S11 Freeze issues

[barrymanifold]

I am hoping someone out there can help me find a solution to a problem I with a S11 box i recently bought from ebay. In fact it looks more like 2 seperate issues.

Firstly there seems to be many channels that I cannot access, ie most Movie HD channels, EPSN, Sky Sports 3, Setanta sports to name just a few. On these channels the signal strength is only about 10% where ass all other channels that I can access the signal is over 70%.

Secondly the channels that I can access seem to freeze for a second or 2 randomly.

I am new to openbox setup so any advice you guys can offer would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance :)

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I have already updated the channel list using HDS2 found on this forum. And it was just the openbox I bought off ebay. I was hoping that it was just a simple configuration issue that is causing the channels to intermittently freeze but to be honest I'm a complete newbie so could very well be anything.

A couple of my mates connect to the same server and have no problems albeit they both have bladeboxes. It could very well be a duff box as it wasn't new when i bought it but if there is anything else that can be suggested to try I'd be most grateful

Do ur free channels freeze also. If so then could be firmware problem if the dont freeze most likely server issue

Freeze issue seems to effect all channels.

just reading other posts of dishes gone out of alignment with the very bad weather,so maybe the dish needs a tweak or two.

Yeah good point could be dish if affects all channels whats the signal quality like?

Signal quality about 74% but I've had this issue for probably best part of a week now.

Dump ur cline and try a firmware update, use the annymous clone safe see of that solves it, if not maybe tuner problem

Sorry for being a complete spanner mate but I have no idea what the above post means. I should also have advised that I'm in need of educating as well :top:
