First off I'm new here so hello everyone!
Now, I got a skybox a couple weeks ago and put the satellite cable into my room, set it up correctly and had everything working for a week, I had it running as a bridged connection via ethernet cable through my laptop to my wifi and it was all working fine, then I updated the channels, this is where it all went wrong haha. I still have the same bridged connection, looked at a tutorial on how to update channels and it was simple, after I updated the channel list it stopped working for a couple of hours and then when I turned it back on it was working again, now it's stopped working and I don't know why? any ideas?

Go to menu, network connection, check its on and your ip address is on there, reboot and let us know.

I get same problem myself from time to time using virtual router on my laptop. Just reset your box, ip shud pop up on screen if its working.

If not with u having bridged connections, try restarting the bridge aswell.

Just did both things, all $ channels are scrambled still, in the network settings Ethernet is active and working, DHCP is on with the IP address, Subnet Mask etc on there too.
The free channels are working just not the $ channels, they're scrambled.

Can't discuss your problem on this forum as you are new would suggest reading the forum rules.

A clue would be to contact your provider.

As Nobby Nutz says you should read the rules.

The problem your having cannot be discussed here.
