Scanning issue with new Dreambox 7025+

[hellorajaraja]

Hi Gurus,

I need a help in configuring new 7025+ as just replaced with previous one. This box having both DVB-C tuners while in the old one, both were DVB-S. Issue is that when I try to scan, it simply failed to find used transponders.
I live in Reading, UK and using below settings to scan:

configuration mode = enabled
used service scan type = Frequency steps
frequency scan step size = 01000
scan qam16 - no
scan qam32 = no
scan qam64 = yes
scan qam128 = no
scan qam256 = no
scan SR6900 = no
scan SR6875 = no
scan additional SR = 6952
scan additional SR = 6887

In my previous box, I had below settings:

frequency 11836
astra 19.2
symbol rate 27500

Even after setting the above symbol rate, its same issue. Couldn't use this frequency because of limitation of DVB-C.

Will appreciate any help.

Cheers.

This is a serious question
Are you trying to receive satellite channels with cable tuners???

Hi,

To be honest, I 'm not an expert.

When I bought this new box, I got the issue and during research found that on previous box, both tuners were dvb-s and on this box both are dvb-c.

Can't we get satellite channels i.e. dish channels via dvb-c ? Is there any way we can do it via any connector / converter ?

Thanks.

No mate you cannot.
You can take the tuners for satellite out of the old box and place them in the new one after removing the cable tuners. As far as i know they just plug in and out.

heres the link to the 7025 pdf to show how to do it

Thanks buddy. Will do it.

Stupid question, why we need dvb-c tuner ? I don't think if we have cable connection then we bother about dreambox ?

Cheers.

Well Dreamboxes are sold worldwide. They can be used for viewing satellite, cable and terrestrial broadcasts. So each user uses whatever tuner they need and usualy orders the box with the ones they require.
