[welshpaddy]

whats the score with the gift

[hosemaria]

Got one from dealer in Manchester ...Working well same channels like other Spiders with IKS of VASIK.
many to watch...

[Dr. House]

I heard that you can only put 1 sealion instead of 10 like in Spider9000, is that true?!?

[captainglassback]

and a 6000 channel limit!!! The (less than) 10000 limit on the 9000HD is the 9000's only weakness for my use.

[chopper1]

surprising the channel limit is not equal to the 9000 receiver, i would like to know if its a single or twin tuner and is that true about only 1 line not up to 10 lines as my current 7000 has
Anyone know the price?

[rabbitseggs]

seen it at £99

[lonewolfe]

Is it part of the Spiderbox range or some sort of clone?

[joshjess]

Its part of Spiderbox range

[2colby]

They are on sponsors site at £89, for anyone interested. Regards, 2Colby.

[Thom]

Is IKS included in box price or do you have to get it separately?

[2colby]

A call to Lee at Goldwafers would probably answer that for you, unless another member has the answer. Regards, 2colby.

[shamonemf]

For that price seems really good

hosemaria, can you confirm.
Does it come with 1 year of iks installed? included in the price?

[SHARK 2]

IKS firmware Spider box HD 6000 Has been uploaded on another forum. I have downloaded waiting for delivery of my box.
To load the software you will need to use a USB pen and once loaded press menu, followed by 1111, and enter network menu and highlight IKS and press connect
All this seems similar to my old HD9000

Trust this helps
Ps I first saw your post Satcat and within a hour I had ordered a box. If this box is no good I will be able to blame you Ha Ha

Best regards SHARK2

Would appreciate your feedback when you have it up and running.

well no answers on how many sea lions,i think no answer means only one sea lion

[gbmitie]

not on the usual site and seen nothing from darkman so more than likely a clone

[joshjess]

Up to 8 lines and its NOT a clone

[bob]

All posts about this box on the other forum, are being deleted.

[shamonemf]

[hosemaria]

It is a SpiderBox Range but Different CPU only.

Correct...

it's even true, in Forums are not only Hobby people, but even basters and Spies looking only for troubles.. Specially in that forum some one is talking ( investigators - Competitors and all their Dogs Company done every thing to kill Spiderbox ) that's maybe some one is trying to stay underground to gave more life to Spiderbox people.

Here is the truth from who has the box .

[gbmitie]

[^^COMPASS^^]

Picture quality is great in my opinion :king-042:

[gbmitie]

Is it as good as the 9000hd? I should have put that in:redface:

[maggie]

hopefully you have received the 6000hd by now,,,,,,any chance of a review on the functionality , useability,,,,ect

[Aldo]

I have just seen this info posted by William-1 on the other forum ref Spiderbox 6000 channel lists:

Please Note:-

The current Spiderbox HD channel lists are only compatible with the original Spiderbox HD 9900, 9000 & 7000 versions using the UDB file system.
The UDB files will not work on the new Spiderbox HD 6000

The Spiderbox HD 6000 High Definition Satellite Receiver & Smartbox HD 6000 use an SSU file system,
The SSU file system is not compatible with the other the Spiderboxes HD 9900, 9000, 7000 UDB file system or visa versa.

Posted by Anrakh:

No, it's no clone - it's a new box.

jimihendrix added:

I will add that the HD6000 which I've had for a couple of weeks has impressed me greatly, it's very small footprint means you can site it almost anywhere the picture quality is great, it has both wired and wi fi connections and there have already been two software updates.
I am very please with it.

[SHARK 2]

hopefully you have received the 6000hd by now,,,,,,any chance of a review on the functionality , useability,,,,ect

Yes very pleased with 6000Hd
I have been trying to build a channel list to suit my needs, it will be good if a channel editor becomes available.
wiFi Ok
IKS OK With more opening than I expected
set up with Sat scan v/good

As I have been using 9000Hd for several years getting around the new menu is Challenging

At my age I update different sections over each day HaHa

For the price I can't see why anyone can go wrong

Best regards SHARK 2

[^^COMPASS^^]

I have found a few minutes to take some pictures ;)

[^^COMPASS^^]

Here are a few more :grouphug:

[hosemaria]

2) In Standby it Turns ON . ( was s/w problem only )
FIX

12) Menu - Key Edit - edit a key , turn off receiver, then turn on , key has changed to previous key . If you have added it then it has disappeared .
FIX

13)ADV timer problem, if you try to save two timer events which are consecutive you get "Exceede max tp event" error.
Example : program 1 start 08.00 end 09.00 program two start 09.00 end 10.00 result error.
Example : program 1 start 08.00 end 08.59 program two start 09.00 end 10.00 result OK.
FIX
16)Menu - Image Backup
User database - Backup All - Softcam key
Need download softcam key file in receiver
FIX

This come from one developer he say has put this software in test today. But will be public tonight or tomorrow.

