 | [TV] Pixilation - DC 550D We had a new drop put in (by Cogeco tech) and installed a DC 550D terminal. When we plugged in the unit, we had pixilation on allot of the HD channels. Checking connections they looked okay and I was about to return the terminal when I decided to re-activate the unit. Once this was done, the picture was now clear. I wouldn't of think that a re-activation of the terminal would have any effect. I have been running this way for about 4 months and the pixilation has now returned. No new drops were added and I thought this was a signal level issue. Before I called tech support, I again tried the re-activation of the box and it worked again. This does not sound normal and when the box is re-activated I must once again reset all its settings, i.e fav.. list, parental control etc.
Is this normal for this box? Could it be indeed a signal level issue? If so why does a box re-activation seem to help? |

 | Anyone else experience a similar problem? |
|
 | Our DC 550D seems to be fine. No pixels. Are all the connections tight?? |
|
 | Since the re-activation (done it from logging in to the my cogeco site), the picture has been fine. |
|
 | That's good. It sounds like the reactivation solved the problem. |
