FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Standard installations typically start from R599 to R1,000 for a single-view setup. Premium or Explora installations generally range from R1,500 to R2,500+, depending on complexity and location.

A standard installation usually includes:

  • 60cm–90cm satellite dish

  • Wall bracket

  • LNB (Smart or Twin)

  • Up to 10–15 meters of cabling

  • Professional labor

  • Basic signal alignment

Smart LNB installations (required for Explora decoders) typically cost between R750 and R1,599, depending on the installer and location.

Extra View installations (linking multiple decoders) usually range from R800 to R2,000+, depending on wiring and setup requirements.

Dish relocation or reinstallation at a new property generally costs between R650 and R1,200.

This error is commonly caused by dish misalignment or loose cables. Check all connections, reboot the decoder, and ensure there are no obstructions blocking the dish.

This is usually due to signal problems, incorrect LNB settings (Universal vs. Unicable), or faulty cabling. Restart the decoder and check signal strength in the settings menu.

Signal strength should be above 75%. If it’s weak, you may need professional dish realignment or a signal booster, which typically costs R299–R599.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure optimal signal quality and prevent damage. DIY installation may be cheaper but carries a higher risk of poor alignment.

 

A standard DStv installation usually takes about 1 to 2 hours. However, the exact time can vary depending on several factors:

  • Type of setup – Single-view installs are faster; multi-room or ExtraView setups take longer.

  • Property layout – Long cable runs, high-roof access, or multiple TVs can increase install time.

  • Signal alignment – Some dishes need fine tuning to get optimal signal strength.

  • Equipment needs – Replacing old cables, connectors, or LNBs can add time.

In most cases, our certified technicians complete installations efficiently while ensuring the strongest possible signal. For complex setups involving multiple rooms or extra TVs, expect the process to take closer to 2–3 hours.
