  • Im new and i am building a server using cccam and oscam (most probably ill be using debian)


    I read in a forum that for cccam the smargo is the best card reader to use.


    If i connect my cards to the smargo and then to a hub will the ecm time increase ?


    or would it be better if i use the usb extensions and connect from the pc directly to the smargo?

  • kemestri rite there cheap as chips!!!but if u have alrite got smartgo buy powered hub trust me. omnikey were to buy [url=http://www.sat-shop.co.uk/CAMs,-Cards-and-Readers-Programmers-and-Interfaces/c40_143/p281/Omnikey-3121-Cardman-USB-Smartcard-Reader/product_info.html]Omnikey 3121 Cardman USB Smartcard Reader ₤9.99 FREE UK DELIVERY[/url]

  • Horses for courses mate but if your going to use the Smargo use Powered Hub as Rocket suggests, you can see a 25 - 50% drop in ECM times!


    Either way there a tweaking/configurations that can be done to readers


    But all the info is on here dependant on your provider
