Bronze Member Username: Free_tverPost Number: 14 Registered: Jan-08 | ijust connected another pansat again to the computer and redownloaded the same bin... its the com port on the pansat that seems to be the problem unless the computer would be good for one and not the other. |

During the first two interactions and later when trying the third one, there is a possibility of having bent a Pin. If the cable communicates again well with the other two, than the bent pin might be on the receiver. Check it carefully by turning the receiver towards you and with a good flashlight. |

Bronze Member Username: Free_tverPost Number: 16 Registered: Jan-08 | by now i even have the cover off of this stb. all the pins appear to go into the cable as required from the outside... the inside connection of the port seems to be fine also. i really dont know what went wrong with this one??? |

Bronze Member Username: Free_tverPost Number: 17 Registered: Jan-08 | without the serial port, is there any other way to load the bin onto the box? |
|
Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 7036 Registered: Jun-06 | I have no further suggestions. |
