    Yes send it back to whom ever you purchased it from for either a refund or an exchange

    Check all leads are plugged in correctly then turn the plug off and back on, and if everything is plugged in and it does not work then send it back, faulty box or needs flashing with null cable but with it being brand new then a refund or replacement should be offered

    How was your sky and the F5 connected to the dish? Or do you mean something else?
