I know my Ipbox is now 3 years old and has several disadvantages over more modern Linux boxes such as the VU+ etc. IE
1) You cant run Cccam emu on this box as it has a SH4 processor (actually Oscam is better anyway)
2) The interface is a little dated and clunky
BUT
a) The Picture Quality on this box is second to none!
b) Using Oscam SH4 Stapi with this box you can decode any Newcamd N lines or Cccam C lines.
c) Using Oscam you can easily run a card server on this box.
The other thing - My opinion again!
DONT use Mgcamd 1.35 with the box for several reasons.
1) Mgcamd ONLY supports cccam up to 2.11 NOT any of the modern versions.
2) Oscam supports any N lines as a client. So it becomes an Newcamd client very easily. Newcamd is usually used for single cards or caids.
3) Oscam supports any Cccam server C lines and even supports latest Cccam 2.3 etc.
So
N: server port user password key
becomes
[oscam.server]
[reader]
label = newcamdreader
protocol = newcamd
device = server,port
key = 0102030405060708091011121314

disableserverfilter = 1

#Or as a second reader for Cccam. Cccam is useful for multicard or multicaids.
#C: server port user password key

Lastly the best configuration of this box is using a USB stick (for max memory) to boot a DGS type image such as SifTeam-0.9.2-r13791 or PGI 1.4. The E2 images I find unstable and unsatisfactory.
