The only thing I can tell you to do is turn off receiver.Then reset your router then boot up receiver.Other than that don't change a thing.From what I see on the status is there up on DN and down on bev.I don't have one to know for sure.

Try a hard boot most channels in 200 range are working pretty good and channels in 300's are scrambled or freezing but not all channels are down.

Default Still no R-link

Thanks for the ideas, tried them both and no sucess. Modem & router are workink fine as I tried computers on them and they work fine. On the R-Link I used to have 3 lights across the bottom, starting left to right - yellow, green,yellow, now I have yellow, green and red. Have tried down powering Rlink and disconecting from router and hard booting the coolsat5000 and still nothing . Have any other ideas that I might try?
Thanks ,
Robert

Make sure the r-link is mounted tightly.Does your receiver show ip info?

What do you mean by "Does your receiver show ip info?"

Try this and let us know if it worked:


1) Do a Factory Set (Reset) 2 times just to clear any code in the processor.

2) Download and unzip the Coolsat Receiver File designed to work with the R-link.

3) Then use the Coolsat Pro Loader v2.4 to load that unzipped file onto the receiver.

4) Go ahead connect up your receiver to your TV set and setup your satellite setting.

Setup the first satellite and Auto Scan it. Then setup the next satellite and Auto Scan it.

Note: You seem to get better results and scans when you do it this way...

5) Now connect the R-Link to your computer using the R-Link cable with the blue colored ends.

6) Update the R-Link using this Coolsat R-Link (R10) Patch Loader v100.

7) Connect the R-Link to the Coolsat Receiver using the all black cross over cable that came with the R-link.

8) Hook up the Ethernet cable coming from your Router/Modem.

9) Plug the R-Link power supply into an electric outlet and power up the R-link
.
Note: The R-Links Status Light should turn Green when it connects to the server.

10) Turn on the receiver and watch TV

Thank you FTA PRO,
Your sugestion worked and I'm also getting channels that I wasn't getting before. Don't know but maybe there might be a new channel line up for this combination.
Thank you again,
Robert
