  • you probably get better connection out of it now, i've got one and its fucking terrible.

  • To be honist, I never use the modem/router that an ISP provides you, 99% of the time they have been packed full with there own firmware, witch disables half of the router functions, Makes the internet disconnected ever few days. (In my experience), I have been using a Netgear router now for the past 3 years with 3 diffrent providers and it has never let me down. :) Mind you for the past few months i have been trying the BT Home Hub 3 and its been great :), Not once has it dropped out or reset :)

  • ppl should take action against them, dont they violate consumer rights? ive been using a crappy internet connection for the past 9 months, when i try to disconnect they say, i have to pay 77 pounds cuz im violating the contract, i had to point out that contract also says that we are supposed to get internet and they are not giving it to us, if im violating the contract, orange is like raping the contract. i hope orange would get in to providing blow jobs to goats, it better suits them.

  • oh R.I.P LIVEBOX 2003 Year !!!

    NEW LIVEBOX 2 2011 Year !!! Good !

  • i need new internet orange are w*nk it's lost wireless for some reason!

  • I'm on to my third of these pieces of shit now. They cut out constantly and everytime I ring up they just say "Oh it must be faulty, we'll send a new one."

    How the FUCK can every single Livebox be faulty? The customer service is dire.

  • the livebox its garbage every time i wanna play a game of fifa with my mates it kicks me out of the game and disconnects me all the timei wish i could get a new connection :(

  • I hate the look of my livebox and the lights that glow piss me off - but, i must admit that my line isnt bad. My speeds average about 3mb...

  • i have a orange live box at home and its tv setop box.

  • Good job, i have one of these, i have to put a stupidly long code in which you cant change, then you have to hold down the stupid wifi button to actually get into the network. So shit

  • hahaha legend. i agree, orange broadband is fucking shit, and their call center is shit, the staff are shit the service is shit. to be honest just complete shit!!!

  • Thanks for cheering me up! I will never ever be using Orange again! I've had loads of problems - well done!

  • Spot on orange broadband is crap! the unlimited plans are not to be used between 6pm & 12 midnite! the speed is slower then a snail, service is unreliable.

  • i cant wait to smash my sagem liveboxbitch , but untill then i have to figure out witch router would be the best alternative that also has voip

  • The orange livebox is truly shit. It laggs like hell and it cant take a computer and an xbox at the same time. all my friends have BT and stuff and they never lagg.. fuck you to hell orange.

  • Yeah lol you "should" be connected just kiss goodbye reading your emails downloading files and watching videos.

    This video took 2 refreshes to watch thanks to the majesty of the orange liveboxes super fast speed.

  • if you want to connect it to live wirelessly

    1. plug wireless thing in xbox

    2. enter all codes and that

    3.go to ur live box and press the wifi button on the back

    4. and now u should be connected XD

    (well this is how i did it)

  • your lucky it was that simple for you, but for me, i gotta disable all this shit about mac address or some crap, 1 question, you know the 2 ports at the back, can only one of them be plugged in at a time to use said device?

  • Well i only have the cable which came with it plugged in the back.

    coz i use wireless adaptar.

  • Orange livebox truly provides the worst internet connection Ive ever had even my ancient 56k ran better then this I cant download anything becuase it gets corrupted i cant watch videos online becuase the connection gets interupted and the video has to be loaded again and I cant play online games and yet unfortunatly Im stuck with it becuase my bro has to have it for his ps3.

    I want to do that!

  • i sooo want to do that to mine its so increadibly crap.l use the livebox to connect to my xbox and i cant connect to any of my friends and cant find any games after the first attempt.

    DESTROY ALL ORANGE LIVEBOXS!

  • the livebox is shit i can onect to xboxlive but it sloly got worse and now i cant find any games on mw2 or any other game and i cant join my friends games.

  • the annoying thing is you cant the the call package without the livebox, so i cant change it :( stuck with it

  • GUYS I GOT MINE WORKING!!!!!!

  • Livebox is so crap! cant connect my fucking xbox, piece of shit hardware router

  • orange r rubbish i got it yesterday the box and its useless cant connect my ps3 wiv it

    ps i will smash up my live box and post a vid

  • Id say beunlimited ive been with many ISP's and Beunlimited have been the best!.

  • Dude, they used to be usage allowanced remember? You only had a certain amount of Gigs then you had to pay. Fuckit

  • orange is shit bt are geat aN TALK TALK VIRGIN TO ORANGE GO DIE

  • I have that same model,

    its terribley slow

  • ORANGE, the fucking worst ever.

