Thanks for the info hope to get running in no time.......

It might be a while before we see new fixes for N3 but we will keep our members updated on any changes and of course when new fixes for N3 come out they will be posted. But i would get some sort of a back up such as true fta dish as we might experience a few months of darkens due to new encryption.
