THE Weather Forecaster Guide


At the present time and the foreseeable near future there is no standalone N3 fix for fta receivers. The only way to get TV on ANY FTA stb is to utilize something called IKS. What this does is hook your FTA unit up to the internet by using what is refered to as a hub, dongle, or in this case...the Weather Forecaster

you can find a place to purchase one by google-ing the words "vs weather forecaster" or search for it on ebay

What do you need?

- Weather Forcaster
- Router
- Modem
- Internet Capability

Note: Any wireless bridge will also work for the purpose of the weather forecaster as very little data is transmitted.

Would it be better to just run a long Cat5 or do the Bridge thing?

The Weather Forecaster will be plug n play, however, setting up wireless bridges is NOT!

I would think it would be much better to set any device up with WIRE first, once working, add your bridges. You do not have to run wires all over the place, but to run One to test and get setup.

What Viewsat receivers will it work on?

It WILL work with the Ultra, Ultra Lite, MaxHD, 9000HD, and Pro PVR

It will NOT work on the Platinum series, Xtreme, or VS7000PVR units.

Files will NOT come out all at once. They will trickle in. The first 2, will be the Ultra and Ultra Lite. Others will follow during the next couple weeks. I will NOT give definite timelines as we know what happens to those.
