    Skybox F3

    I've had a Skybox F3 for a few days now. I've noticed an issue. When I'm scrolling quickly through the channels, once watchable channels become scrambled, and then stay that way until the box is rebooted.
    Has anyone else had this issue? Or a possible fix?
    Thanks.

    Not had that problem at all with mine in 3 months.
    I would guess to try a different firmware

      Thanks for that. I'm guessing it may be a wifi issue, though I am using the official dongle.
      I'm also struggling a bit with the display settings. Any dark colours seem to blend into each other, and the brighter colours seen overblown. I've fiddled a lot with the settings, and it doesn't help that you can't see the picture as you're adjusting them.

        Are you using a dongle, or plugged straight into your router, , if you are using a dongle, try plugging straight into your router

          This will be my next step, though will probably involve the lifting of a floorboard or two.

            Try Powerline

            dare69 try using powerline units. I use these and they work great:
            Netgear 200Mbps Mini Powerline Twin Pack Ethernet Adapter
