Gold Member Username: LolPost Number: 1467 Registered: Sep-06 | copy paste Here's how to configure your DD-WRT to work with the iHub. 1 - Make sure you have a working WiFi connection available. 2 - Take your DD-WRT box and set it for "Repeater-Bridge" in the wireless - basic settings. 3 - plug your iHub into the DD-WRT port (1-4), the repeater-bridge setting disables your WAN interface. 4 - make sure your DD-WRT router is configured with same wireless SSID, Channel and WEP security key as your main unit at your site. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15350 Registered: Jun-06 | In all setups of this kind, i.e. whether you are setting up for Internet telephoney or Internet gaming or ihub with wide open ports, you have conflicting needs. On the one hand, you need absolute security and a proper firewall for the real internet traffic. On the other hand, for the internet telephone or ihub to work properly they must sit in a "DeMilitarized Zone" i.e. have DMZ enabled for the device and not enabled for the real internet browsing. Some of the more recently made Wireless modems have this setting availability through simple idiot-proof embedded software. Make sure though that you DO NOT set up the system such that the whole system is open to attack from outside. You may also need to do some setups in the browsers allowing certain sites more access to your computer than others. As newer "software ihubs" come into the picture this will become increasingly important. When in doubt, consult a Guru, because the last thing you want is an outside site gaining access to your computer through inadvertently putting your computer in DMZ. |

Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 15 Registered: Feb-08 | HI my wireless is wide open there are no security encryption, so should i just go to dmz and disable it ? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 16 Registered: Feb-08 | Nadin and sada or paul thanks for your advices , i am getting STAR ONE , doest that means everything is setted up accordingly?, besides that iam not getting any other channels , is this becuase they have moved to 118W? iam currently pointed towards 61.5 . |
|
Gold Member Username: LolPost Number: 1494 Registered: Sep-06 | oh you only have 61.5 ? nalin b i t c h b u g g e r o f f this is just for a test |
|
Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15353 Registered: Jun-06 | "make sure your router is configured with same wireless SSID, Channel and WEP security key as your main unit at your site" In other words if you also make sure about this level of security, you will be OK. Consider the following analogy: A whole army is encamped is a demilitaried zone. will they go to sleep without some protection? No, they will still have sentries, and other security in place to make sure that only authorized "intruders" are allowed in. Your SSID, WEP and other measures ensures this extra. security. |

Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 18 Registered: Feb-08 | yes i have normal size of dish not the 33inch Dish, so right now iam just getting StarOne a single indian channel i beleive its still on 61.5, i have setted up DMZ too and triggerd the ports Nalin , |
|
Gold Member Username: LolPost Number: 1496 Registered: Sep-06 | so if you take the hub ip out of the DMZ does it still work ?? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 19 Registered: Feb-08 | i took out the ihub and it stopped working, plugged it in back it started working |
|
Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 20 Registered: Feb-08 | between is Bev up with kbox? |
|
Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15356 Registered: Jun-06 | DJ: You have a right sized dish for 118W. You can buy a $20-25 special LNB e.g. CB2008A. Make sure you get a LNB designed for Linear/Circular, and specifically for 118/119. Then move the dish to line up with 119 and hopefully you will get more channels with the hub. Mostly you have to set up DMZ only for the devices you want to be in DMZ. The other alternative is to put the whole system under DMZ and then protect your computer with a firewall. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15363 Registered: Jun-06 | Sorry DJ - I misread - You do NOT have a 33" inch dish, so you cannot have 118 till you get one. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 22 Registered: Feb-08 | hi nalin is nimiq 82 W which is bev up on kbox and khub? |
|
Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15364 Registered: Jun-06 | kbox till two days ago, had only Dish channels. Bev channels are up on Nfusion. |
|

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15367 Registered: Jun-06 | To get 118.7W you need the special LNB. The LNB you have is designed for Freq 11250, and the one that is meant for 118W is to be set for 9750-10250. The LNB is available for under $20, and has two outlets for two receivers. http://transatelectronics.com/store/lnbs-1187-lnb_CA151_66_100 The above is a Canadian URL, but there are many on line stores in the USA selling similar products. |

|
Gold Member Username: RiconissanPost Number: 1426 Registered: Feb-09 | looks like you are throwing out the window. That will not work for 118. http://transatelectronics.com/store/lnbs-1187-lnb_CA151_66_100 |
|
Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 15368 Registered: Jun-06 | No DJ. That will not work. What you need is # Polarization: Circular # Input Frequency: 11.70 - 12.75 GHz # LO Frequency: 10.750 GHz or less |

Bronze Member Username: Dj_princePost Number: 34 Registered: Feb-08 | @ Papiro You need KBOX, i have prodigy and A KHUB First you would need to activate the KHub go to this website http://currentbins dot com/k-box/ download K-Hub Activation 2.0 Loader and How-to its a zip file with loader and couple of other files unzip > open FT Loader> Open Com 1>select file and then upload file it will activate the KHUB select FT_a1.25_up(p) Plug in your receiver and connect the KHUB to the KBOX together with the black serial cable provided. and then scan as usual you would need to connect the ethernet cable coming from your home router to the Khub directly and make sure green light is solid and on that means the KHUB is connected to the internet You would need to have 33inch Dish and a special LNB mentioned above also from the link download the latest firmware depending upon your kbox model put it on the usb drive and then insert it to the reciever and update it  |
