:noclue: I just hooked up two 360 elites to same line. One works on all channels, the second only has some working and some "No Signal"
What am I doing wrong? Settings are same for both receivers

switch location of rcvrs...
to see if u get the same result
if the non working rcvr starts working again ..then it can be a cable/connector issue ... or the port on the LNB is failing...

Mac,could you explain the "tried to hook up together" part a little more. Post your cabling setup,it may give a better understanding.
same line as in the same cable from the lnb? if so then there lies your problem

My wife is my boss :-) One of my employees had a problem OK now
What I am trying to do is hook up 2 360's one in family room, one in another. If I connect each seperatly to my line in they work. So both work. However when I try to connect the other to the output of no. one I get a good signal but not all channels. IE no 417 Speed. It reads " No Signal" All settings are same on both 360"s some ppv are on others NS >could I have the setting wrong on one of them. This FTA are new to me.
