Mag 520

Post by MacManiac »

My old Mag box (256) is struggling a bit, and I’d like to change it for a more modern one. According to Infomir, the 300 and 400 series has been discontinued and the current model is the 520. My tv provider confirmed that box was compatible with his system and put me in touch with a local agent, who quoted €160, which seems a bit steep. I’d love to buy locally but cannot find a legitimate supplier. Any suggestions gratefully received? I know Amazon supply them but it is such a hassle.

Is there any way to see the “Public” website in English?

I have some at 130, price should come down to 120 or 110 in about 7-10 days.

Hi Digby , I am assuming that the 520 is compatible with your network as I need to update my old box. Will email you as I am out in just over a weeks time.

I also have a Mag 256 but want to upgrade. Should I get Mag 520 or Mag 520w3?
