    i'm back with a problem. the box super (2 of them) won't update. it only happened today. usually it was the 0% problem but if it moves it gets to 1500% then shows the channel info like it's fixed then updates again stuck on 0%. no encrypted channels work. are nthell up to something again.

    by the way it's Dublin Ireland.

    i heard about one for uk but i don't think that will work for us and it would probably start rebooting again.

    Is there a UK update for the Max V that will work on boxes in Ireland, if so can you point me to it? I've looked in Eamo's library - can't see one for Max V. Cheers
