    Default Problem with channels and with scan

    Hi, I have 2 problems with my T5 receiver. If someone can guide me it will be really appreciated.
    Problem 1:
    I have a Bell dish that I just connect a dreamlink T5. I connected T5 to a server. I scanned channels and I would say 80% of the channels work. I verified with the server and it should work. What can it be?

    Problem 2
    I move the T5 to a different location with the same setup. I try to scan channels and I got only red bar. Therefore, can't scan a single channel. I connected a Bell 9241and signal was really good and can see channels. Do you have an idea of what it could be?

    Thank you for your reply, I will start first by concentrate with the location that work at 80%. I'm new with this and try to assimilate as quick as possible by digging in the forums. I'm under the impression that using an OEM Bell dish with a dreamlink T5 can work (it is already oriented adequatly and it works perfectly with the Echostar 9241). If so, is the issues I have should be related to the programming of the T5 or I need to perform modification on the infrastructure (ex replace LNB...)? Thanks for your support, it will help to allign my research...

    Hi, Again thank you for the support. I tried to scan with different LNB and diseqc. The LNB I have more success is single. I scanned different channels, some channels works and some are scrambled. For the scrambled channels (that are suppose to work ex SE2 and SE3), I go on the channel, I have 97% of blue signal. I asked the server provider to reset my account and there still no change. I went to my roof, I have a Dish Pro Quad 2 LNB unit and 4 connectors. There is a single cable (in use) connected on connector #4 of the 82 deg side (there is also cable connected to 1,2,3 but not in used). This cable is split to enter into the receiver. What should be the dreamlink programming in this consideration? If it is not possible, should I use 1 cable for the 91 and 1 cable for the 82? If so, how to connect and how to program? If you have chance to provide details it will be really appreciated (maybe in PM...). I have image of the installation:

    Thats a dishpro plus quad lnb. Each cable coming from the lnb carries the 82 and 91 signals
