Good Evening All,
I have a Blade BM7000S box, a couple of weeks back a Lightening Strike blew my Virgin Router, travelled down my LAN cable into the Blade Box. This subsequently blew the HDMI Output of the box, and the HDMI Input to my TV. I also believe that it has blew the LAN input. I can use the blade box via the Scart and it works fine but will not connect to the internet, therefore I assume that it has blew something with the LAN Input.
When I turn the box on, the LAN lights flash once, but then will not connect at all. I have used the same cable on the Laptop, therefore I know that the cable is fine.
My question is, can I use the WIFI Dongle on the BM7000S? I seem to see different things on various forums.
Secondly, if it does work, do you know if a USB splitter would work so that I can connect to the WIFI and also plug a HDD to record?
Thanks
Dan
