Not familiar with Dream cast 7020-5
Can you attach the spec or a URL link?

My System: DM 600-S, AB IPBox 9000HD, Moteck SG2100, Fracarro Penta 85 dish, + some puters

Sounds like what you mean is a Dreambox 7020-S. A Dreambox is a linux based sat receiver. Dreamcast is a sega games console.

With a dreambox he wouldn't actually be getting the channels over broadband, but via e normal satellite dish. The broadband connection is used to receive keys to decrypt the broadcast.

You are in for a lot of head scratching if you are going to try to fix this having never used the technology before, but we are here to help
