Can't seem to get my 2800 running w/N2, tried several pre-modded bins (at least one with a Build Config very near my own), modded one of my own w/flashedit, made and flashed virgin eeproms each time, changed Build Data to 00 02. Keeping getting the Acquiring Signal nag 15.

On the last attempt, I was able to get into the Installation and Dish Pointing menus. (on previous attempts, the ird would reboot each time I pressed installation). The indicator showed no signal (which would explain the nag 15), although the same dish is working fine w/other irds. In fact, I can flash back to my old firmware and receive the FTA channels, so the box is alive and well, must be a software issue. Ran a Check Switch, no help. Menu is working but running far slower than it did with the old N1 bin.

Any ideas about what to try next? Thanks for any tips!

I have read that the old ird's will not work with newer switchs like dp34 we need a dp adaptor used on the old systems very hard to find 64 clams new.

Thanks, I'm using the SW21, not the dp34.
