Good luck, haven't found one yet. Both Bell & Rogers seem to
love disabling all the "extra" ports (firewire, usb (except for mass
storage support), etc). Did find that every Bell receiver I've
tested also supports the 'Dish' IR codes, which include discrete
power-on commands, and work far better then Bell's own IR codes,
just really need to make sure the emitter is positioned correctly.<br>
<br>
If you find something, please let me know, though considering going
FTA.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

Andrew.
