Box prices from about £110 to £160 depending on what model you get. As an example the DRS2 4K is £159 and once you update the firmware you get free access to the ******** server for 3 years which clears the above channels and many more on different sats. Only cost initially is the box.
cons - no fancy bouquet or fully populated epg, viark DRS2 4K not the best for motorised dish viark Sat 4K better.
- sat 4K not android (DRS2 is android)

I have the DRS2 4K as it enables me to load my Iptv sub on it as a backup, it drives a motorised dish okay after fitting a different LNB I had to use an Inverto Black Ultra 0.2db and no issues apart from I need to go from a vertical to vertical channel when moving the dish it doesn’t like going from vertical to horizontal channels.

From what I've seen its best to have a motorized dish as sky UK isn't as stable as card share used to be.
From some of the comments if a sat channel goes down it auto switches to the IPTV server.

I have a nvidia shield for my iptv and also a solo 4k. I only bought this box to play with. Seems a lot of people are talking about them.

Let us know how it goes and what channels you receive, I am sure many other members would be interested too.

If I had just paid £160 bills for this box, I would be checking it out to see what channels that can be received and have a good look through it, but each to their own, I suppose, good luck with it though, if theres any other members that have one of these boxes, then feel free to share any info on them.

Works like a dream if it lasts for 3 years is always going to be a gamble but I guess after 3 months it’s paid for itself

Quality is awesome tbh
From reading on other places those who have it have said it can randomly stop working for few days sometimes.
Doubt we will ever see it on E2 boxes.
But too much of a risk and gamble getting such a box with that server.

Seems the sly uk clearing of channels on these boxes will be short lived according to the team that originally did this.

Yes heard that tonight luckily I have motorised dish so plenty alternative channels that will still clear. I definitely wouldn’t be buying one for a fixed dish though.

Never thought it would last tbh as not c/s.
Agreed these types of boxes only of use if you have euro sats system be multi lnb or motorised setup otherwise utterly pointless.

Are the channels like IPTV(ie couple mins behind) or is it like cable/sat c/s kike back i n day?
