Does the swm device have to have a connection on both terminals on the end?

I have an error 775 error code stating that my internet can't connect with a satellite for service. Told to unplug swm and replug. It didn't work.  Does the swm device have to have a connection on both terminals on the end?

775 is no power to the SWM LNB on the dish arm it has nothing to do with connecting to the internet.

The "To SWM" port is connected to the red power pass through power port on the SWM splitter, the other "To IRD is left capped 99% of the time.

If you have satellite internet then you are in the wrong place as DTV doesn't provide internet service or satellite internet.
