2. DVB board
- you may choose any type of DVB board . Pay attention to the fact that many DVB boards do not last
for permanent usage and they suffer damages within the first month. If you haven't
purchased a DVB board we recommend the Pent@net board from Pentamedia.
3. Satellite dish / LNB
- a 60 cm dish meets the necessary requirements.
- we recommend a 0.6 LNB if you use off-set dishes or 0.7 LNB if you use parabolic dishes.
Advantages:
• We use the standard technology allowing a great variety of DVB equipments and operating systems.
• Due to the VPN connection, all software of the DVB board computer will access internet at a download speed of up to 1.5 mbps (including MIRC, MORPHEUS,etc.)
• The same due to the VPN technology you will have a download speed varying from 0.4 to 1.5 mbps with only 33.6 kbps uplink. It is still very important that your ISP uses a quality international network.

Dish
The dish size you need (in centimeters) depends on your location.
Check the map to see what dish size you need for a specific location.
For instance: locations of the area labeled as "50 dBw" need a 60 cm dish.
EIRP value. Dish size in cm.
50dBw 60
48dBw 75,5
45dBw 106,7

40dBw 240
DVB cards/Modems High Speed Internet work via an a-symmetrical connection.
That means that you will need a satellite receiver (DVB/IP PCI Card or USB Device)
for the downstream and a conventional ISP connection (by telephone line, cable or LAN) for the upstream.
