No sorry, i had a box about a year ago which worked fine with the coax that im using.
This is a new box which hasnt been used before and the FTA or anything isn't working. I can't see why ...

Yep and the cable hasn't been touched/moved since the old box.
The box downstairs is working fine and i just can't see why.

I think your problem is not the box or firmware if as you say you have tried all providers the only other thing is cable not connected properly or you cable has been disconnected or there is a fault on the line m8

Yep that's my conclusion too DessertDog - but i don't understand why Freeview cannot be found when put in the attena in port ... this is the craziest part.

Don't know if you've tried but I think if your box downstairs is working try swapping them over,
