I'd make sure auto updates are turned off if I were you.
Otherwise Infomir might just block your box now they have your number.

Re: Is your mag box a fake ?
Just received verification from Infomir that my Magbox is an original device.
''The specified MAC address and serial number are in our database.
You are using an original device''.
It was purchased from Computer SOS in Chloraka.

Interestingly my box is made in the Ukraine , just like infomir . Do they not have copyright laws ?

Imagine if the police said "Phone up to check if you are on our wanted list"?
How many people would they catch before people realised that phoning up to check wasn't the best idea?

Infomir can remotely disable any of their MAG boxes at anytime they might wish to do so.
Its not worth worrying about.

Re: Is your mag box a fake ?
I think people may be more worried that they can disable Fake boxes..

Re: Is your mag box a fake ?
Snap , I am also thinking of buying a Mag324 . The infomir site does list recommended sites to buy their boxes from and for us in Cyprus list one shop in Nicosia and one in Germany .
Re: Is your mag box a fake ?
Of course SOS was my first thought , but they do not have the model I want in stock .
Re: Is your mag box a fake ?
Posed this question to a techie friend and here's the reply:
''1.Mr Blobys box is NOT a FAKE it was made by infomir for its RUSSIAN sales arm in the days before crimea. it is UNAUTHORIZED but is safe as houses to use .a middle man brought all the stock up ,put in the std stalker software and sold to the west.
2.Stopping auto updates wont help as the box phones home everytime you boot it and loads the list of banned IPTV supplies into the box
3.infomir have zapped china made fake boxes before and made them into doorstops being ex RED ARMY personnel i am not surprised with this action
4.infomir have official agents to buy a box from .if you buy from amazon/ebay then you take a risk to save money https://www.infomir.eu/ where to buy
5.The STALKER software in all real and fake and more to the point android boxes is infomir copyright and they do have the power to disable that went not being used officially''.

I thought at first that this company was in Cyprus.. But I think they just sent to here and lots of other countries.Les Bean wrote: ↑Fri Oct 18, 2019 4:15 pm Within Cyprus this looks like not a bad deal for the same item
