Special offer to help with the satellite changeover.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Have you been experiencing difficulties watching TV since changes to satellite reception happened in New Zealand on April 15th 2025? Is your KiwiSat dish not working? You may need to install satellite software updates for your KiwiSat satellite or antenna. Thankfully, Geeks on Wheels can help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our expert technicians can assist with updating your decoder’s channel list. If you’re using a KiwiSat dish and need help with the software update, we can assist with that, too. All KiwiSat satellite dishes<\/a> simply require a satellite software update to work with the Korea Sat 6 satellite, although this process does require some technical know-how and equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, our mobile technicians in 13 locations<\/a> across the country have the skills and equipment to assist. Geeks on Wheels will get your Apollo KiwiSat or KiwiSat Plus dish updated and connected to the correct satellite, provided that the switch on April 15th is the cause of the issues. We’ll have you back watching your favourite shows in no time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you do need help with installing the satellite software updates and getting your TV back in action, we have two convenient options. Firstly is our traditional on-site service<\/strong>, with a special price just for the satellite switch over and dish update. The second option is remote support via the Geek Helpline<\/a>. This method means you will have to do some of the steps yourself. But you will have the support of our expert helpline technicians to guide you over the phone and remotely access your computer to complete the majority of the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
