    Hi again, informed all my local fellow box holders of what to do, one has rung me up to say, they now have nothing, talked to them over the phone, and tried to talk them through it, but nothing on the s/w update just said 'searching' for about 8 mins and bar never moved, mine states 'already updated' after it took about less than five mins to update it, any suggestions anyone, more annoying my pal said box was working all ok till they tried to update it! any suggestions?

    tell them to try it later on tonight and you might get a better connection,
    on the remote press, menu, system information,
    the latest firmware is 29/11/2011 once its updated do a factory default.

    also try it without connection to router and modem, tell them to connect direct to wall, then do factory reset and scan, then connect modem let it boot then router and let that boot. hope that works.

    sorry to say i got rid of that pile of poo a good few months back and haven't looked back, i know how frustrating it was trying to watch something and it scrambles, i even plugged my freeview areiel in for a few months before i upgraded. was a good box before that full month black out, sounds like nothing has changed

    funny thing is not many reports of problems with kv,usually loads of reports.forgot to ask if you tried powering off box modem and router for 30 secs then on,someone else tried that and it fixed the problem.

    what i meant if it was an all over problem forums get hammered in posts,s/w updates may mean new servers added or bugs fixed,newbies may not be aware or not reading the posts to see whats happening and shout help.
