    Yes

    Yes.

    It could be one of the receiver is faulty, causing the LNB to become faulty. It may be that the LNB is faulty. It may just be a co-incidence such as low signal, dodgy connections etc.

    Personally I would try another LNB as they are so cheap, unless you happen to have spare boxes to test with.
