dish network remote will only work with tv but not satellite?

[ur_name_here]

my tv remote wont work with my dish receiver. i have pressed the SAT button and the problem still exists. my brother and i share the same receiver and a few days ago, his remote did the same thing and still won't work. this morning, my mom was messing around with the receiver and today....my remote won't work. i'm pretty sure its not weak batteries, because i think my mom did something to mess it up. i have already tried to reset it, but it still won't work correctly. im not sure what the problem is...

all answers would be appreciated.
