[QUOTE="RobAtBentley, post: 1111894, member: 143057"] Replaced the LNB (replaced the octo LNB by my old 4-way spare LNB). Lo and behold, I can now obtain EPGC updates with a good old exit code 0. No idea what's wrong with the new octo LNB. Only about 3 months old but guess there's a higher density of electronics so more prone to failure. The details of this octo LNB are provided below just in case anyone else has a similar setup. Similarly, my MediaPortal (Lost BBC One HD channel) has also been resolved. ...and found a few extra channels that I thought I'd lost permanently. My advice is to not go above 4-way LNB as problem may have come from density of electronics making it very sensitive to damage and possibly weather conditions. External connectors (at the LNB end) were all clean and appeared undamaged. Used a noddy signal strength (simple meter) tool and quiet a jump (approx +50%) in signal strength from the octo to the 4-way LNB Manuf: Zinwell Product: Sky J8LS Serial: SKY8LSA1404C003409 Cost: Approx £23 (eBay) [/QUOTE]
