hi i an mew to the sat side of things really i have done loads of reading over the past couple of weeks and i have opted to try the sat side of things.

can anybody help me out here i was looking at getting the dreambox 8000 for sat and i was wondering what would be the best way for me to get most channels ar at least as many english channels as possible.
i know about the setup and that side of it and having my dreambox connected to my router all the time which is not a problem i also know about the images for the box and all that as i have been a memeber on the cable side of things for a long time.

i would like maybe to be able to pick up the free sat channels and also the sly uk channels but i am not sure what the best way would be for me to go down that road that is why i want the info and advice from some of you on here to help me get started out i am a fast learner and have excellent pc skills and networking skills but just some help advice and pointers would be really good to get me off and running.

the reason i have a dreambox is because i have had a lot of experiance with dreamboxes with the cable networks and also i have the itgate 220 for cable and i was interested into looking into sat
