[dreams156]

Could someone please tell me what I may be doing wrong trying to program my atmega 128 card for dishnet.I have converted from bell to dishnet.I have a 2700 reciever and have got wrong sat echostar 119 located to download the stream but not able to lock on yet.The reciever has been SA5,Have not been able to program the card,it keeps saying in reciever card not inserted properly.Have tried to reprogram it.I am using jeepers i input all the information pfg file,ird,cam,box keys,zip code for minnestoa as that is closet to where i live in Canada.and the dish keys. but it states when i go to lock/fuse failed to enter and also fails to full monty.Should i also be entering be Aux 0 and Aux 1 keys in or not,or just Key 0 and key 1,am getting very fustrated trying to figure out what is wrong.Can anyone help me step by step with directions on what to do,have a friend trying over phone and he also can't figure out what is wrong.Any help would be greatly appreciated.I think i may of got the card programmed properly,not quite sure if it is,working in reciever but still not locked on satelite have alot of channels showing in guide but they are scrambled as you can not read what is in the guide except for the channels listed what is wrong.

At this point you might consider downloading a DN firmware from the TSOP bank.

The latest one you can find matching the model and build of your receiver. Then load your boxkeys ird number to the firmware with flashedit then save it. Then create and save a virgin EEPROM image. Write both to the receiver. That will at least get the built in signal meter going for easier setup of the dish. After you lock in the dish you can let it stream update.


The Bev model may not match the DN model firmware. If you don't see one for you model post the model number and Build id (build ID is on a sticker on the main board. Has four letters.) for suggested matches. Or a quick search may find it.

For the Atmega try programming with another computer that is not "branded" (compac, sony,hp,etc), this computers apear to have the LPT port with less voltage that "assembled" computers, also try to program directly with a "gender changer" adaptor instead of cable, post the result .. .

Hey there,
Maybe you havn't done enough reading just yet...and as you probably have figured by now...Atemegas were used for Nagra1 stream technology...as things have ALL pretty much been moved over to N2, you're not gonna get much from the use of this card.

You may still recieve SOME locals, and the odd non-packaged channel...but for the most part...everything has been converted and you're Mega is pretty much useless for now.

In any case, read up a bit, and learn of the alternative methods that are currently being tested/ used today...

Good luck!

Remember to correct the lock/fuse settings or you will get errors.
