Hi

Check your cables ld20 is signal issue, as you say sig is ok with dreambox you may have to open up box and try to connect the cable to the internal tuner to see if it helps but more likely tuner is fecked. Theres a coil I think that gets burnt out.

Maybe you have split your sig and its low so you can try direct connection but its defo a signal issue.

Hi

If netid is correct for your area you just need to scroll down to freq in EM and change to correct freq for your area and also check the symb rate and change. Save the changes and then check again.

Im assuming its a modded box and talkback is cut but if its a subbed box then dont mess with it just ring vm up and let them sort it.

Hi

I think to change things scroll to th freq should be a green arrow press ok should take you inside freq box allowing you to make changes the once done ok or services to store changes same with symb rate.then reboot and check changes have been stored.

Connecting a subbed box in place of dbox shouldnt cause this with the modded box.
