    Ive been running my hd combo box for a week or so no problems yet this morning all the channels are scrambled. Check internet, setup, etc and everything is fine.

    Is there a problem around at the moment?

    obviously there is a serv issue then, I am sure it will come back,

    As I said in another thread, cause you are using the net to clear chans, you now have another body in the mix, is it yer BBAND, is it the server, is it a provider problem, you can be here everyday with issues, just let em come back, more often they will

    My box has been up and running for a couple of weeks with the odd channels freezing but have never lost all my channels due to the server problem. Is it possible to select which server you get connected? Presumably there are more than 1 out there.

    I just told you, its the server,

    Like it or lump it thats the way these boxs will be, people need to realize this, they are not the plug n play boxs, your relying on other things to make em work such as a server, your internet connection, your router, your homeplug, any one of these can or will go down, thats the way it is going forward and its something folk will just have to get used to if they want to use these type of boxs, if not, pay for a sub and be done with it

    its been worked on, so when its back its back,

    a sub is paying for it off your provider, a proper box, that way if there is a problem, you can ring em, so unless ya want to pay for it, I would suggest you take on board what I said above and roll with it as far as these Sv's and others like it are concerned.

    If you router is working properly, your net is working properly, the server is working properly, your cable signal is good, the sun and moon are in Scorpio ,then all is well, If one of these is not (apart from the sun and oon in scorpio), then your goin to have a problem, because these boxs are relying on a outside intervention to work, your at the mercy of this, same as the guys on sat using a card share, their serv drops, chans drop, its part of game.

    So if yer getting 95% of yer chans at anyone time, then be thankful, but in this case there is a serv issue, its wait and see, but it will be back up

    Hi Mickah,
    just to border you a bit. I'm using sky dish and SVHD combo+. I'm able to get as many as 700 channels but 99% are scrambled. Do you know how I can fix this? Do I need to connect to the internet as I'm currently not or do I need a code to open s'thing?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Box must be connected to router for server connection to de-code channels
