kungu

am looking for nice HD satellite meter probably trimax like the one you are using. kindly direct me where to get one or even it is importing. (prefer trimax SM2500)

Good Evening,

I got the Trimax sat finder from Dubai.
I sent someone who was going to Dubai for shopping.

I initially wanted to purchase Satlink ws 6922 which handles both DVB-S & DVB-S2 from Aliexpress>>> Wholesale satlink ws 6922 - Buy Low Price satlink ws 6922 Lots on Aliexpress.com

You can still get a cheap sat finder like satlink 6906.....Costs around kshs 9000 minus the freight

Thanks Kungu. My Orange mobile broadband USB 3G modem is HUAWEI Mobile Broadband Model: E1752. I have
access to 2 other modems from my workplace. The oldest and slowest is HUAWEI model: E160E and a new ZTE
MF192.
I have noticed that the latest firmware for DIR 412 router is version 1.15 which has HUAWEI E1752 on its
compatibility list.
I am certain that my router failed to work because I did not set it up properly. Even on my PC, the INTERNET LED
does not turn green. Kindly show me step by step on how you set up your router with your Safaricom 3G modem
first on the PC and then later on the receiver (SRT 4922). I will appreciate your kind assistance.

PS: I failed to register as YAKO which I use on another forum. I was told that name is already taken, so I ended up
registering as YAKO2.

Good Evening Yako,

Sometimes the Internet light turns yellow if your modem has run out of data bundle.

Switch off your router.

Insert your internet modem on the D-Link DIR 412 usb port.

On D-Link DIR 412, look for the Toggle switch and move the switch to 3G.

Power on your receiver and wait for about 2 minutes, if the internet led light does not turn green, you will need to set the ISP setup manually via browser.

Currently i am using TP-Link -pocket MR3020 modem router connect via ethernet cable onto TP-Link WR740N wireless router>>>>>

TP-Link MR3020 is connect to the wireless router internet port via Ethernet cable connected onto LAN port (blue in colour)
The are 4 LAN ports (yellow in colour) on the wireless router which i use to distribute the internet access via Ethernet cable to the PC and satellite receivers.

PC settings>>>

• • 1Click the "Start" button. Then click the "Control Panel" icon on the Start menu. This will open the Control Panel window.

  • 3Double-click the "Network Connections" icon in the Control Panel window to open the Network Connections window.
    
    
    
  • 4Locate the connection whose wireless router settings you want to find in the Network Connections window. Right-click on the connection. Then click "Properties" from the context menu. This will open the Wireless Network Connection window for that connection.
    
    
    
  • 5Click the "Wireless Networks" tab in the Wireless Network Connection window to switch to the Wireless Networks page. In the preferred networks section of the Wireless Networks page click the name of the router whose settings you want to find, then click the "Properties" button. This will open the properties window for that connection and display the wireless router settings.
    
    
    My settings on Windows 7
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    

You can also connect the Modem router directly onto the PC to access the rotuer settings.

Good Morning,

I had been requested to compare Strong srt 4922 HD versus SuperBox S 750 HD which i purchsed from pakistan.

SuperBox S750HD is way ahead in terms of technology.

SuperBox S750 HD is the the family of Spark satellite receivers which include receivers like Amiko Alien, Golden Media spark, Startrack 2020 plus HD, Dynavision Spark plus , etc.

In spark receivers the are 2 main types running on either ST 7162 chipset or ST 7111

Superbox s750 is a interactive digital set-top box based on Linux operation system and STi7111 chipset.
The product supports full HD function, enables high definition and standard definition on DVB-S/S2 and supports both MPEG-2 and MPEG4/H.264.


The receiver is dual boot meaning that you have the option to choice from 2 operating systems, mainly Spark & Enigma 2 used in Dream box,Vuo plus other Linux based receivers.
Its like runnigg Windows or Linux on your pc or laptop.

Snap shots of some of the main futures on Spark operating system>>>

Webtv Plugin offering IPTV>>>

Portal Plugin offering, Video, Music, News, Opera, Sports plus more links>>>

Other futures include opera browser, Shout cast, Online weather plus Firmware upgrade>>>

As i touched on in the beginning the SuperBox S750 offers a dual boot option.
It is quite easy to use.
To switch from Spark to alternative Enigma2 software you press the ok button on the front of while turning on the box.
When it says Forc on the display you can choose which firmware to use by using the channel up down keys.
The receiver remembers your choice until you change it again.

Plus More.

In short, the Spark receivers are way advanced and offer more.

New firmware for Spark receivers will have SuperIPTV.

Keep you posted.

Off to Work>>>>>
