Contact Us		How to Reset the LNB An LNB contains electronic circuits but, unlike much of today's equipment, there is no microprocessor inside and nothing that can be "reset" by turning the power off and on. But the rumour spread that ANY "no signal" fault on ANY Sky Digibox could be cured by fiddling with the LNB menu screen to turn the LNB power off then on and thus "resetting the LNB". Sky employees (and other "experts") still (2011) try to help customers by telling them to "reset the LNB" and also to "wipe static off the card" - another bullshit baffles brains suggestion, which has been spread far and wide by well-meaning people who are not experts. (Don't bother to tell them they are wrong. They probably won't understand.) So, when somebody suggests that you should "reset the LNB" or "wipe the card", just smile nicely and do it. They don't know any better and it's a complete waste of time to argue with ignorant people. However, if you really feel the need to educate them, click on the "CLICK HERE" link, below, and insert their email address. In any case you can achieve the above LNB power-off, power-on, simply by rebooting the Digibox; switch it off and on at the wall socket. No need to fiddle with menu settings. Rebooting is always the first thing to try when you have a Digibox problem.   Send this page address - CLICK HERE - to a friend !     Click here for historical information about this subject if you want to know how the rumour started.
