heylo, i have 2 bell 3100 receivers hooked up in my house as well as an HD receiver in my basement and i was trying to move one of my 3100 receivers to a different location but it doesnt seem to be able to wrok there.
Everytime i hook it up in the new location it says "Attention please standbye for sat. signal" and goes through diferent transponders", now i went down to my basement where all the cables are going through from and fidled around with them a bit to see if i could get it to work.
from what i managed to see, there were two cables coax. cables with blue stripes around them and im assuming these are connected to the dish, one of these is connected to a videopath power inserter connected to a black coax which seems to be connected to my 3100 thats not changing positions, now there are also two other black coax.'s down there that are not connected to anything, but it seemed that if i connected one of those to the power inserte in palce of my non-moving 3100 it made the one i moved work, but the one i didnt move then stopped working,
the other blue striped coax cable was connected with a thingie to another white cable which i had no clue waht that did, i tried messing with taht, but nothing changed,
all throughout this my basement hd worked fine, even though i was unhooking random thigns which i knew worked with my tv's lol,
anyways if anyone could help my noobishness and help me move my 3100 to the new location while letting my second 3100 still work i would really appreciate it
