Guys,
I've changed bedrooms recently at home and the sky digibox that was in our room, now has constant problems when re-located.
somedays it works fine, most others the picture freezes, jumps and the says no signal found.
i go into the menu and check on signal strength and normally the 2 bars are empty and there is no signal lock. the sky+ downstairs is fine, so the dish is ok.
The only thing i have done, is where the black cable comes into the old bedroom, i bought a 10m extention lead that has a female to female connector to engage the extra lead. the cable then goes along the loft into the new bedroom. i ahve tried wiggling the cable, removing the cable from the pace unit and reconnecting it, turning the unit off for a day or so and even cleaning the sky viewing card.
anyone have any ideas if its the cable or even a crap pace box? dont want to buy a new box only to find out that the problem remains.
thanks
