[QUOTE="alay, post: 117469, member: 191786"] Ive got this ongoing problem trying to connect my satellite broadband set-up which is driving me nuts, looking for some technical insights here in tracing the problem. Motorised dish with twin output lnb one output to humax receiver and other output dedicated to my computer where i have it connected to a usb skystar . Im trying to connect to the open sky system on 7 degrees east. Now i get 80% signal on this satellite and i can pick up the fta channels easily on the humax. I have also changed cables to check that the other output of lnb is good and it is. Now when i connect my skystar, and configure it to the correct transponders with all the relevant settings, i get an 80% signal on the signal status on both transponers using the setup4pc facility. With this signal quality, i also get an SNR(db) reading off 8 dbs and a BER of 0.0000000 Now when i launch the opensky software and try and connect, or if i move my dish then move it back again, the signal quality remains at 80%, but my opensky software says to check the satellite adapter signal as in not good signal. When i check the SNR(dbs) it has gone to 1.0 with a BER of 1.3, ive heard that these readings are the problem but i dont know why they are happening while i apparently still have a high signal quality. I have already had a replacement skystar and software but still get the same proble of this SNr(db) and ber rate being wrong ? Can anyone shed some light on this problem ? What are the significance of these SNR and ber rates and what is causing the changes in them ? Is it something to do with my equipment etc etc ? [/QUOTE]