  • i have live box its a bugger to connect to but its good

  • I'm stuck with these assholes for 18months untill my contract expires. i wish there was something i could do about it

  • legend, i agree

  • If you dummies had any sense, you'd not BE on Orange, besides. Noone to blame but your gullible selves.

  • Orange are ghastly - I'd do the same thing you did; don't listen to the gorks on here - you DID DO the right thing, letting your anger out on dumb hardware, rather than on a person. Well done!! stress relief!!. Orange are cack, corporate morons.

  • Nice lol, exactly what orange deserve.

  • eeeeaaassssssyyyy

    orange r ok

    i hav sky but orange is still good

  • correct nightmareofkaitos...the box is indeed on loan and never becomes the customers property. Have you tried cancelling your subscription pedromanyana? They will ask for it back and place a charge on your account if you can't send it.

  • ok i'll clarify again.... the box is YOURS after 12 months - you are paying for the box as part of your monthly subscription...i canceld my contract with them after 18 months and i WAS NOT charged for the box.

  • @Dazlen1 

  • my livebox is fine but when it falls over it has to reset !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i have the orange 8mb package, was told i could get 5mb in my area, did a speedtest and it says my connection runs at 7.5mb. Had no problems for about a year, now it keeps D/C. :(

  • orange sucks we had there 8 mb package and they said that we could get 6 mb when we asked i said ok then... it was ok at the start but when the first few months are over there crap..... oh and we are geting 2 mb speeds now grrr.... oh 1 more thing every all other isp's say we can get the full 24mb with them ... (ASS HOLS!)

  • badman yh

  • And the accounts department try everything to keep you when you ask for a MAC code. I was offered a free downgrade to a cheaper package & 7 months free access! What good is that when my crapbox isn`t even receiving a ADSL2 signal? They could offer me free access for the rest of my life & I would still switch to another ISP.

  • Anyone complained to Orange technical support about a livebox problem & then phone again about the same fault 3 days later & they say that they cant access your account!

  • I have a live box, and Yeah it drives me Nuts, when it goes wrong, we dont get the bloody thing fixed for about a month, the cables are loose so if you tap the thing it resets making you wait 4 hours.... But.. when the thing is working It can reach some Good Speeds!

  • that box was on loan to you so your in trouble

  • you pay rental monthly. after 12 monts it's yours - this vid is 3 years old.....you do the maths....

  • wat a fukin meat head

    get a life son

  • i would rather of had a box of dog steaming shite set on fire sent through my door instead of the piece of shit router sitting in my house orange shud fuck broadband and give the fuck up and kill themselves with a spoon

  • grow up.....

  • How do you make a DMZ on this for a PS3?

    PSN = PULSE-88

  • i have this in the uk no problems on live 4 bars

  • Congratulations! My friend has got one and it is probably the most disgusting thing that ever existed on the earth. I honestly feel like giving you a gold medal.

  • i've never heard of Orange

    before! maybe it's because i live in America,

    but when i go to the UK someday

    i'll be sure to avoid them!

  • They do good mobile phone service but the broadband just sucks...

  • ye i do online gameing wich is ok at 3am-7am i get 4mb even tho im menta get 8mb but as soon as it hits 7am i get less than 2mb for the hole day. really feel like smashin mine up

  • im menta get 8mb ROFL - UPTO 8mb! ya dick!

  • If u check the terms its Upto 8 mb.......it depends of Ur BT exchange if you are capable of that speed.......U get 4 Mb and 2 mb thats great according to what You pay..U wanted a cheaper broadband...so 4 mb and 2 mb is good speed for a cheap broadband

  • you can use that livebox for orange fiber optic internet.

  • no you cant

  • such a poor design by such a big company

  • orange suck balls, gud on ya smashin up that shit, i got 2 comps to connect to it, and my fuckin itouch n wii dont even connect to it..

  • I think we need more videos like this and get orange band from selling broadband to customers.

  • I must be the only person in the country with good orange broadband. The livebox is absolutley wank but buy a Netgear DG834g. Whereas on the livebox I could only get a connection for four hours without a drop, the netgear hasn't dropped in 6 months. I can get 6mb aswell.

    Good decision to smash the livebox up though!

  • livebox sucks so does the indian line, strange you dont get an indian person when you cancle with them. I have I am glad that I did they lied to me over the phone that I was only getting 2meg, but I checked with oBT they said I should defiantly be getting atleast 6.7. I have tried every trick in the book.

    100000000000000 Ninja points.

  • RoX music!!!

