Since I had informed me on the internet, I knew that one of the Ci + module a new smart card (G9) required of cable Germany. This I wanted to order also the same. Only it's the way that you have to report the serial number of the module that you have bought on cable Germany. Therefore, I had to wait on the module to my new card be able to order.
The delivery of course as usual from Amazon very quickly. The module was there and I had immediately called with cable Germany and ordered a new card. In addition I have to mention that you can have up to three cards with cable Germany! Caution !!! For each card you have to pay the same price but again!
So now part of certainly some possibly insecure before buying the module. The update of the software (firmware). YES! You get over cable Germany the updates for the module! For this you have to channel QVC and the Ci module menu search for new software and, behold, he also takes equal a newer version of the firmware that is installed without problems.
For those who have a Samsung TV, a tip: the module is not detected immediately. I had it more times in and out again taken what was not necessary with security. It is so that the installation does not appear. Therefore, the module poke when the TV and wait for about 10 minutes. Afterwards it would have in the menu under 'Common Interface' appear. My device is a Samsung UE46ES5700.
Pro:
- Cheaper than cable Germany
- Upgradeable (via transmitter QVC)
- Only one remote control
Cons:
- ???
