Hi all
my f5s was working fine but all of a sudden it's stopped working and displaying 'no signal' on all the channels including fta. Signal strength only shows 5% on receiver. But my other f5s works fine in same setup. Have tried factory reset,new firmware etc but still can't get it to work. Any suggestions?
thanks in advance
 
seen this before when someone change the lnb setup
just check these have not been changed
 
Lnb haven't bern changed. Tried it in four different locations but same issue so have ruled out lnb issue :-(
 
the box has settings in there and if these have been changed then it will not work on any dish
i ment the lnb settings on the box

Bit confused with the settings. Sky uk 28a is ticked along with the correct lnb type (9750-10600) but both diseqc show as disable. What port should they be working on?

thanks
 
If its fixed dish then should be disabled.

Yes its a fixed dish. I checked the antenna setup on a working skybox and copied it over to the faulty one.noticed that on the faulty skybox the transponder changes from 11720 h 29500 to 10847 v 23000 even though I have set it to correct setting. There is no save option here to make sure it stays on 11720 :-(
 
Load a new channel list.
Delete old first.
FActory reset.
Load list.

doesnt work :-(

found the following via Google but don't understand the instructions :

i had to delete the channel list, re activate the ethernet, restart the box switch the dchp on in ethernet setup and then do a full blind scan,
restart the box add ajs latest list, activate the Ethernet restart box again, switch dchp on in Ethernet setup again
and i was back in buisness

i gift lost on activating Ethernet as it already activated. Anyone make any sense out of it.

Really do appreciate the help I'm getting on here :)