  • ^^ nice :D

  • You shouldn't have wafted that livebox, your down a £100 now. Woppa >:-[

  • Just to set the record straight for the people who keep saying the same thing...The Live Box becomes yours after your 12 month contract, you are paying to rent the box, then at the end of the contract then box becomes yours - I have canceld my subscription with orange and i can catagorically confirm that i was not asked for nor charged a £100 fee for the box.

  • Orange Broadband Is Absolute WANK!!!!!!

    Mine disconnects itself nearly everyday and is an absolute nightmare to get back online!

    I'm sick of ringing india to get no help with it what so ever! thankyou orange you fucking useless goat blowing mother fucking shit herding basterds!!!!!

  • doesnt it make you feel better... that you made yaself look like an absolute WOPPA!!!!!

  • We got a livebox and decided not to use it, they told us to keep it..yes orange does suck

  • haha will it feel better when you get charged £100? i think not. if it didnt work, then fine but returning equipment that isnt yours is required. would you smash up a mates games console if it didnt work on your tv or whatever? i think not because its just common sense. if its not yours, and it doesnt work, return it, dont destroy it. a clear increase of IQ points and reading skills are required here

  • That's £100 please!

    ***check the T&C's***

  • lol good! i CANTportforward with that stupid thing :S

  • You do know that you will charged £100 for that

  • Orange sucks! Ive got lots of problems with my i-net and livebox.. Looks like a really good idea to kill it when i get home..

  • J'suis d'accord avec lui, Orange prend ses clients pour des cons et des pigeons...

    La livebox je l'ai eu en janvier 2005 alors qu'elle venait de sortir, et j'ai alors découvert son CD d'installation de merde et ses "richesses": (micro)coupures d'internet, plantages du modem, impossibilité d'accès au firmware, téléphone illimité hors service par moments...

    On a du la changer 3 fois (la dernière a cramé pendant la nuit alors qu'il n'y avait pas eu d'orage...)

  • COMMENT - English version

    I agree with him because the firm Orange considers their customers as fools and pigeons...

    About the Livebox, I get it by chance in January 2005 (it had just been released) and discovered his fuckin Installation CD and his "richess": internet (micro)cuttings, Livebox freezes, access blockages to the Livebox firmaware, unlimited phone service that became unusable by moments... I had to change it 3 times (the last has been toasted during the night without storm...)

  • your just dumb and dont know how to set up a modem.

  • its becus orange broadband service is so shit.

    u should know if ur an orange customer. if you donT THEN SHUT THE F UP.

    it took me 3 months from starting the contract to get oragne-internet working through that thing,

  • The internet of Orange is a piece of shit

  • COOOL..I have to do that with my livebox

  • You did the right thing, mate!

  • It might be easy to set up if you are on XP Service Pack 1. I'm, oddly enough, on service pack 3 so the install disc won't even load. The Livebox is literally 3 feet from my laptop and it is "out of range". Just gone back to using my Sagem modem which works just fine.

  • Orange broadband is crap but the mobile phone service is just fine ;)

  • Orange let me down again today, they only took 9 hours to fix the downtime problems today, it usually takes a couple of weeks!

  • it can be tricky if you dont know what your doing but i connected 2 laptops and a wireless range extender to it so i could get on ps3 online was easy

  • I have orange live box! live in Barcelona. THE WORST SERVICE I HAVE EVER KNOW. ITS BEEN 3 MONTHS OF HELL, NO SERVICES FOR DAYS ON END. WORDS CAN'T DESCRIBE IT

  • Therew not crap!

    Only prob is when i put internet on ps3 + psp coz they combined the wep but i fixed it.

  • have had no problems with orange, been with them since freeserve and setumy livebox with no trouble on old laptop only a week ago and setuo livebox on the new laptop easily days ago. it isnt rocket science put the disc in and follow the prompts. jeez to destroy a livebox like this is pathetic, i hope you have fun explaining to orange why their box is in bits, also you should expect a hefty bill in for replacement of that product

  • just wait till you have a technical issue with you're line....see how calm you can stay while on the line to HELLP-India

  • I to have been with Orange since the Freeserve days & the max speed of my line was 56K! and then along came Wanadoo & a 2mb adsl connection helped along with a Speedtouch 330 adsl modem & that worked trouble free until Orange took over & then I went from a internet connection that rarely died to a connection that has never worked properly since & that`s after the phone line has been renewed & I was told that a Livebox would cure my problems! Bullshit!

  • Orange broadband worst fuckin broadband iv ever come across, as for customer service you might as well be talking to a brick wall, how you supposed to understand these indians or where ever there from!!!! WHY HAVE CALL CENTERS OUTSIDE OF THE UK FOR FUCK SAKE!! Great video, i threw mine up a wall a couple of times before stamping on it!! Its a ridiculous looking box anyway!!

