I am thinking of maybe purchasing a Dreamlink T5 HD, but first I have question or two to ask about it. Anyone that has that Receiver plus using an older Dreamlink HD Receiver Version 1 or 2 in the same home and have any conflicts with Sats 110 and 129? For Example....Dreamlink T5 HD Receiver is tuned to a Channel on Sat 129 and the other Dreamlink HD Reciever is tuned to a Channel on Sat 110 the Sat 110 Channels is either scrambled or showing bad or no signal across the screen. I have that issue using one Dreamlink HD Receiver Version 1 which shows the error and the Dreamlink HD Receiver Version 2 which does not at this time. Thanks in advance.

If you have all the same type of lnbs then its not the receivers its whats called a ground loop problem you have to ground your dish and switches to a water pipe you can try grounding just your switches to the dish and see if that helps if not you will have to ground your dish as well

If I undrstand you correctly you cannot use a $PS on two different receivers at the same time. i.e. you cannot use one receiver on 129 and a second receiver with the same $PS on 110. U need two different $PS.

You may have an IP conflict, just set one box to Static and change the last two numbers of the ip and leave the other one on DHCP.

I had the exact same issue as lionking with legacy lnbs. I resolved it by adding zinwell 4x4 switches,in my case 2 of them and 1 3x4 switch together with good quality disecqs. I have 82,91,110,119,129. I run up to 4 receivers at times with no switching problems.

Yes problem or issue corrected no using 2 zinwell 4x4 connected wherever it has 22khz I have it on to what LNB Sat is connected to and on the other side of zinwell I have each LNB Sat turned off where the menu/sat settings and 22khz is shown. Works very well now but best not to use bin 119 for Sat 129 causes some pixilation so I went back to bin 116 and using factory bin 106 with it.
