  • Optibox Spider channel list

    Hi Guys,


    Have just setup my new Optibox Spider and the channel list is awful!
    Does anyone have a decent Sly UK channel list or an editor I can use to do this myself.


    Am new to all this and have seen the lists in an 800HD se and ***box F5 and both are very good.


    Ane help is appreciated.

  • Whats my IP!!!!

    Hi Guys, Might be wasting my time as I have Sat broadband but have been trying to battle thourgh anyway. At least I will be able to share on my own network as my Ping speeds wont restrict me internally!
    However, after installing Ubuntu 12.04 onto an old PC which was destined for the bin, I have tried several times to access it from outside my network, all unsuccesful.
    I have a Satellite Modem connected to a Netgear router and into my server. Have set a Static IP in my Router and Server for the connection and also setup the standard port forwarding for Telnet, SSH and FTP just to test. However, I cannot connect to my Server from outside the network, not even able to ping, Internally no problem.


    Hope I'm making sense as I am new to this.
    With my setup as above, when I 'ifconfig' I get 37.***.**.*** so I guess that is my IP right? No joy!
    I then removed the Router and plugger directly into my Satellite Modem and when I 'ifconfig' I get 187.***.**.**
    So now, don't know where I am.
    Any pointers would be very much appreciated, although if I am bashing my head against a brick wall having Sat Broadband, a heads up would be appreciated.
    Hate being beaten by something like this and I know one of you guys has the knowledge to assist.
