Go to Computer SOS. He sells the best Magboxes and will let have a loan of one to test it.

Originally had a lead from the computer to the television, then upgraded to an android box and then found Computer SOS in Chloraka (near Papantoniou/TopQuotes) and converted to a Magbox and used SOS ever since for computers, printers etc. Latest TV system is excellent - very pleased with the outcome.

My original MAG unit I purchased from Brian (sos) died several years ago, I have one Server from Brian to this day, but I purchased another MAG online from Amazon, it was cheaper even with the shipping.

I did the same Jim, one from a provider in Paphos and the second from Amazon. We run the two boxesfrom the same provider, we pay €6 per month for the second box which I think is very reasonable.

Morning Jim,

Thought of doing the same but changed my mind, you often lose one server due to whatever, so being a sad TV watcher I kept two servers just in case, but your set up sounds a good idea.

The title says 'best value', but I suppose it depends on how much TV you need/watch.

We bought one of the boxes from the shop opposite M&S, just up the hill from George's Optical House

We paid €120 and there are no further ongoing costs which is the 'best value' in our opinion.

:D

Sorry, not sure what we bought, but it enables us to watch UK TV when we are on holiday in CY :)
