QUOTE(sciguy @ Jan 2 2010, 04:19 PM) I gave a call to CS yesterday regarding to the beyond things. They told me that we are a subscriber since 1996, so they are giving us a much better deal. Everything will be free, decoder, satelite, remote control, installation. And it will be free until april 2010. Is this consider a better deal? How many of you are actually a member since 1996-1998 and get a better benefits than me? everyone here is getting the same deal...free until aprilOk, one more thing, as i might be relocating to another house soon, they told me if i stay with my current package, they will charge me RM150 for relocating. But if i subscribed astro beyong, then they will waive all the fees, i don't know how true is that, or the installer will charge me a fee for installation? I'm about taking all the packages, imagine that i'm now paying RM18x every month. i'm also a subscriber from 1998 as well.... |

QUOTE(prody @ Jan 6 2010, 05:28 PM) Applied online 19-12 mine is 220-222Called them 23-12 T&C 24-12 Installer called 4-1, 6-1 installed (Bukit Jalil) Signal strength quite bad at 155. Anybody have lower then this? He also checked signal strength before installation of new dish with the old dish and it was also around 150. Installer says the concealed wiring is too long (3 storey house) and signal can only be improved by moving dish down. But still looks great on TV and I love the 5.1 Will wait to see premier league before making decision. but i tried other recommend to switch to #18...mine become 185 instead of become stronger...lol weird again |

QUOTE(pay2buy @ Jan 6 2010, 11:08 PM) I'm in the same boat also. if u have 1 decoder...they will give u the white 60CM dish...if u have 2 thn they will give beyond dish with 2 connectorThe installer definitely installed a new white dish instead of the dark grey one. I asked him politely about it and he said there is no dark dish. If you want you could wait some more or call astro to cancel this order (in a bossy tone). wah lau... The smartcard also not activated yet until now. The installer say it wont be long to be activated, he waited for some time and then leave. Call Astro CS 8 hrs later, they said the installer suppose to activate the smartcard after installation directly. Is there by any chance your installer called Mr Lim? if i'm not wrong la cuz my installer also gave the 60CM dish to me....haven't install also...using the old one...the new one kept as spare and yes...the installer should activate it in front of u...mine did it in front of me until his HP come out saying your what what successful thn only he left...will take around 30min -1 hour |

QUOTE(auronthas @ Jan 7 2010, 07:10 PM) They took my old decoder, remote and old smartcard. ya...mine also have a OK button from startAs my earlier post, try to boot (turn off/on), go to satellite setting, see you can see an 'ok' button at channel 1, press ok, under the satellite signal strength page, there should be an 'ok' button, if not, repeat booting. The plug at the back of the remote is for user to remapping /reprogramming , you need to buy the JP1 cable, the one on Astro B.yond remote seems with 6 pin, but other universal remote control such as, OneforAll, there is no pin, just 6 pin-contact on small piece PCB. For more on JP1, see the following link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP1_remote http://www.remotecentral.com/urc9960/index9.htm that's why can change to #18 but now seem cannot change back to #1 i can change actually but when i go back and re-enter...it's still back to #18 |

QUOTE(auronthas @ Jan 7 2010, 08:21 PM) Do you see ok button at satellite signal strength page (#1) ? If yes, after pressing ok, there should be a tick on #1. If not, try to reboot your decoder again. It seems the Dec23 09 is unstable, sometimes it shows up , sometimes not. i'll try that latercuz there is ok button..press it...and it confirms but when i re-enter it...it's back to 18...weird |
