Firmware are box specific and can ruin boxes if you try to install it on other boxes on which they are not intended to go on.thanks, is It just viark boxes or are any others suitable too?

I am not the best person to answer this question as I don't have much knowledge of these boxes and don't own any of them.I saw somewhere else starsat, mediastar, and icone being mentioned. Do you know if they have suitable firmware and perform similar?
thank you
That was me.Someone did mention earlier in this thread that if you go for some of the other brands that you do not get as long a connection to the server.
ah ok, thanks for that, I'm happy to waitThe software is available on the internet for each type of box, and I think the details of how to put the software on the boxes are available with the box, but do remember sky uk is meant to be going from the viark boxes soon when they change the encryption code, so its still worth getting one if you have multisat or Eurosat, but if its just for sky uk, then you are taking a risk.
same here, my carrier is GLS and there has been no update since 8th Feb, stuck somewhere in Spain.I purchased a Viark 4k 3 weeks ago, and it's been sitting in a UPS warehouse in Madrid for about 2 weeks now, because of Brexit, maybe anyone buying one Germany might be slicker.
Do they just work for sly uk or unlock Europe too?I bought one from Amazon Germany about 2 weeks ago had it in Ireland in about 4 days no problem
Thanks because the item is travelling within Europe. Most possibly the delay is due to Brexit but I am not sure.I bought one from Amazon Germany about 2 weeks ago had it in Ireland in about 4 days no problem
Exactly, I argued with the shop who sent my parcel but they said its Spanish customs who are holding the package and requiring lot of paperwork.UPS states it's held up because of Brexit, I don't see how tricky it is, it's up to HM Customs if they want their tax off me not the Spanish.

yepNope, it's not, theres a shed load of forms to be filled in when e porting from, or importing into the EU from outside the EU.
And similarly with importing/ exporting to/from the UK.
