OPENSKY™ Version History

Every new version of OPENSKY™ includes both new features and bug fixes. To get the best out of your subscription, we recommend you always use the most up-to-date version.

If you have the Manhattan BSM 2 and you are only using it for SatSurf Broadband Internet, you do not need to use this client. The SatSurf login is built-in to the BSM 2.