  • played smashing your box , best clip ever on youtube lol :) orange broadband suck's ass

  • the livebox is shit mine was useless

  • what is the song?

  • Kid Rock - Bow Witta

  • the livebox is good, its just not for idiots, the livebox is really adaptable and works with nearly anything so its more likely something you havent or have done thats made it not work, I have my wii DS and two computers all connected and still get 6 mbps internet speed on all of them.

  • I do not call this a router, it's of poor quality and full of bugs. WiFi coverage is a joke !

  • i agree. i hav a ps3 connected and never have problems. connected first time onine, wireless and works fine. this guy is a mug and when he can't work it out he just smahed it like a twat. what a waste mate! get a life!

  • no no, i am an it technician, i know my way around a router thank you very much...the reason i smashed it was becuase orange knocked me offline for over a month while they performed an upgrade of my line...which actually turned into a downgrade. i got fed up of calling them every day to hear the same shit excuses as to what the problem was.....so i lost my rag and smashed the box to shit!!....and then i felt much better

  • No, thankfully, i just couldnt imagine calling the Orange helpdesk and saying i have "LINUX" installed...they'd probaly say "errr, ummmm, ok let me speak to my manager"

  • Is the baseball bat compatible with Linux?

  • suppose the orange box is like a wife you get a good one or bad one

  • i dont get it why destroy live box ihave one causes no problems and me and my m8s get free xbox live ?????

  • Your one of the lucky ones - I destroyed it because i had been on hold to orange for hours on end...i got fed up and smashed the living sh!t out of it.

  • nice anvil

  • Orange livebox,Complete piece of shite!!

  • WERE DID U GET THE ANVIL LOL SWEET VIDEO

  • there's 2 (look closely) - we got them from an AutoJumble.....with great difficulty :D

  • I want to do this right now

  • i would ov had that i dont have a live box im with orange, they are now sending me a siemans router yey

  • YES. this is good. How i would love to murder my livebox, except we rent it.

  • Should have used a lumphammer!

  • i was thinking of originally using a Sledge Hammer but if i missed then the vibrations from the hammer hitting the anvil would have probably shattered by hands, arms & skull LOL

  • A chainsaw would have been good too =)

  • And while i`m ranting, I started with an 8 meg connection this morning & now it`s only 4!!!

  • My 8MB connection is only 1.2MB....

    also i too WAS renting the live Box till i smashed it to buggery with the baseball bat!

  • I got one of these shitty liveboxes today & what a piece of shit it really is! Wireless connection, bollocks & it took me ages to get it connected via the ethernet port. I now wish i`d gone for Tiscali or Be Broadband instead, but no I thought i`d be loyal, because i`ve been wih them since the days of Freeserve. I`m glad i`m only renting the livebox & didn`t have to buy it.

  • You are a tool!

  • thanks - wanker

  • I agree completly with u "jabnit" An none of them speek fucking english on the fone! Pisses me off!!

  • The customer service folk are either indian or glaswegian!

  • indian

  • nice one! i cant wait to do this to mine in 2 years once the contract is up. i fucking hate it. it constantly disconnects when im playing on xbox live, talking on msn, and working from home!! you phone them and they say its updating firmware... fuck off! what kind of ISP updates firmware every fucking day inconviniently!?!?

  • haha excellent!!

    orange are the biggest cunts in the internet industry!

  • I've been on orange/wanadoo for the last few years and have had absolutely no problems whatsoever with them....

    seems i'm one of a lucky few :)

  • teresa....beleive me, your joy wont last.

  • hi, im using orange starter pack broadband at the mo seems fine to me, i tried to switch to aol earlier in the year cos my modem broke and the guy in the orange shop said phone em and they send a new one, hell did they, all i got was "is it pluged in, does it work on main phone socket, uninstall, re intall" over and over. went to aol cudnt ever connect so came back as new orange customer and now im fine

  • LIVEBOX=LIEBOX

    I have Orange B/B, the service is fine (once I got my linksys). Death to the Livebox. But you do know that orange hire it to you for £1.98 a month, and they want it back when you leave them. I was thinking of strapping several cans of WD-40 to it and putting it into a fire. Kaaboom. Any one beats me show me.

    To state again. The live box is rubbish, so is the home hub. Any ISP giving you an unknown Hardware (ie homehub, livebox) say no.

  • oh btw you get a medal for that :P

  • fucking orange! i think everyone have had many problems (me included) with this shit so called broadband provider. I still have the fucking wannado box!! and they say they wont send an orange livebox because it's fine... well if it's fine how comes it feels like i have dial up?? anyway when the darn contract run's out ill be glad to smash the bastard.

