I have checked that the LNB settings are on H/V voltage and even put this to 12v but still no voltage is being outputted. Is this a problem that can be fixed or have I been sold a dead box. Also how can I check that it is a genuine dreambox.
Thanks in advance for any help. |
I have done further test and come to the conclusion that it is the tuner (alps) that is at fault. The box is networked via router, and can download files without any problems. Changed image to Gemini 4.4.downloaded emu's and channel information.The software side of the box is working fine. There is no signal getting through. The dish is ok as i plug the lnb coax into my old echostar ad3600 and there is a strong signal.
My dream box shows a S/N of around 40 -60% but there is no AGC, I have taken the f plug out of the box , there was no change to S/n and AGC levels.
