| | | How ViP211 is working with Q-BOX Just for gig I tested Q-BOX and ViP211 with regular Comcast cable service, so there is no MDU and as expected the combination didn't find anything.
But, I never heard the 211 could works with Q-BOX. It does.After I connect cable from sat-input of 211 to Q-BOX, a message informed about it and asked to reboot 211. After reboot menu changed to QAM setup, System info shows the Q-BOX info, etc
See results on pictures.

From Dish or installers or some other convenient places like flea-markets/swap-meat.

Yes 211's work with Q-Boxes, I use them all the time. What were your frequencies set to? This could be the reason why your results showed nothing.

Comcast don't provide remodulated signal from Dish satellite(s) here. |

I would, but I don't feel it will help because full range scan end up with empty list.
Adding pictures of the Q-BOX PCB.