  • Retard

  • AHAHAHAHA GET TO HELL YOU FUCKING ORANGE!!!!

    Joining falconnet next week with my wonderful DG834GT :D

  • Lol, I got cut off from them no warning because I was downloading too much on my "capped" unlimited service... They say nothing has changed since they became Orange but their service became shit overnight almost. And having somebody in India who doesn't understand your accent trying to diagnose your problem who all they can say is "yes we can help you with that" every two minutes is not what I paid £20 a month for!

  • fucking well done mate...

    I'm still screaming at them down the phone for giving me a top dload speed of 0.7kbps....

    I shit you not :P

    And i live only 0.3km away from my local exchange... DO NOT CHOOSE ORANGE..

    THEY CANNOT COPE WITH SO MANY USERS ON THEIR SHITTY LITTLE SEVERS

    Kudos to u pedro.. u did the right thing

  • Daniel you are exactly right - the problem with ISP's is when a company takes over that does-not and has not ever been an ISP therfore they dont know what the hell they are doing - Freeserve= Pure ISP (connection fine)....Wanadoo= Pure ISP (connection fine)....Orange=MOBILE PHONE NETWORK (Connection none existant!!!!!)

    ISP's Should be ISP's and nothing more.

    Orange, stick to what you know, and please KEEP WELL AWAY FROM WHAT YOU DONT!!!!

    ....and get rid of the bloody indian call centres!!

  • well then you must be happy customer number 1 out of the entire orange estate of several millions whom are 100% dis-satisfied with the level of service from orange.....why dont you write to them and express your joy about being with them?....give it a few months and you'll be eating your words i'm afraid

  • i got 18 mbit of connection and i never lost my connection.

    its just the place where you live and how long the distance is in your local loop.

    dumbass, its not the livebox

  • Dumbass, it is the Livebox! Orange got voted the worst out of all UK Broadband providers and this clip is genius!

  • you just wasted 6 months of free broadband, internet calls and an orange account....Does it feel better now?

  • errrrrrr YES (orange provide NOTHING for free...)

  • well thats im getting at the mo and thats how i manage to talk on the internet right now

  • respect

  • To view the Watchdog report, type "Watchdog ISP Report - Best Broadband Provider - The Winner" in your YouTube search engine.

  • I agree, Orange are totally useless. Their technical support lines that are charged at premium rates, are manned by staff in India who's English is so bad, you can't understand them. It's all about profit, screw customer care!

  • Another thing. Orange STILL aren't up to date with Windows Vista Home Premium. Their installation cd-rom is an old one, only usable up to Windows XP. I had to pay £69.99 for an Orange recommended company (Microtechs) to come and manually install my livebox for me, and have a £90.00 phone bill, from calling their useless foreign technical support staff. I'm tied to a contract (which they never tell you is about to expire), and will migrate from them ASAP.

  • mine is doing just fine! fast,easy...tou need to set it up right! not go and smash it!!

  • Hmmm, well the video wasnt really about the trials and tribulations of the live box setup, it was more about Orange and their entire lack and disregard of good customer service.....just to clarify, that was a 100% working Live box...i smashed it in sheer frustration and i use a much better 3'rd party router now.

  • only dickheads cant setup a livebox....its piss easy!!!!

  • You get 1000 Ninja points for that one mate. I have spent 8 hours over the period of a week to get online, eventually after a month I swiched to Virgin Media (At that time was NTL). I asked them 4 times to cancel my contract but they refuse on the fact that it is a free service they provide and are not obliged to supply it - I am now taking them to court and sue them for £5000 worth of loss time. Dean Joubert

  • LOL! Love it! I HATE ORANGE SO MUCH! I was on the Watchdog prog complaining bout em in March 07 - they messed up my line and I was offline for 4mths!!! DONT EVA GO WITH THIS COMPANY!!

  • sell*

  • u could have just sold it.....

  • You're my hero.

  • nice one orange livebox is fucking shit

  • You sir are a legend! THATS THE WAY ITS DONE!

  • FYI alot of ISP's have fair usage policies, just dont abuse it.  and just becaues orange uses the name unlimited for their package doesnt mean you get unlimited downloads....

  • You are a sad person.

  • Such a fucking hardman, I bet your problems are due to the fact you're a fucking moron!

  • haha your supposed to comment not slag off Broadband suppliers. Watchdog took answers from people who wanted to complain ofcourse every provider looks bad in that lol. Why do you own an Anvil? Fools
