I checked my box this morning and see that my Foxsat has Loader U7.52 and software 1.00.11 (25 Oct 09). If the new Loader is U7.53 will this be done 'OTA' or will I need to go down the USB route?

My sole USB stick is 'FAT' and my PC doesn't allow it to be be formatted to 'FAT32'. Would this be a problem?

Is there any point to upgrading the loader if the only change to it concerns diseqc switches?

Out of curiosity, why do so many people appear to have been upgrading the software with USB sticks when it's done OTA?

Regards

Loader apparently won't be done OTA but given your software has updated to .11, I wouldn't worry about it. Your USB stick may work as is, just a case of trying if you want to be totally up to date.

People are updating on here using USB as they have been waiting 12 months and were itching to see the improvements ASAP, me included. There is no difference in the end result.
