    Can I mount a DP34 outside??

    If you are needing to feed 2 or less receivers and you are with only 1. Then why not use a Dish Pro Plus Twin LNB? Then no DP34 switch will be needed.

    Dish 811 - P284 Update

    Try leaving the receiver off at least an hour, sometimes being off just 30 minutes just isn't enough time to start taking the download.
