I would ring out those white coax cables to see which ones go to your inside sat connections. Then, if there is enough length, pull those to connect direct to the convenience center. If not enough length, try a coax “butt splice” to connect the correct white cables to the appropriate cables from the conv center.

BB TX, What exactly is "ring out"...is that a check for continuity with a multimeter?
And, can you explain "butt splice" please?
I am dealing with this exact same problem as the original poster, and would so appreciate the help with this.
Since the day I spent trying to figure this out, I found the antenna booster all the way in the bedroom (tail end of my 3731FL) and it was on. Turning it off, I solved the problem with campground cable connection...And am wondering if it also might have interfered with the satellite connection? What do you think?
Thank you again for your input...
