Ariva 202e , brandnew unit , sometimes reception , sometimes not.......

Hi, I Cannot select transmitters or cannot switch properly between my 4 LNB’s (Astra1 Astra3 Astra2 and Hotbird) without having ALWAYS reception with image (FTA or Scrambled …. and of course I use a fitted smart-card for the Scrambled signals…..) .

For example :
1) If I select a transmitter , for example , on Astra 3 , I have no image (waiting 5-10 seconds).
2) When I select another transmitter , for example , on Astra 1 , I have image.
3) When I go back to the same transmitter as in 1) , then I got image !
4) When I select again the same transmitter as in 2) , there is a big chance that there is no image !
This is happening on all 4 LNB’s

Another example :
When I do a transmitter scan on all 4 satellites at once , a lot of known transmitters (FTA and Scrambled) are missing in the reception list. When I do another scan (after deleting the first scan) , other (or same as in first scan) transmitters are missing in the reception list. So I had a lot of work to have my wanted transmitters……(manual scan on specific transponder)

Only if I repeatly switch several times between the 4 LNB’s (with a working remote control) I got reception and image on the transmitter that I want…..
To select another transmitter , I have to do the same thing again, sometimes it works (= reception with image) , sometimes it does not work (= no reception and no image).

Tested with a cable lengt of +/- 10m between receiver and 4to1switch. the Satellite signal is strong (weakest signal is 85%) and has good quality (more than 80%)

I tried 4 different brands of 4to1switchers (Johanson 9214 , FUD 2W , HQ SatSwitch 20W and EMP Centauri S4/1PCN-W1) but always with the same bad result .
I tried with my “older Low-Cost Koenig SDCR10” and Homecast 9000 receiver, even with a longer cable length (about 20m) between 4to1switch and these receivers , and I had immediate reception with image without any problems , on all 4 LNB’s.

So, the problem is not the 4to1switch and neither the remote control…..

Ariva is upgraded with latest “genuine” Ferguson Ariva 202E software V1.20B6 and several “factory resettings” have been done.

PS: What means the indication of the front LED (under the clock) : Red = standby , Green = ? , Not lightning (....of course power in on and a channel is selected.....) = ?

Hi Nano , I use quad-LNB's (yes, I use 4 receivers.....) and I switched already the cables at the LNB connection. And as I said , my "previous" Low-cost Köenig receiver dit not had any problem.....

And second issue but less important than switch/reception issue : a couple of weeks ago , I could watch Youtube (and other stuff.......) without any problem , since a couple of days I only have a message "network is not available" (wireless , or even wired, and Ariva confirms that there is a connection with my router)
