Latest bin for Fortec STAR Lifetime Ultra receivers has been released by Chancysand. There are two bins, one's for BellExpressVu and the other one is for Dishnetwork. Now, it's upto you which one to download. Yes, the bins are safe and works well. They're available at www.dssworld.co.nr!

Message from Chancysand - Must Read!

It has been my distinct pleasure to have been able help keep our Fortecs alive for the past Year. As it seems that the Pansat 2500A files will soon come to an end I will no longer be able to support the Fortec Lifetime Ultra in the future. As long as there is still a release for the Pansat 2500A unit I will continue to do my best and make a safe file for use. At this time I would like to urge all to upgrade to another reciever while prices are still competitive. We have had a long run and I feel it is best to just move on. Newer boxes are what you should be looking for as they have so many new features that you have not been able to enjoy with your older units. I urge you not to buy another clone because of price because you will be constantly strugleing with the same issues.

Hmmm...

If you know how to JTAG then you can try to load both bins and see what happens. I think if u load both bins, you'll be fine. But, before doing all this, ask one of these people:

LK, Nalin Nyda, Mc Sunny or PRFRMNJ

Guys,

If you have Dishnetwork and want to know the channel updates, channels added/removed, transponder news and updates, etc. Go to http://ekb.dbstalk.com/dishlist.htm, this website will show the current Dishnetwork status. Enjoy!

Friends,

It seems like Bin 290T is giving some bug problems. The autoroll is the only feature that's working good. Some bugs problems that other people are having are:

1.Indian channels aren't working (most of them)
2.Channel changing speed is still the same (slow)
3.A little channel freezing (some channels)
4.Some other channels aren't working properly

So, if you wanna enjoy all the indian channels, etc, please go to back to bin 289T.

AV: "I think if u load both bins, you'll be fine. "
You will be fine only to the extent that the BIN you load last will be the active one; it will overwrite the previous load.
In short, under BIN 290, you can't have one Pansat 2500A or clone or Fortec Ultra handle both DN and BEV, even with a motorised dish.
I loaded BIN 290T at 915.pm Eastern today and immediately lost SET, SETMX, ZCINE, ZEETV. I will rescan tomorrow and see if they come back.

Hi guys,
Currently I'm running 289t on Pantec v1. It has its problems-missing some channels on sat 148, no autoroll. Is 290t any better? I only need DN, no BEV. Thanks in advance.

BIN 290t gave poor performance. It did not give all the international channels on 61.5W. It seems the same applies to 148W.
The 289t is working better now than initially and if you are looking for SET, SETMX, ZCINE, ZEETV, then stick to 289t.

On 289T, the autoroll is tempramental. At times even with autoroll off, you get the new keys, and at other times, no keys even if autoroll is off.

Tamara - What's the question? About Chancy's comments? I'd be looking to upgrade (okay not me, I've got to many of them! LOL), but I would follow Chancy's recommendation.
