What Do I need to set up IKS on A Captiveworks 800s

[Bossdodge187]

I can get a captiveworks 800s for cheap, just wondering what is required to set up IKS with this thing? Any help would be appreciated

You will need the dongle and a PS code, and you will find the file needed in the file sec.

Even cheaper, you can use your own PC as a dongle.

a dongle is less that 40 bucks on amaz*&^% , and you dont have no updates installing,no blue-screens, virus
less headache,just plugin and setup.. taddaaa.
and you saves current running a pc all day and next to your 42' tv ????? nahhh

I do think that having a PC hook to the Power all day is expensive.

Depending on how your pc/laptop runs using the rs232 cable might slow it down to get the channels. Yes I agree on getting a usb Dongle which gives you the best option and speed to get the channels to come up faster. You can even buy a wifi bridge and use it wireless and use a 5v adapter to the wifi bridge adapter so you can still utilize the usb port for PVR.

is there anything stopping the use of the CW brand dongle? like just a USB-Ethernet wire adapter? or a USB hub with ethernet plug?

or does it have to use the null serial?

i see cheap adapters like these
Serial RS-232 adapter - RJ-45 (F)?

i pulled my captiveworks out of the closet and trying to get it working again,i purchased a usb serial cord,the japan fix and now ready to get a p$ but now how do i get it all working,my sat store doesn't sell dongles,do i still need this.

You need to take the time and read on your box and look at the sit . The info is her for you. Also it would help to give all your info of your setup . Then start a new thread.

cw800 iks still up? got mine out of the closet and wanna play with it...

Some channels r up. If it can't get the mpeg4, then not much use on sat 110, but 119 will still work, for now.
Good luck
