And just to complete all the obvious tests, have you tried the upstairs box downstairs?

Is this a recent problem or a long-standing one?

Your profile suggest you haven't got a dish ............ what dish and LNB do you actually have?

What Satellite (or Satellites) are you using the boxes for?

Are you using them for FTA only, or with a Subscription Card of some sort?

Are you Card-sharing from a commercial source (or from a "gift"?)?

Hi

Thank You for the reply, Yes I have a normal sky dish with a quad lnb, I have tryed the boxes and they work fine, the cable are fine and tested, I have also replaced the LNB. Still no luck, it is a c-share

Is it your own Card you are sharing between your two boxes, or one from an external source?

When you say its not picking all the channels up do you mean the second box is showing no signal on some channels, or its not decrypting the pay channels?

In that case we cannot help you any further, as we cannot be seen to be helping anyone defraud the pay tv companies from their legitimate subscription income.

We are happy to help with other problems, but please dont ask about this particular problem again.
