Different signal strengh/quality at two connection sockets

Hi,

i am new here and hope you can help me with an issue:
i have installed my sat dish yesterday. According my LG tv i have a signal strengh of 100% and signal quality of 100% at 11836 MHz H (in Germany) at connection socket 1 (office). It only can find over 1000 channels.

In the living room (connection socket 2) i only have 10-12% signal strengh and around 80% signal quality at the same transponder. I only able to find around 150 channels.

Configuration:
80cm Dur Line dish -> 4x Dur Line LNB -> 4x Cable to basement to Dur Line over voltage protection -> 4x Cable distributed to other rooms in the house.


Already checked:

- Cables from LNB to overvoltage protection are all OK and have been cross-checked (connection socket 1 has always perfect values, connection socket 2 always bad)

- Connection sockets at overvoltage protection have been cross-checked (connection socket 1 has always perfect values, connection socket 2 always bad)



Does anybody know where the the issue is?
Maybe its the old cable (25-30 years old) which goes from overvoltage protection to the living room (connection socket 2)?
To the office(connection socket 1) there is a brand new cable.

Thanks in advance!

Could you try cable 2 on a different port on your 4 port LNB ?

The cheapest solution is to change the cable at socket 2

Not sure if it is cheap. Because cable at socket 2 is in a cable pipe which is absolutely packed. I cant move the cable. Its stuck.

It actually was the socket. It was an cable tv data socket. Changed it to an sat socket. Problem solved! ;-) Thanks!
