Depends on where you buy and how much you pay.

Some of the dealers are selling the Turbo Board installed in the receivers, and some dealers you must buy the board separately and install yourself.

You need to think about aiming a Dish at DN 129 Sat as that is the sat with all the DN HD Channels are.

For Bev all their HD is on the Bev 82 Sat.

Price sounds like it doesn't include the Turbo Board.

Hi davidjames, Is it possible to get your "Setup' for your Dreamlink ? I'd like to get a Dreamlink also. I'd apppreciate what is working for you. I been reading a lot -but want to see if your setup jives with what I have access to.......Thanks much...

First place the factory file on the Dreamlink HD, Then do a factory reset of the box. Again the Usb Exporer window will come up. Then select the latest bin file and place on the box.

Then go in Menu to Installation scroll down to Option and select Renumbering by SID to ON and make sure Auto CH/TP Update is selected to ON.

Then while still in Installation select Dish Settings and set up your sats.

Then go to manual scan and make sure Transmission is set to Turbo 8PSK

Press exit and now to go Auto Scan and scan yor sats.

When done exit and save.

Next go to Configuration...Set your Time and your A/V Output Settings and also UI Settings.

Then to Network Settings and hit the Blue butoon on remote to set up your servers. A box will appear select password 0000.

You have 10 private server you can put in. Dont have them all activated just have a max of 3 activated at a time. Myself i have 2 activated most times. One for Bev and one for DN.

If you activate more you will get pixels showing up. Why you ask? Is because all the servers will enter the box and the box will get confused which one to take and that will give you pixelation on HD Ch.

To place your servers in take time and make sure all your ps settings are right.Here how to do...

Name or ip..after done push exit

Ports...when done push arrow down on remote directional pad

Id ...after your done press exit

Password...after done press exit

Des Key..after done press exit

Now press exit again and make sure your private server is on.

Press exit again and you will see a box pop up and it will tell you which servers are connected.Will say Newtork is Connected (4)(3) if you have 2 activated. Exit out if connected.

Next you can go to Channel List and do your Parental Control if need to.

Next is Utilities thats where you can see System Information on your box. Mp3 Player is there...Image Viewer Data transfer if you want to save Ch list or put a file on and also the PVR Menu

Which i think you all know what to do in those places.
