Strange that they should be jammed, all the Dubai channels & al Jazerra channels are fine.

:confused:I've just tried 12437 & the channels are there but signal strength 70% quality 0%, the same as 11938. I live in the Middle East so it's nothing to do with the service being over in Europe. Anyone have any ideas/news?

Analoguesat, Thanks for the reponse but it's not fringe reception. I'm in Dubai & still can't get it. Just spoken to a bar owner who has 7 of their decoders & tryig to get ready for he EPL kick off today, guess what, NO SIGNAL !!!!! ADMC are in denial that it is their problem. This reminds me of...

Garyg, just PM'd you thanks for the response.

I have just got the Humax receiver & card from ADMC. Having real trouble gettin a signal on transponders 11432 & 11449 (Nilsat) which they are using. I was getting everything fine at 11 am this moning now no signal, all other transponder signals are good strength & quality. Their help line tells...

The sytem used to work fine as it is set up now.I have a 4 way dysec & the dreambox is correctly set up, stopped working a while ago & weather conditions were not good for trouble shooting until recently. As I said, I've tried 2 new dysecs, no help. connected the dishes individually & they are...

I have 3 dishes, Nilsat, Hotbird & panam sat. at presesnt I can only get Nilesat, I've tried the dysec, no help, dishes indiviually work fine but will not switch between the dishes. I have a Dream box 500. Can anyone offer ideas?:confused:

Changed FEC to 5/6 & there it is. Freqs & polarisation remain the same. No idea why they changed it without informing anyone.

I've got a DM 500-s which was disconnected for a couple of weeks, when I connected it yesterday I couldn't even get FTA on nilesat. Any ideas ????

I started this thread off about a year ago. Got loads of info off you members but I'd just like to say a big thanks to lovelyperson who I met up with and he gave me a great deal of help setting up my dish. I have a 1.2mtr dish for Nilesat and a 90cm dish for Astra (just for sky news, unless...

I'm very new to the Dreambox (500S), trying to get it networked but it doesn't talk to the internet. I have checked the LAN cable & all is well, can anyone suggest a fix?

Can you tell me which receiver you are using, which channels you can get & what is the quality of the reception? Thanks, El Cid

I've been reading this thread with great interest, I have a Sky card, without subscription, not a lot of use you might say, but at least I can get Sky news & a couple of other channels (using a Digibox), which I want to keep. I have installed another dish for Nilesat, so that I can get the FTA...

I am in the same area, obviously if I can get a good reception with a 70 cm dish I would rather put that up instead of a 90 cm. I will be using a sky decoder, at least to start with. I had a quote of 40 euros for a 90 dish. I would appreciate some advice on where to get the hardware from, as I...
