Welcome to the forum alielsaadi

Well I have no idea if keys are available these days, most freebies are gained using card sharing these days. I would have a good look at this site to see what is available

well my receiver doesnt have a place for cards..and I went to the site.. i found my receiver's number.. and i downloaded the file. Now What?.. Sorry if i'm a pain in the ass. I'm just learning

Card sharing does not involve you having a card slot, it revolves around you paying a subscription to someone running a card sharing server. I do not know what to do with your file but that site should have instructions on what you should be doing.

Sorry Again What Do I need to put the bin file that i downloaded from the site on my receiver?

I do not know your receiver but that site should have loader files available for your stb and should have a FAQ explaining how to do, normally you connect using either a null modem cable or a USB cable run the download software on your pc select the file and switch off the stb and when you power back on the update should take place, but it could be different with that I do not know your stb, it could be different

Are you 100% sure you have the right file?? I can only see two 1500 related files on that site and one is for the Ultra and the other one is 3 years out of date. That one CERTAINLY wont open anything nowadays!

I downloaded the file that was created on 2006 thats the only one up there.. is there any other ones? if there is send me link please

Havent got the faintest idea. That patch isnt any good to you, and seeing as there are recent patches on there it suggests support for that receiver has been long discontinued

 

[alielsaadi]

Umm ok sorry if i bothered you, but what do i do now?Lol

1) buy a receiver with hobby support

2) make do with the free channels

3) pay for a subscription.
