A pc server is going to be more stable.. Once configured you can stick it out of the way and forget about it.. No need to ever reboot it..
With a receiver you are going to be installing new plugins, rebooting, testing new images.. Everytime you do this is downtime on your server which affects friends and family viewing..
For years i`ve used different receivers and found myself having to check the server is still online everyday, it was so unstable.. Now I use a cheap, low spec, compact laptop and omnikey..
This is the tutorial i followed and it has been rock solid for me -> Tutorial - Ubuntu Server 11.10, 12.xx, 13.04 x32/x64 - Auto Oscam/CCcam 2.1.3 Install
There is an updated version of this you could try here -> Automated install Oscam
Let us know how you get on buddy..
Cheers master g, if using an old pc how many friends and family could I connect before it becomes unstable, is setting up 2 servers the same process as 1, I'm thinking about running 2 one as a backup just incase 1 is down. Thanks

Hi I'm a bit confused on where to start on setting up a server for friends and family, I've read about dreambox and pc servers, which is best and where do I begin, I've had a look at the Linux section but it's a bit daunting and I'm lost on where I should start. Thanks
