Got a new skybox F5, set it up in my mates house and it worked fine. Now I have moved it to my house, it won't work. Same cables, same Cline, no signal. Possibly router? Any suggestions.

Haven't got one of those boxes but try DCHP turn it off/on as it may still have an ip address in there from your mates house, also try and post in the digital tv section as you will get an answer there from one of the lads quicker.

Sorry just read your post again is the box getting no signal? make sure all the cables are connected into the box correctly, does any other box you have get a signal?

Just tried the box in another house, and it seems to work there. Headache?

Sounds like your dish may not be aligned properly, have you any box even a sly box that you can connect up and see if you get a signal.
