Not powering up, so I thought it's power and tried using the adaptor to power it. it came up but was not responding to control. It was taken to engineer, the panel was changed but all to no positive result.

I have warned people here to avoid that decoder and some dealer here came over me.

Thanks for your support.

Pls, which decoder of same/similar specifications and price range that is ruggedly durable would you recommend in place of CSAT 8+ pro?.

There's nothing wrong with the decoder, it's a good decoder for its price range.

There's really nothing bad about the decoder. Just make sure when not in use, disconnect it from the mains. The tuner is great and it's hypersensitive(can be used to track)

It might have probably be software issue in as much it powers on. Not all engineers understand how this decoders work. Since you've used csat and you had issues with it, I'd advise against aster because it uses same board, you can go for the tiger series.

Don't mind people telling you nothing is wrong with csat. They are talking from installer point of view. The panel is nothing to write home about.

You can try mediastar Ms2727 for low budget

Who are the dealers that came after you? I hate it when someone lie against his brother just to prove a point.

I'm not an installer! I'm stating my point of view having used csat for awhile. I've ported various STB firmware on it and the board is still intact. I wonder were you got the assertion that the board isn't good. You should understand it's a cheap decoder so surges tend to affect it more that's why I advise disconnecting it from mains when not in use.

Both have its ups and downs. Ms2727 has the acclaimed forever server but some users have claimed it doesn't save biss key and it cracks on multistream channels (though I heard they released a software to fix the later) whereas csat doesn't autoroll biss key but porting another software STB firmware can fix that.
Csat has a good tuner and hypersensitive (can be used for tracking)

I have a Csat 8 Pro+ and I have a strong decoder and I have been pluging the Strong decoder for ages without issues.
I bought Csat 8 Pro+ and within 2 months the decoder exploded like bomb on the same socket that I have been using on my Strong Decoder.

Mine was fixed and is still working on heavy step down and stabilizer.

I have advised people to run away from that decoder but some people who have not even own one will be attacking.

What are you stepping down? Is it the same amount you bought strong u bought csat? It's cheaper so you should know you take more precaution!

I bought my Strong the same price I bought my csat. If you don't have any reasonable defence tactics please don't quote me.

Show us the screenshot where you were attacked for asking people to stay away from Csat C8 pro plus. You can even quote the post for others to see it but if you don't then let it be known to you that you have been lying to this highly esteemed house.