================================= ================================= =====================
Got this from different forum just now ! Looks very fast fixing things ..

[mehdigoli]

hi,
although i have loaded the latest software, when i turn it off it comes back on .can some one let me know if this is the case?. thanks

[mehdigoli]

sorry, i forgot to say the exciting software.

[goonner]

mehdigoli see post 45 fix will be out soon

[2colby]

hi,
although i have loaded the latest software, when i turn it off it comes back on .can some one let me know if this is the case?. thanks

Did you do a factory reset before and after the update?, that sorted it for me. But don't forget to save your channel list first.

[mehdigoli]

sorry i did not factory reset before and after. i will wait for the new software. many thanks for your help

They never fail in the prommeses ..Thanks to Team Involve.

[seosfrdebru]

:respect-023:Hi just wondering if anyone had success with the fix for reciever re-booting problem using the patch as suggested in post 51 above. Tried it myself this morning but didn't fix it for me at least (and yes I do believe I followed the correct procedure: including the two factory resets). Is there anything obvious I'm missing I wonder? thanks in advance.:applause-038:

[skomedal]

Try again without the factory resets.
Worked for me.

[Barney]

just ordered one of these Spider6000 HD to replace my faulty old Spider9000HD
i ordered it here with Satpimps Sponsor @ Goldwafer.com

i believe it was Goldwafers where i bought the now faulty Spider9000HD i cant fault the service from goldwafers i mean at least 3 OR 4 or so years and box [ Spider9000HD ] came with only a 1 year guarentee and i manged to get about 4 years outta it ..and the tuner is dead now but im ok with that it had a real good long life so no complaints here from me and im due an upgrade as Spider9000 HD is pretty much history and not easy finding one nowadays anyhow so that for me is good enuff reason to upgrade to the newer Spider6000HD
hopefully there is no issues delivering to Rep.Ireland ?
my order went thro' successfully at least .
Reading this thread here has just been a huge reason why Satpimps is such a great informative Sat forum you guys deserve massive Respect thanks to every one of you that posted in this thread its been a superb help to me in making my decision to buy this box .

All i want with Spider6000HD is a card slot and Home network sharing and ability to use N lines just like old Spider9000HD that is the only thing im not just 100% certain about .

---
cheers Barney

[Barney]

I just read post #1 again by Satcat and i see Spider6000HD it has card slot


One smart card slot

can someone confirm if it has CAM slots or not ?
it dont really matter so much about CAM Slots just curious .
and maybbe someone can confirm if it works with Home share and N lines like the 9000HD does ??

Thank you guys .

1 card slot, no cam slot

it will take up to 8 (I think) c or n lines

dont think it does homeshare

[Barney]

Thanks manic01 and echelon usefull info indeed
so if i have box on my network and wish to set up N line to say my TM5402 M2 HD this wont be possible then ?

couldnt agree more about 9000HD it was good box for the money and served me well over the years .
wont be worried about channel editor as Spider6000HD is just for a fixed dish
great info here as i said and thnxs for feedback much appreciated guys .

great info here as i said and thnxs for feedback much appreciated guys .

so what you are actually asking is if it can be used as an n line server like the 9000 and 7000 can ?

no idea is my answer, although you could use a linux box with oscam for that task and have the tm5402 and the spider 6000 just as receivers as both can receive n lines

maybe somebody else knows if it can be used to serve out n lines ?

[Barney]

Thats the million dollar question echelon mate right there in a nutshell m8,
can spider6000 HD be used to serve out n lines ? even to a box on my local LAN ?
hopefully someone that has this box can answer this but if not i guess i will find out for myself in the coming days : )

[Roadrunner]

It does not have the option to share your lines yet, only client now (very good with nlines and clines). Currently I have to use a card splitter to share with a box in the bedroom. I hope it will be added with some of the future updates. as it is well supported box

[pbrooks]

Here is the truth from who has the box .

how did u you set up server plexxxxx help

For moment No. from what i know..But even old Spiderbox had not in fist start all functions.....

Your Answer is NO for moment
That not mean can not be in future..........

[Barney]

Thanks for your reply Darkman .
Its ok my old Spider9000HD gave me a great run for its money i mean it was around sept 2009 when i bought it so thats very close on 4 years it lasted
ive never had a box that lasted more than 3 years even so in reality its not all bad and it still works perfectly ok except the tuner is no longer working good ,
i guess the Spider9900HD is same scenario aswell then only client box ?

im not upset by any means and sure i'll be very happy with Spider6000HD and i am happy to hear any feedback at all
and also i'd be happy enuff to buy a Spider9900HD aswell if it does the biz as in server/client like spider9000HD ?
cheers ,

Barney

[blackdevil]

Spiderbox 9900HD can act like server & client .

For Spiderbox HD6000 ,you will have to wait the updates .....
