I was asking about a white 0963 card. In a previous thread I started Musogeek geek suggested that my card was being hammered by 16 users.

To be completely honest that card would easily handle 30 clients with the correct setup

If you were on a DVB-C or T where there are sometimes only 100 to 130 or so channels then in theory if you had 3 cards you could serve unlimited clients, DVB-S is a lot different as there are hundreds of channels per satellite
Each card will have a maximum amount of ecm requests it can handle simultaneously to avoid any freezing
It will also depend on your upload speed, what card are you asking about ?

I've got a Duo coming next week and like the bh images so 1 question about this image
Do you need to update the bootloader before flashing this one ?
Thanks

Hi bud, can I ask why you want to restart it daily as mine often runs for weeks without any problems, I only need to restart it if I make any major changes

You could first try an inline amp to try to fix the glitching issues, I used one on a dm800 rev J and it worked perfectly
Also it would save you some £££

Open the case and you should find it printed on the motherboard very clearly

Gemini for me, often been going for over 100 days without a problem, use em on my 500, 600 and 7020........blackhole for the 800

musogeek, yes it is all about trust when sharing your local and I've been sharing a long long time but now I only share with trusted friends and we all use either mgcamd or CCcam 2.2.1 on our client boxes.
There are too many scumbags out there that try to reshare your cards.

1st thing is Do Not share with anyone that uses CCcam 2.0.1.1
There is a modified version of it that can re-share your cards even if you don't give a re-share
Be very careful

I don't like vmware myself, I prefer a dedicated machine for the job, sorry I can't help you :(

You mean a vps ?
If so then I am sorry I won't assist because imho they are only for payservers
A true cs enthusiast will run his server from home because he has nothing to hide

Very simple, don't open the webif port to the www

Or if you must then change the default info port from 8082

<listen-port>8082</listen-port>

to something else

<listen-port>12345</listen-port>

And hope they don't guess it :D then just change it to a different port every week

mgcamd is a better client emu than CCcam whan recieving an N Line

I still use my original 7020si and have gemini 4.7 on it, after trying several images that one was the most stable one so I've kept it.

have you tried a different CCcam bin/version

you will find all the plugins in this thread

The days of smartcard unlooping and programming are long gone im afraid :(

you can use different size drives no problem but are you talking about hardware raid or software raid ?

Software raid is inexpensive and you dont need identical drives, will works with EIDE, Serial ATA and SCSI drives and you can mix together whatever types and sizes you have and if you just need mirrored drives software raid is the way that most go
But hardware raid is a lot easier to setup and look after, tbh for a home setup I would recommend to have a spare pc at the ready as I do all my testing on my spare one and if my server went down and a reboot does not bring it back a simple switchover does the trick, also an ubuntu server with oscam and whatever else can easily be setup in a couple of hours :-)
hope this helps you decide what to do

and I've tested both card readers and found the omnikey to be the better, used in oscam the ecm times are lower and once setup correctly there will never be a problem, my oscam is now running 23 days since reboot with 2 omnikeys

I've tested em all and have to say CSP is by far the best one for cacheing, oscam can be hit and miss and very unstable with all the restrictions imposed on it with additions to the config etc
CCcam is fine if you just want to stick in your card, add some clients and go on holidays for a week lol, it will keep going, but if you want to have some fun, it's time to upgrade
My oscam is stripped down to bare bones and I don't use ecm whitelist anymore and it reads the cards for csp and now is really stable with good uptime

I can't argue with that lol

From building 2 (where VU Duo is located), I have ports 21, 23, and 80 showing as open....not much good for CS I presume....

Probably not, I would assume those ports are forwarded to the VU on building 2 so they would only be open on router 2

you could try forwarding port 12000 on router 1 to the ip addy of router 2
then on router 2 forward port 12000 to the VU

Something freaky like that might actually work lol
