is that that only way? will have to did my solder iron out is there a good guide anywere on here?

i would first unplug it and then plug it in after about 20 seconds that will sort it if it is just a glitch, if that doesnt sort it a reflash will be needed .obviously as ted said also check all your cables .

If the above dont work mate
Remove the lid ,and check the ribbons havent come loose
They just push on and off
Its a common fault and will leave your Dream without any remote features ......
Hope this helps ................Paul

install cccam 2.1.3 and set it as your default cam ,i cant help you any more than that (as talking about cs on the open forum is against forum rules) if you want to learn about cs you will have to google it mate

you can see from this link the price of a few spiderboxes
Spiderbox
so your mate after paying ?310 did infact pay for the channels he recieves. i dont want to break any rules or get banned so all i will say is you could buy a dm800 hd for about ?140 online and then pay a guy for the channels which would be about ?110. as far as im aware there is no 3.00pm football on the uk channels so you would need either a motorised dish or a dish with 2 or more lnbs (say one lnb giving you 28 east and the other giving you 13 east) giving you a signal from 2 or more satellites with one dish.

he got a MOTORISED SATELLITE DISH DiSEqC 1.2 MOTOR 0.1 LNB spider 7000 all installed for ?310 should i buy 1 of them or dreambox 800hd? sorry 2 b a pain and he pickes up every channel how much do u think it would cost me for a dreambox 800hd with dish ive looked and just for dish andbox lookin around ?400 thats without install and the other package u no

**piopat** · 13th January, 2011, 02:44 AM

ah so he got a motorised dish included in the price of ?310 i suppose thats not bad ,personally i think the dreambox is better mate but thats me .your mate is viewing channels through whats called the gift (i cant say anything more than that other than it lasts 12 months) as i say the box plus motorized dish and channels for ?310 is quite good. if your happy with what your mate has get the same as its not a bad price .
