[QUOTE="hemtglass, post: 1016067, member: 410673"] I needed the good luck, thanks Tururu. Dreambox now working (ie got picture/time etc back. I bought the connectors but only used one. I put dreambox into standby and unplugged the power> checked cables again> OK. Connected all including vbox :( Checked vbox continuaity, OK I then noticed on one vbox socket, the centre terminal (not at the front/ pushed back?) also noticed dreambox coax plug centre cut off too short compared to lnb coax plug centre . changed dreambox coax plug ( make centre longer) Pluged into vbox socket (with centre pin pulled back) BINGO hope you understand all that OK OK :) I have two other issues. (1) dreambox reconize hard drive (in order to do backup of dreambox ) before new updates of dreambox. (2)To make vbox work correctly with dreambox, so that when i select a channel on a satellite this does not make the dish move to another satellite (usals i think) I will do more reading and try to understand the manual better, and hopefully and fix those problems myself. (I find the pdf user manual much easier to read, and its got pictures layout etc all in color / compared with black n white manual supplied with the dreambox missing things that's featured in PDF download). good brain exercise, help keep dementia at bay LOL the main thing I am happy (at least I can use Vbox. find sat, d/b to select channels, not perfect but will do for now Great forum/Great helpful members THANKs very much MUCHOS GRASSIS para todos :) [/QUOTE]
