Finally got the new DL t5 hd.
Loaded the new bin.
The sats I'm connected to on a legit subscription are 61.5 and 72

My 2 problems are cant connect to server but i think that is a fat finger from the ipk guy.
The other I cant get blue bars on 61, I have to be on nimiq 82 for the 61 to lock and it says echostar 61.5 with good signal and quality.
To get 72 to lock I have to be on echostar 110 and it locks to 72 echostar with good quality.
I can scan and get channels but the epg is hosed, I try to sort by E* and it gives a error.

any ideas how to fix this?

You sure your server supports those sats? Not many do

Ok i've acquired an old dishpro dish with the dual lnb's built together. I have a connection on both sides for cabling, I assume it's for running to stb's.
The T5 has a 2.5 amp power supply so do I need to still run a power inserter? If so will a totally separate wire coming from the inserter go into the other open port? Right now the T5 will power both, just wondering since it's a pain in the ass to run the wires from atop the house.
Or can I make a short wire run the T5 into the inserter, the the output of the inserter go to the dishpro?

Thanks

you only need the power inserter to run the dish 1000 series or a dishpro plus
Can you post all the info that it says in system info in your menu?

I have a dp 500 with a twin legacy lnb.
What is the setting for this type lnb? Single, ocs-dp, sorry for so many dumb questions but I can't seem to find the setup

Thanks

thought you were going for 82/91 Just adjust for the sats you are aiming at
