780 boxes down

ok an update, first sorry for been so thick e45 but are the weather and traffic reports channels on there own or radio stations?
next, the wall box only has one outlet so virmin must of supplied splitter as neighbours have broadband and tv, i tried a scan direct from wall to stb and ethernet direct from modem to stb, it showed all the channels but same scrambled message on screen, i put ssp1 on and signal was 88 after i reconnected everything and turned off for 2 mins. and they not happy lol, because they had sports channels before i decided to visit.

 

Ive just put my 780 box on . It keeps saying invailid mac in the centre of the screen . Has anybody any ideas

 

Send it back to your supplier the only people that can fix that for you, not a fix anyone else can do for you only them.

 

Looks like the guy on facebook isnt available . Does anybody know anybody else who can fix it???

 

Would you be available with all the s**t that's flying 'round recently

 

Well that understandable but still leaves me with a broken box . Again does anybody know of a repair or new purchase solution please

 

I'll ask again . Does anybody know where I can my 780 repaired or buy a new one???

 

hi mantas if ur box is still under 12 months old u should b able to return to ur supplier id contact them by email or phone

 

Well its 11 months old . But the guy on facebook isnt answering . So look like i'll have to buy a new one. So I'm after a link to buy one or get mine fixed

 

You could try skywonder for a new box but they wont be able to repair it, you can either contact them by their webpage or by phone from their website if you go to the website you wont see the box on display contact only

 

i am thinking of formatting my pc and re install xp , i want to know if this will effect the kv box? as i remember there was some set ups when you get the box for the first time.any help will be good

 

all up and working after i took the box to my house and scanned, all programmes showing. so thank you all for your replies and especially e45 for the idea.

 

Does anybody know if kryptview a 780s are repairable?? I need to know this before i fork out for my broken one . Also is the a780 the latest model?

 

Send a mail to SKY W and see if they have one or if this error can be repaired, yes the A780 is the last model,

 

Sky w do have them . Cant repair them. Hope I get longer out the next one than the last one . Only lasted 11 month . Old starviews lasted years

 

lol, in light of the Starview debacle, your Krypt has lasted longer than most SV boxs will, the only time SV worked proper was before n2 and before the key rolls when you didnt need auto roll firmware, after that, they were rubbish

 

mantas 42, looks like you either have corrupt file or knackered network card. Try reflashing the box with the new firmware from your pc or laptop serial port to the port on the back of kv box. or try the very first firmware, see if that you can get past the invalid mac message then reflash agin with the new firmware. You might as well try this as you're not going to find anyone out there who will want to fix your box.

 

I'll try what cable do you need ?

 

Also is there a link for the firmware as the box downloads it itself

 

you need a 9 pin serial cable, you might have got this when you first bought the kv box or you could get it from maplins. The software can be found if you google it, or send me your email address and I will send it to you.
