Tell him to look on the virgin web site as his area could have a fault that they are fixing, it will tell him on there.
Also check all cables to see if any have come loose....

just checked virgins website no issues in the west of scotland.

if thats ok wot about a reboot of the box?

That could work as it could be the emu that as crashed if he still gets free to air channels.

some reports in other forums of boxes going down in Leeds area, does his subbed box work?

[tamgunner]

this is a different query but if he had interent access is there a way that i could access his box over the net from his house?

Try a reboot of box not on remote. But power button and channel up button together,report back... M

[tamgunner]

All the channels have changed in Leeds a re-scan should bring em back but they will not be in your normal channel list just in unsorted.

Correct, a propper rescan will find all channels as some serious freq changes happening. But I would suggest peeps in Leeds, after a rescan, should do some logging and confirm if a strange new caid is showing too (like 1841)?

Also note the new box update streams.????

Summat strange going on, smells like n2 testing?

[PaphosAL]

Why would they bother with wasting ?160,000,000+ on converting to n2, if there's already a fix out for this, SS? Or could it herald n3? Either ways, let's start worrying when the new subbed box cards start dropping through our letterboxes, LOL!

Cheers- AL

[SatSearching]

Ok, it might not be n2, but others are now confirming the 1841 in the stream!

n2 would be 1801, n3 would be 1802, so don't know what this 1841 is.
