Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Some people got a raw deal when they bought the spiderbox towards the end of support but all i can say that i had 2 years with very little problems and its still going strong

Yes the last few months were sad and kind of ruined the image of the spidey. For me it is a great box, but eventually it will be a brick like my Mvision and Techi 1000.

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Like thecrazybandit I also had 2 very good years from my Spider and still going strong, I have never had any problem other than the odd re-boot to clear it after a lot of editing channels. For me it has been a very good buy and I have learned a lot despite it maybe not being as versatile as a dreambox or other linux receivers.

Mobley.
I have been experiencing a few glitches/freezes lately so I'll take your advice and revert to the March 2012 patch and see if it helps.
I will report back.

Don't forget to do a double factory re-set and save your settings.

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

But dont you all think the end to the support came quicker due to the 9900 HD having a significant design flaw with a F100 failure rate 10 times higher than the 9000 that made retailers with draw it from sale,so it would make sense that they would try and bring out a new model that people would feel confident in buying a spiderbox again.

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Hi I am new here.
Found out and dusted off my spider 5000 sd last used with the gift.

This is all pretty new to me but I have entered cline as per info found on this forum.

It tells me I have a connection but nothing is clearing. I have tried a few over the last few days sometimes around 4/5pm just after they are published but getting nothing not even with glitching.

Is there anything I am missing? the fact I have a connection makes me feel I have entered the cline correctly.

Help appreciated

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Yes your are right up to HD9000 the box was fine but after that the HD9900 was a big problem with lots of people unable to fix the f100 problem so returning their box for a refund

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

hi kerve and welcome

If you have connection with *** cards, the cline is ok.
Some tips:
- see http://www.satlover.eu/forum/all-oth...work-help.html
- if you have more usefull posts (I think 10), you'll have access to other (normally better and less used) clines, so contribute a bit here and you'll find out

Although I find it strange that nothing's opened, not even with glitches/freezes ...

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Thanks, I have looked at those links

It doesn't say I have a connection to any cards, just that I have a connection.

I am thinking next move might be to reset to to factory default and see if that helps.

hi

hope you don't need them, but before you reset always take a back-up of your settings/channellist/... - one can't be too sure ...

You say 'dusted off my spider 5000' does that mean you have not used it for
a long time, the clines might connect but maybe your channel list outdated,
you might even have to do rescan, do you get all the FTA channels correctly?

[kerve]

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Its been maybe a year or 18 months since I last used it.

I do get the fta channels correctly though.

would not do factory re-set, you will lose data.

this might help

Taking a random cline from the free cline area

C: cccam.satlover.com 6658 86854A67_36FC8D30 www.satlover.com no { 0:0:3 }

Menu
Network
Client Setup

Select an empty line
Type :- CCCAM
Name or IP Address:- cccam.satlover.com (note do NOT enter the C (when you have typed it in hit exit on remote control and OK to save)
Port:- 06658 you can use the RC to enter this
ID:- 86854A67_36FC8D30 (note the underscore in the middle and use the FAV button to toggle between upper and lower case)
Password:- www.satlover.com (exit and OK)
Apply:- hit OK

ignore no { 0:0:3 }

Best is to grab a Cline shortly after they are published

Give it a few minutes to connect and it is better to turn off the "gift"
============================
always best to have more posts,
more posts = equal better line.

Hi isn't the 5000 only digital box if you are trying to connect to hd channels the box cannot decode them.
