and you could be lucky. In past month I have got 3 Sagem Dbox2s for members of my family for less than ?90 inc postage. Right place at right time I suppose. As a bonus all 3 were x2 chips. Even better

hello mate i am thinkinf of gettin one as well but not sure how much to pay for it, wat do u recond they are to many of them and diffrent prices so wat sort price i should be payin ?I just got one from Germany for 63 euro's + 23 euro's delivery, about ?58, it's in debug mode and english, you need to look on the German Ebay site and use a translater site to check out the details. be shure they post to the UK first or ask for a price.

guys look very carefully i got mine from this guy with a buy it now price - i got mine for 100quid buy it now off him he has loads on auction which go for alot more now (hes clocked on) best thing is to keep looking - or its a long shot but send the gus a message and make him an offer - worth a try - worse thing he can say is no !!

my box was delivered in 5 days after my payment cleared, it's not used it's in the origanal box, go to the german ebay site via the " Advanced Search " option and select seller that will post to uk. the price is from 46 to 90 Euros, postage is 23Euros. read the feed back first! mine is working in the other room for ? 57 look and thou shalt find.
good luck

what a load of crap!!!!!!!!

nokias dont have 2 cpu's.

they have 1.

they have 2 FLASH CHIPS also some sagems do aswell. just as the majority of sagems only have one it doesnt mean they are less stable,just means that they can take an extra few minutes to flash.i actually prefer sagems had 3 and never had any bother with them

also for the prices,some people paying 100+ quid plus for a box upto 9 years old............wtf.

why?????????when u can get a dreambox brand new,12 months warranty,twice as small and more powerful

Hi all

I bought a nokia Dbox2 from ebay last year in febuary, and never had a problem with it. it came from germany and worked strait out of the box.

Thanks

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the sagem boxes and to be honest they our in my eyes better than nokia,nokias can be tempermental as hell and sometimes a b-@ch to flash ,get the sagem for as much as ?60 cheaper and you still get the same end product,, free tv
