cookj5 Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 My old DSR600 Shaw satellite receiver will soon be inoperable. I need to replace it with a DSR800 receiver. Does anyone have one, new or used that you would be willing to sell? You can reach me with price and contact info at jcmx07@hotmail.com Thanks!

traderspoc Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 Is was told by the person I share shaw with . That we will not be able to get shaw in 2024. Resetting satellite so 800 box I just bought will be useless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezzie Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 True, even an 800 series box will be a boat anchor here at some point in 2024. If you get one, you will have to take it back to Canada to resell it. Shaw Direct don't even sell them anymore, only rentals. If you have an account in Canada and don't currently have any 800 series on your account, they will give you the first one free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panchocuerdas Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 We only have some sports and very few Canadian channels as of today Any alternative will be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Elon's Starlink or streaming 'something'. Or wait a bit and see how the new Kiwisat satellite works out in Mexico. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 1 hour ago, panchocuerdas said: We only have some sports and very few Canadian channels as of today Any alternative will be appreciated I have been streaming https://pluto.tv/en/live-tv/latam-channel-guide which is from Canada. If you open the link without a vpn, everything is in Spanish. If you use a vpn and set it in the U.S. or Canada, all the content is in English. FREE. I like free. It has bridged the gap for me during the entertainment strikes and there is a LOT of content. Usually, I watch the DIY channels but, on Friday night, I watched the movie "Enemy at the Gates". Powerful. There are two ways to watch... either LIVE TV which is appropriate for nearly everything but especially news feeds and also ON DEMAND so you're not dependent on a timetable. Whatever works for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Day Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Here's a solution for satellite alternatives. Buy a streaming device, if you're on a budget I would suggest the ONN TV box on Amazon Mexico. It's about $650 pesos. If you're not on a budget and want to watch 3 or 4 screens at the same time - get the Nvidia Shield Pro. Around $4,300 pesos. Stay away from Firesticks and Fire Cube, Amazon is going to stop supporting Android in 2024. Setup your device (easy, just need a Google account). Get a solid IPTV player from the Google PlayStore. The best free version I've used is XCIPTV player. For about a $30 US lifetime subscription, TiviMate is a great option. Also another great app is Sparkle IPTV player, and it's about $15 for a lifetime, if I remember correctly. Then DM me and I'll send you a link to purchase a high quality service. I'm not a seller or reseller, I just use the service and find it very reliable. It's $10 US a month on a three month plan. They will send you a server address, a username and password. Setup takes about 5 minutes. The whole process is much easier than people think and your yearly costs are a fraction of satellite services. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 .... "Amazon is going to stop supporting Android in 2024" While this has been rumored for quite a while, I'm not sure it will happen then and even if it does it will not cause my Fire TV Stick to quit working immediately, right? Having said that, does the service you talked about liking work on the latest Fire TV Stick 4K? Gracias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracias Amazon is reportedly developing its own operating system, internally known as Vega, to replace Android on its smart displays, TVs, and other smart home products. Vega is based on Linux and uses React Native, which would allow developers to create apps that run on both Amazon's new and old devices. Amazon could start shipping Fire TV devices with Vega as early as next year, and it could eventually replace Android on all of its products.

You should have at least 25Mbs down and a ping under 75-80 ms. You can use this app on the FS to get these numbers. It's called Analiti. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 Not trying to tank someone's sale but.... why would I buy a 3500 pesos 800 receiver that will be useless in Mexico sometime in 2024? Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something? I deleted my post as I just realized that the request was from back in Feb. If they don't have something by now too bad, so sad. We got rid of our shaw service about 7 yrs ago, couldn't justify the cost for watching TV for a couple hours (maybe) each day. Some people just can't live without their sports or soaps or news.
