    Check the LNB settings

    Why not look in the guide in the link posted above? It has everything you need. You just need to know what LNB is on your dish.

    Is your card in the slot? Is the EMU running? Are your config details still there after the reset?

    Have you tried putting the card back into your Foxtel box?

    hmmm I'm glad I made suggestions above!

    Interesting all the info is dribbling out slowly. By time we have it all the new ECM changes will be rolled out to orange SD channels too
