Default Most of the channels do not work, any ideas why?

Hi, i have a problem with my pace 4010 i think it is....wonder if anyone can help. I am using a funcard 4 with AU

I only get a few of the channels, most of them do not work and i get the following message after a few seconds:


"sorry this channel isnt available right now

Please wait or try agen later"

This happens on all the movies, and sky sports channels, as well as many others like itv 2/3, living. the box, film four etc

Could this be due to the funcard or maybe a weak signal?

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Use toxic to create the extp and use the flash from the tool bar

Have you got any of the encrypted channels ? or just the free ones, as that error box is normally wrong bk.
