    I have had a splitter connected to TV and Router. I thought it was due to that. Unhooked the two way splitter and now I got the straight connection from one splitter in TV (router disconnected) still having the same problem. I may want to do a scan again, don't believe this will work.

    Any suggestions. ! ? ! Cheers !
    okay your not on your own so dont worry
    i too am experiencing pic break up
    it has nothing to do with spliters or your internet connection lagging out
    nothing at all

    basically
    the providers at the moment are seriously playing with the feqs moving them arround ect and whatever they are doing to them seems to affect all encripted channels when this happens

    i do not know weather they are simpally maintaing there system , or weather its a fight back from them because of the auto update key firmware realised

    some times this happens 2 to 3 times a day ,
    im having to somtimes run a new power install scan upto 3times in a row just to get the channels back and get rid of the fuzz and interferance

    this has only been happening for about a week now

    and im not 100% sure its affecting everyone and all box's

    but it is a major stress at times
    as like i said you have to spend upto an hour and a half sometimes running scan after scan before you can get rid of the interferance

    alltho sometimes you do get lucky and 1 scan fix's it

    i do hope thats theres some kind of fix on the way for this problem

    as its more annoying than having to enter keys (not that i have 2 do that anymore) but same way very annoying and time consuming

    infact its pissed me off that much i have brought a 90cm motorised dish and dreambox to get me by while this is down and playing up
    (that and to watch propper football)

    but to be honest so far ive had more luck with scanning the eurovox box than
    i have finding a sat engineer willing to fit my motorised dish for me

    so if there anyone in the midlands that know a good sat install guy that deals with the motors then gimmie a shout as that too is pissing me off

    but good luck mate and i hope its answerd a few questions
    any info on firmaware fix lemmie know

    im using eurovox ex5000 PVR and Pure keys

    and it does fix it but like i said sometimes you have to run more than 1 scan trust me ive been having to do this constantly for over a week
    and have lost count of the amount of scans i have had 2 run ,

    and yes ive had it again this morning and yes ive had to run so far 3 scans and have got rid of the interferance but have not yet found ss12and3 again YET 4th scan comming soon

            ive had my ex5000 pvr with hd
            for arround 6 months now and never had any problems with signal
            ive only had problems for a week and its while i have been using the new firmware at 1st it worked fine then they started moving channels and since then ive had problems

            like i said it cant be a signal problem from the cable line as i would have had problems before hand

            and when they play with whatever they do it affects ALL channels untill you rescan the box now today for the 1st time when scanning it hasnt got rid of the interferance on skysports 1 and 3 alltho 2 and xtra are fine

            it cant be the signal the line carries this has got 2 be somthing to do with the firmware

            any ideas from any of the moderators ?

              yeh I agree.

              My cos and I use the same box, same firmware and he lives a mile or two away.
              Everytime there is a problem I speak to him and he says "its all fine"

              Whereas I have signal breakups, sometimes to the extent where it says "No or Bad signal" followed by "Code being updated. Please wait." ????

              I tried the autofix, and the new firmware 1/12/2008 released. Deep scan, etc but no luck.... this started last night Sunday 28/12/..

              I had feeling that there is no signal. But internet is working.

              I tried the Booster as well. Although when I bought it last week the problem had solved itself. Which tells me the booster does not make any difference. !!

              I believe the firmware may also not make any different.! I would just have to sit back and watch.... when it will hopefully solve itself like last time.

              but I also hope there is a solution...
