      Did you turn your router off while you where a way ?????
      goto menu/network settings/ethernet setup/make sure DHCP is set to on....if it's already on turn it off...apply....reboot the box.....then go back & turn it on.....apply ...reboot the box see if that sorts it out....

      If not menu/ccam settings/manage/see if you have a green tick/& is it online or offline

        Eh? You only normally have to update your channel list when channels change transponders.

        I don't think every single channel changed transponders while xtrabbia1974 was on a weeks holiday. LOL.

              just check your network connections on your box menu, press apply . noticed sometimes it goes off on my f5 when i update channels list, and check your sat signal to make sure its strong
