    Alright lads, bit of help if ya could please. Trying to sort out SV6 for a mate, been at it for a few hours now to no avail. This is my first bash at an SV6, was familier with the older SV's but switched to KV once the new NAG rolled out. Followed all the tutorials etc, put 'theshowmustgoon2.12' via usb, factory reset and scan (have scanned with LAN cable in & out). Cables are fine pressed 1819 on SS1, tried resetting router box off for 2 mins etc, all prem channels say 'scrambled'. Read somewhere I have to make sure it's on U-Stream through network in options. Is this correct as when I go into network there is only 2 choices, IP setup & SW download.

    PS - Don't know how long he's had this box, is it goosed if it's over 12 months or am I off the mark there?

    Cheers

    box should be fine
    later flashes remove the need to set ustream etc

    go into network settings/ip and scroll to bottom and click apply, that will
    zero them out. Wait 10 secs and it should refresh.
    If it's picking up these then network should be ok.

    exit, go to sly 1, press 1819 on remote and it should say enabled.

    leave on that channel for a few minutes and it should come back on

    pressing centre button on remote should show connected at bottom of telly if all ok.

    If I have an issue I usually reboot the box as well as modem.

    PS, I never bother factory resetting and never have had a problem as I hate
    re deleting all the garbage.

    Guys I need help.
    I installed the new firmware and search for the channels, enabled it using 1819.
    It's picking all the IP settings s but no channels work except for free ones.
    Are there anything that I am missing?
    It says Not Connected at the bottom.

    Had a stab at that mate, zero'd out all the addresses & it kicked back in again. Still say's not connected in the bottom right of the screen. If i try & do s/w update the 2 bars display on the screen but they don't fill up, they just vanish. I think modem & everything is ok coz as soon as i plug the Kryptview in everything is sound. How do i know if the firmware has loaded on correctly, is there a screen that tells me whats flashed on the box? When i downloaded 'theshowmustgoon2.12' its just a 'white sheet' that i save to my desktop then transfer onto the usb stick. It also says unknown file, should it have a specific file type? Sorry if there's a few questions there just trying to get to the bottom of it. Cheers, jb

    Your pc wont recognise it because it does not have an association with it, just ignore that and put onto pendrive.

    Browse to usb on stb and upgrade, if successful it will say so and say rebooting in 3 seconds.

    Go to sly sports 1, select 1819 (enable) and wait around a minute and it should be ok

    I also find occasionally that switching off via button at back helps it find it's brains. Not a bad idea to reboot modem/wireless router also

    To check if update ok do the following.

    menu
    utility
    system info
    should show 2.12

    Strange one that, usually rebooting etc get's it working again.

    Seems you are not alone in this.
