When I had SkyQ, Sky replaced my LNB with a hybrid one so I could continue using my Humax Freesat receiver. The hybrid LNB has 2 wideband and 4 'traditional' outputs.
My Humax Freesat receiver was working fine. I recently returned SkyQ when I got Stream.
Since returning SkyQ, my Humax receiver complains of no signal on either LNB input.
Is this a coincidence or does the hybrid LNB depend upon SkyQ to get power?
Thanks!

Hi @Jaybee2
The LNB should still function normally without a Q box connected.

I have done a reset on the Humax box and everything is working again.
