Hi

Is that on your free channels too or just the pay ones, if its the pay ones then perhaps problem on provider end.

**robbell** · 12th April, 2012, 09:15 PM

I don't know about firmware have been in touch with provider says mine is the only one with a problem

Hi

Then I would say its a server issue probably over subscribed. You need to contact whoever you are with.

Regards

Edit: Have a look via the menu to see what firmware you are on.

or try a test off someone else.

**robbell** · 12th April, 2012, 09:21 PM

could you tell me where to look on the menu to find it

**mast** · 12th April, 2012, 09:24 PM

H

Dont have an openbox but think if you go into menu and info should tell you firmware date, think it will start with a H or similar.

Hi

Dont really think the firmware is an issue here. If your box is a clone then think the anonymous firmware works pretty well.

You wil need to check if your box is orig or clone and flash accordingly if thats what you want to try.

Theres a thread on here on how to check wether box is clone or not.

Would rather try a test line first. Oh and what was wrong with your first box as a matter of interest.
