junxbox set up

Update''''''''''''''' Got the receivers connected to my server but the scan did pretty much gives me the same channel list as my dreamlinks. I gained a couple of channels that went from 82 to 91. Still lost most sport channels....tsn's and sportnets. New receivers sure a disappointment.

The clones are really poor.Very soft picture,slow channel changes,unstable setup,hardware issues,and the list goes on.We have been spoiled in the past by exceptional functionality of the Dreamlinks & Sonicview.This is the world we live in now.There will be little if any satellite inovation.The only real possible help would have been for the Dreamlink team to release the source code or AES keys to the software so the software could be modified to work with the new satellite requirements.
That won't happen because Formuler wants to sell their crappy streaming boxes.It's dying a slow death.The hardware options available to us are desperation attempts.It really is time to move on, at least for me.Those with very slow internet have no other option, but those that do...

Do manual scans and switch from V to H, scan both way. I have a jynxbox and get sound and picture on tsn and sportsnet. You should scan at least 3 times on each transponders

Can you scan each TP separate? Everytime I do a TP scan, it scans the entire sat.
Also, did the 888. for the DNS connection but no go, still have to use the adapter.

When using WiFi adapter, see what IP address is being used (make note of it) then if you can log into router/modem
and assign that IP address the WiFi adapter was using (static IP) to the Box/receiver, this May/May-not work, possible bad wired
Ethernet port etc.

My main thing is just to have Fox East and West working for tomorrow just in case ISP's start having fun during the game. Just swapped out the T5 for this Junkbox and at least I have those 2 channels.....lol
Thanks and I'll give that a try Monday. Already have the 2 channels I need for tomorrow.

Many people have posted this already, Scrap the T5 it is a "PAPER WEIGHT/DOOR STOP", Not coming back to "LIFE EVER"

Use the Junkbox from Here-On-In, Satellite reception is ON IT'S WAY OUT, Who knows how much longer it will Last.

[squirtNcider]

For sure.....Was riding the T5 out but pretty much done now. I only use it once in a while anyways.

So, with my T5, I had 82 and 91 with a sw21. Should I just disconnect 82 and use 91 directly? Any point in keeping 82?
My sub expires in June, so I probably won't renew unless this box can get the channels my T5 did.

That's a individual decision, all I know is 82 is on it's last legs (from all reports) channels are moving off it to 91
at this stage it is a Work In Progress with the remaining IKS Boxes that are left & IKS Itself, more-and-more going the IPTV
Route etc. Who knows how long it will Last ?

Just figured all the channels I watch, TSN's, sportsnet, etc have all moved to 91 since I could no longer get them with the T5.
My buzz box is what keeps the wife happy!
