IBX100/101
IBX202 link to offer
Order took 7 days to arrive, SMS progress updates, delivery by Amtrak.
Well made, cables/batteries supplied, no manual, single instruction sheet.
Supanet ISP, home, email and search (Ask Jeeves). Hack code fk39x39662 .
Functionally similar to IBX101, same CPU & modem speed, 40-bit SSL.
Same faults(eg img hyperlink; onMouseout call to script - causes Internal Error)
Picture shake during page load, RGB colour a bit washed-out.
Large K/B (KB200), poorly marked function keys, no mouse, no on-screen arrow.
Works ok with small k/b, mouse appears and works ok.
IBX202 has narrow i/r receiving angle.
So both types of k/b must be directly in front of unit, and point at it.
Large K/B works with IBX101 at any angle, but no mouse of course.
So IBX202/KB200 combo ok on a table, no good for lounge furniture/floor use.
EXCEPT IF;
Remove casing top (4 screws), remove front escutcheon (4 screws).
Remove IBX202 sensor lens (to the right of the LEDs), and leave it out.
Bore out plastic escutcheon to about 1 inch diameter, centred where lens was.
Cover this larger hole with clear plastic. (Onto plastic posts, melt/glue)
Re-assemble. Your combo is now nearly as super-sensitive as IBX100/101.
It does work, takes less than 1 hour, but on your own head be it.
Scart in, scart out plus printer sockets. 2 front LEDs - one is bi-colour.
Single circuit board, soldered ram, socket rom, good scart control over tv.
REM, £9 including delivery, don't look gift horse in mouth!
(PS Difference to other IBXs, unit does not lock up or hang phone line on Fast24 disconnects)
Since 3/2004, older Bush boxes have experienced disconnect problems with Fast24 & other ISPs
Update 10/2004;
Hanging disconnects have continued for months on older IBXxxx's. Fix;
In ISP setup, replace one character in modem dial script from a one to a two as follows;
*\nATZ\n* *OK\nAT&C1&D1&K3W2\n* *........etc
to;
*\nATZ\n* *OK\nAT&C1&D2&K3W2\n* *........etc
FAST24; from July 06 - continuous problems, Oct 06 - defunct
Nov 06, my ISP now Fast4, unrestricted, £8/month, DNSs 213.130.128.32/3, ok on Bush boxes.
Dec 07, still with fast4 & ok with their service. Some problematic connect failures and some line-drops. Very slow browsing sometimes, 15 minute inactive time-outs kick in ok.
If file-editing, some (re-)connect attempts give 'Number not Recognised' error (so History/Cookies/Mid-Form-Edits immediately lost). 2-hour connected time-out, their Service Status' page has gone & price now £9
Most connect attempts take a while and need a fair amount of free memory on BushBoxes, seems like a download takes place.
Dec 07, Now use 3iX hosting, initial impressions of their basic Excite package - fantastic
Great prices, cPanel, Bush compat, webmail, storage, bandwidth, sub-domains etc
Note, fair number of outages of around an hour.
