How to make your DSTV decoder load faster at startup

Waiting for your DSTV decoder to load could be frustrating, especially if you are eager to get your dish on to watch a particular program or football match. Is there a way to make my DSTV decoder load faster? You’ll find out after reading this article.
Tired of waiting for your DSTV decoder to load? Do you want your DSTV to skip the scanning process and go straight to your TV programs? Truth be said, that is not possible. 
DSTV is a satellite television service, and as a result, the decoder must first connect to the satellite by scanning all frequencies and band available for viewing. In simple terms, without the scanning you cannot watch any DSTV channel, and you cannot make it scan faster.
So what can i do to avoid waiting each time for the Decoder to scan? Well, for those in countries like Nigeria where power is interrupted now and then, one recommendation would be to get a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) solely for your DSTV decoder in-case of a power cut.  This would save you the time of rebooting your DSTV decoder each time power goes off. 
Also, when you put on your DSTV, you could use the opportunity to do other things while your decoder is scanning. The 5 minutes of scanning time could be useful in getting some little things done.
