Firstly, hi everyone.

I have a problem i used to have a sat box and that stopped working for unknown reasons. I called someone in the newspaper and he told me i can get all channel decoded for free, as there is no point in him fixing my old satellite box (it was digisat) because it was friend (or so he said). I went ahead with it he got me a "Echo Link" sattelite box, worked for about 1 month and today im getting "Scrambled channels" on all channels, well out of 160 channels only 3-4 are working and those are in different languages. The guy told me every couple of months a new set of codes will appear and he will give me them for free, i tried calling him for last 5 days and his phone is switched off, suprize suprize.

What can i do? how can i fix this? should i just buy another sattelite box? Is there a fix for this?

Thanks for any help.

Just load your receiver with the latest software available (in this section) and most of the channels should be back.
