    No good still not picking up the IP. Cant work out why it picked up my mates address but not mine. But still the problem of chanels not working in either house.

    if its not connecting, you wont get any encrypted channels like sly sports. can you view bbc1 bbc2? cos you should be able to view those two as they not encrypted.

    try a new ethernet cable?
    make sure both ends of the cable (sv6 & router ends) are securely connected?

    The normal cable chanels are fine bbc etc, so no problem with the cable connection, have used another ethernet cable , the one from computer so I know that works. Was wondering if the problem is with the box itself, or the internet, like I said mates connection picks up IP straight away but not chanels, mine not pick up either. The main thing is my mates connections are working fine so my box may be at fault, but what exactly.

    it might be worth flashing the box once again m8, with the new firmware, try this;

    Unzipped firmware:
    http://www.box.net/shared/akxtrdfyio

    1: Remove Ethernet cable from sv6
    2: Load the new showmustgoon 2 firmware
    3: After the sv6 has rebooted, Reset the sv6 to Factory Default
    4: Scan for channels from main fead, do not change any settings(do not connect LAN yet)
    5: Connect Ethernet/LAN to sv6 (give it 30 seconds)
    6: Go to a encrypted channel like sly sports 1, press 1819 on Remote, should say enable


    7: if after 2 mins, channels dont work, then turn off sv6 at the back, then after 2 mins turn on again.

    if there is new firmware always load it to your box, it may not give more chans, but may offer stability
