You can. but want they do is install the sky decoder and then. after they install it. use your dreambox and plug it in. and unplug the sky one out. and keep the sky decoder.

Hardly brain surgery, apply power, connect cables and insert card, maybe you can tell us which details you need.

Spark Max Fibre using Mikrotik CCR1009-8G-1S-1S+, CRS125-24G-1S, Unifi UAP, U6-Pro, UAP-AC-M-Pro, Apple TV 4K (2022), Apple TV 4K (2017), iPad Air 1st gen, iPad Air 4th gen, iPhone 13, SkyNZ3151 (the white box). If it doesn't move then it's data cabled.

you need to go to the yellow button and download SCAM. Then it'll probably work.

maybe it's the type of card you have... some don't work, there's posts on it here.

SCAM 3.52 is the newest I think

What series number does your card have on the front? 17xx or 45xx? Like PC based solutions I don't think 17xx cards will work in the Dreambox reliably.

CCCam is also a far more reliable option and allows easy connectivity with acamd on a PC if you have a DVB-S tuner.

yes, I just advised to use SCAM cos it should just works. CCcam + NewCS work better, but it's a bit of mucking around to get it working.

There is no need for NewCS if you're using CCCam
