Hi Guys..

ok.. dont quiet know where to start..

I have my dish up.. (WaveFrontier T90 with 7 lnb`s) and all is good there. I have a DM500s in the living room, and i am having real problems with setting the DM500 to realize that i am working with a fixed dish and not a disecq motor..

I have a friend who has been trying to help me but no joy over the phone... and also need some help opening a port on my router ( BT home hub 2.0 )... Once we get these 2 problems fixed i will be up and running...

If anyone can help me.. i would greatly appreicate it.. and the first man to come to my house and get my system going.. will leave with £100.00 in his pocket.. Even if he can do it in 5 minutes..

Please help.. as i am ready to cut my throat with this,, lol
 
Steve, cut your losses. Put up the motor and the port forwarding should be straight forward to sort.
 
Port forwarding is dead easy. Just find you router on this site & follow the instructions:

As for the other bit - what sort of lnb switch are you using?

Hi Glen..

not just yet buddy.. lol.. Dont like anything to beat me.. lol.. although it might beat me.. but it wont beat us.. lmao

@ Analoguesat.

I have already used this.. and its telling me my port is open.. but it is not..
 
the disecq switch is a vantage 8 way
 
Tell ya what. I'll call over on Monday afternoon and we'll get it going...
 
Hi..

thank for the info...

Update.. I now have the first 4 sats installed and 3000 service found.. just like the way Analoguesat said.. but i cant for the life of me get the last 3 installed...

I have done everything the same as what you have said in your above posts.. and when i try to add them it does not find any sats.. Now.. i know the dish is aligned correctly.. thats for sure.. Its just when i am trying to add the last 3 sats.. I always get the message "please wait until the motor turns to 7d east..

Thats the problem.. i dont have a motor..
 
The first 4 should be the easy ones to set up - basically they are vanilla 4 way disecq settings.

I had a hell of a game getting mine to work correctly as I had to get the switching setup just right - dont get disheartened as you will get it to work eventually.

I had the "wait for motor" message many many times as well. I eventually forced it to do what I wanted it to do by using disecq 1.1 rather than 1.2.

Its a bit messy and does glitch occasionally but it does workmost of the time........
 
A lot of receivers detect the signal to stop displaying the motor moving message based on the first transponder in the list. This doesn't always work if there is no signal for that frequency. Can you change or program the first transponder entry to one that you know has signal...

Thanks Glen..

Your a star..
 
Hi Glenn

Just a wee note for you to tell you that all worked out perfect today.. Everything installed 100% and now up and running..

@ members wanting satellite work done in NI.

You will not get better than Glenn Miller, I have seen many a dish put up when i lived in Wales, but i have never seen one put up so easy in my life. Basically when concrete went in.. Glenn started to do his magic.. Less than 1 hour today and he was finished..

A+ man and A+ work.. and a really nice guy..

Thanks alot for everything...

I would also like to say a massive thank you to Compufunk who also helped me massivelly.. Another true gentleman..

I am looking forward to getting up to the North-West coast of Ireland to have a few Guinness`s with him..

Thanks again guys
