  • Faulty LNB
  • Damaged satellite cable
  • Loose cable connection
  • Damaged connector
  • Weather-related problems
  • Decoder connection issues
  • Problems with the satellite installation
We can inspect the relevant parts of the installation to determine what may be causing the signal problem.

DStv Signal Problems

A DStv system can experience different types of signal problems.You may notice that:
  • The picture keeps freezing
  • The picture becomes pixelated
  • Channels disappear
  • Signal comes and goes
  • Some channels work while others do not
  • The decoder displays a signal error
  • Television reception becomes unreliable
These symptoms can sometimes indicate an issue with the satellite signal or installation.
We can check the dish, LNB, cabling and connections as appropriate.

DStv Picture Freezing & Pixelation

Picture freezing and pixelation can make television difficult to watch.
If the DStv picture breaks up regularly, the satellite installation may need to be checked.
Possible causes include:

Dish Alignment

A dish that is not correctly aligned may not receive the required signal strength.

LNB Problems

A damaged, loose or incorrectly installed LNB can affect reception.

Cable Problems

Damaged or poorly connected satellite cable can cause signal issues.

Connections

Loose connectors can affect the connection between the LNB, satellite cable and decoder.We can inspect the installation and determine which area may require attention.

If your television displays no signal, the picture freezes or your DStv reception has become unreliable, a technician can inspect the satellite installation when available.
We can investigate common issues involving the dish, LNB, cable, connectors and decoder connections.

Satellite Dish Problems

Your satellite dish is exposed to outdoor conditions, which means it can be affected by weather and physical movement.
Common dish-related problems include:
  • Dish movement
  • Loose mounting
  • Damaged brackets
  • Poor alignment
  • Corrosion
  • Physical damage
  • Obstructions affecting reception
If the dish has moved, it may need to be realigned.If the mounting system is damaged, additional repair work may be required.

LNB Problems

The LNB is positioned on the satellite dish and plays an important role in receiving the satellite signal.
A DStv signal problem may sometimes be related to the LNB.
We can inspect the LNB and determine whether it appears loose, damaged or incorrectly positioned.
Our LNB services include:
  • LNB inspection
  • LNB re-installation
  • LNB replacement
  • LNB connection checks
  • Dish alignment
  • Signal testing


DStv Cable Problems

Satellite cable is another important part of your DStv installation.
A cable can become damaged through weather exposure, accidental damage, poor routing or age.
Common cable-related problems include:
  • Damaged outer cable
  • Loose connectors
  • Poor connections
  • Water exposure
  • Broken cable sections
  • Poorly secured cable
We can inspect the cabling and determine whether repair or replacement is appropriate.

DStv Decoder Problems

Not every DStv problem is caused by the satellite dish.
If the decoder is not displaying the expected picture or is not communicating correctly with the television, the connections may need to be checked.
We can assist with physical decoder installation and connection checks.
This can include checking:
  • Satellite cable connection
  • Television connection
  • Power connection
  • Decoder connections
  • Signal reception
Where a decoder itself appears to have an internal fault, further assessment may be necessary.

DStv Decoder Installation During a Repair

Sometimes a repair is not simply a signal adjustment.
For example, you may have purchased a replacement decoder and need it connected to the existing satellite installation.
We can assist with the physical installation and connection of the replacement decoder.
The existing dish, LNB and cabling can also be checked as part of the installation.

DStv Repair After Bad Weather

Strong weather can sometimes contribute to satellite installation problems.
High winds may move a dish or place stress on mounting hardware.
Heavy rain can also expose existing weaknesses in outdoor cable connections.
If your DStv was working normally and stopped receiving a signal after severe weather, the satellite installation may need to be inspected.

DStv Signal Troubleshooting

Our troubleshooting process depends on the symptoms you describe.We may consider:
  1. What message is displayed on the television?
  2. Are all channels affected?
  3. Did the problem happen suddenly?
  4. Was there recent bad weather?
  5. Has the satellite dish been moved?
  6. Has any building or electrical work recently been completed?
  7. Has the decoder recently been replaced?
  8. Are the satellite cables visibly damaged?
This information can help identify where the problem may be located.
