Up until a few months ago, we had been some Sky channels, particularly Sky Sports, by paying for a full subscription in the UK and using our set top box and card in Jordan. However, we recently got a replacement sky card (we thought the problem was with the card but it turned out to be with the box - which we then had fixed). Since the box is now working, we have tried to re-pair the new card to our old box by calling sky and giving them the details they ask for. Sky have said that the pairing will take from 5 minutes to 4 hours. We are 1 hour in but so far we are having the following issues:
1. On the premium channels (Sky sports), we get the message "wrong card for this set top box".
2. On Sky News, we get the message "no satellite signal is being received", although when I go to the set up menu and try frequency 12207 on manual tuning, Sky News does show up. I add it to my channel line up, but then when I try to go to the Sky news channel, I get the message that no signal is being received. We were receiving Sky News with our cancelled old sky card until today
3. On Living TV (and other free-to-view channels) I also get the message "no satellite signal is being received" even though when I go to the set up menu and try frequency 11739 on manual tuning, Living, Living +, Challenge, Bravo etc. show up. We used to receive Living TV before our sky box broke down.
I'm worried that I won't get the re-pairing pulse from Sky if there is a problem with receiving 12207 and 11740 default transponders. Any help would be appreciated.
