[QUOTE="cgrozev, post: 635460, member: 331562"] Thank you - it is definitely not the switch as I just replaced it yesterday with a brand new one. It is also not the LNB's because they do work on and off in exactly the same way - the only pattern being that i have to restart the DM in order to get the other three (1-3) to work. And even after restarting it is not consistent - sometimes they start immediately, sometimes i need to go to another satellite and return in order to get any signal. Then if i go to another satellite again - and return, the chances are the signal will be gone. BTW, even when not working it still shows some level of a signal - about halfway up. That is the most confusing part. If it wasn't for the on-off behaviour, I would also be suspecting cable deterioration - but i cant imagine this to be the case now - unless you think cable deterioration may affect the switch's ability to switch among LNB's - due to reduced voltage, for example? I am going up to the roof now to connect another LNB to the working input - will let you know what happens - but my guess is 99% it will work perfectly with this other LNB on the 4th (working) input. Thanks for trying to help - any other ideas welcome. BTW, could it be that the dreambox itself has failed - and that it does not send diseq voltages properly anymore? [/QUOTE]
