I bought KBOX PRODIGY with KHUB V3. I aim to 61.5W. Signals are good. I load 219 file. KHUB is also have green light ON. I did auto scan. BUT now all channels say "Connecting...Please Wait"
First look at the lis of Channels for kbox, click here..
You will note that almost all the channels are from Echo 10/11 at 110W, Echo 7 at 119W and Anik F3 at 118.8W. There is nothing from Echo 3 at 61.5W.
Next you will have to decide which Sats you want to scan. Echo 10 and Echo 7 require your standard size 20" Dish but Anik F3 requires 33" dish. there are not cutting corners in size
Click here for sat lists. Most of the International channels are on Anik F3 at 118.8. If you do decide you need 118.8W, you will also need a special LNB circular for 118.8 It is only about $20 or less, but you have to have it. This LNB will also get 119W.
You can buy a 33" dish with the special LNB and for 110W a small arm for mounting the LNB you already have - you will use your existing LNB for this. If you want to leave the 61.5 dish untouched buy a new one for about $15.
If you have more than one LNB you will need a DisEqC switch ($5-10). This switch is capbale of four LNB inputs. All above has to be properly installed. Then only you can talk about scanning.
Last - if you do go out to buy LNB you might as well buy a dual one in case you need to install a second receiver in another room.
"Nalin the links you posted here for channels lists are from the .org sites !!!"
The list was "Posted on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 - 09:16 pm: "
You know well enough that my list was OK when it was posted and on 24th. I will suggest to you once more. Stop trying to discredit me. Many have tried and failed and have been booted out.
I have same problem. I get IP ok using dhcp and green light on my kub black. I even get weather update with 219 bin. However all channels connecting...PLEASE WAIT. Any help would be apprecited. Thanks, djace1000
Do the following precisely. On your USB have unzipped file K1-PRODIGY_v1.80.beta.kbx have unzipped file k1pro_181_20100218.kbx have unzipped file k1pro_219_20100301.kbx Switch off KBOX and remove the khub. Unplug ethernet cable from router. After one minute, plug khub back onto kbox. Plug cable back into router. Make sure pruter is on and internet connected. Plug your USB drive into the USB slot. turn on KBOX. Install K1-PRODIGY_v1.80.beta.kbx Turn off kbox after fully installed. turn on KBOX. Install k1pro_181_20100218.kbx Turn off kbox after fully installed. turn on KBOX. nstall k1pro_219_20100301.kbx Turn off kbox after fully installed. turn on KBOX. Set English etc. Go into Menu and setup your Dishes. Save . Do Scan using red button for each of the Sats. Turn off. Turn on after a minute and watch TV.
DN changed transponders around thurs. rescan the sat all should be fine, you may see the signal meter acting up ingnor it, or use TP 12297 instead of 12239
Thank You for youe replay guys. I just got my kBox few days ago. I am still coming on speed with the receiver. Can you please point me where do I get these files?
Ok guys I have followed all the steps above and still same problem. My khub is connected to my router and I have a green light on my khub. However, all channels are saying connecting please wait. I used dhcp. I even did set my router(Netgear) to dns 4.2.2.1 and static mode. I still get green light but no channels. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, djace
Kbox has been down since about the time you bought it. Just wait and read this and other forums. Nobody knows the answer and nobody can help you. It will come when it comes, it will come!
