they are literally both identical just different brands and the F3 has a slightly better tuner, Pretty much work the same though
-
thanks for your reply mate. what about cccam client work better on ***box f3
-
and the eagle 800 hd vs ***box f3 wich are good
-
cccam works very well on the F3 and is very very easy to set up
-
You cannot use the F3 as server, like you can on s10, also the usb access is on the front and is a pain if you got your dongle stuck out were the little darlings are(kids).
There is also much more support for the s10 and the remote on the s10 is ver3, 10 times better than the one with the F3. -
the big plus for the F3, particually if you live in a fringe area is the tuner, which has much better gain that the S9,10,11

thanks mate for your reply, what about the eagle box 800 hd is better than f3

'better' is a vague term, what is better to one may not be to another, some people consider better 'still able to do the job, for the least amount of money', whereas others would prefer to pay more for an improved epg, recording options among other things.
Think about what you want out of a receiver, list those requirements and then we will be able to give you a 'better' (in this case better refers to more informed answer).
Personally I don't like the Open/***boxes and would recommend people spend a little more on a Dreambox, Gigablue or even the New Dvb stb's our sponsor sells, whereas others would say the Openbox is better, as your still getting the same channels.
I hope you can see the point im trying to make :)

For anyone interested it is a very simple job to fit the USB to the rear, Maplin sell a PCI insert which has 2 USB sockets on it for £3.99 which will do 2 ***box F3's. Simply remove one of the Sockets and fit it were the RS232 connector is, it is a 5 Minute job. I intend fitting a small 4 port USB hub internally (poundland) £1 slightly concerned about power consumption but i will let you if it works out.
