The ethernet service or gift was discontinued a few years ago.

Sorry to tell you but these boxes are not very good at all and as a result they are VERY limited. Better to sell it and get an EnigmaČ based receiver, these are allot more versatile.

These boxes are still extremely good if you understand what they are capable of. The gift was discontinued but other means are readily available and these boxes are relatively easy to use. You might want to start with Google and you will soon see that you have a very good box.

I'm new here and pretty sure that I can't discuss in much detail what i am alluding to. Believe me, there is plenty this box is capable of and they are still used by thousands of people every day. Don't bin it for the sake of doing a bit of reading.

I know exactly what you mean, but the box is still not very good ;)

EPG is crap beyond belief and apart from watching TV there not much else it will do :)
Try an EČ box, you will kick yourself for every buying one :trustme:

I have owned all sorts of boxes over the years., Dreambox, Relook, Duolabs, Tecnomates and Spider box, Currently duo2 in living room and solo2 in family room. My kids use a spiderbox 9000 and 7000 in their rooms. Truth is they are an excellent box for doing what they are supposed to do ie receive, decode and display satellite TV. The build quality is excellent and picture quality is superb. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't be replacing my Vu+ boxes for one for my main viewing but for watching TV solely they are a great box.
