Trying to install a refurbished Foxsat-HDR/500-G to a quad LNB but get no signal detected most of the time but do occasionally.
I have an old Sky box on one of the connections and that works fine, and it also works fine when I attach it to the two connections where I want to install the Foxsat HDR so I know there is a reasonably strong good quality signal.
Problem is that the signal detection is intermittent with the Foxsat. When I first connected everything up it wouldn't detect the signal. I played around with the settings looking to see if there was anything obvious I could do. When I went on to the diagnostic screen it showed a 100% signal with 80% quality. At this point I did a manual tune and it found a load of channels. These didn't correspond to the Freesat channels so I tried to do a Freesat tune, but couldn't get past the Post code check. I tried my postcode and my old postcode with and without a space but no joy.
I then did a factory reset in order to start the Wizard again. Unfortunately it also lost the signal and I was back to square one.
Any suggestions?
I think the box is faulty and have emailed Humax to schedule a return but have yet to receive a reply.
