    Default V8 Channel List Help Please .....

    Ok so im going to provide as much information as I can in the hope someone can help me sort my problem

    So my problem is that all my channels are coming up scrambled $ only on the V8 Box.

    I have an F5 box downstairs with the same Line ( of which Im allowed 2 per household)
    The box downstairs works fine no issue. Also the box downstairs isnt always on when the problem occurs.

    The V8 box randomly shows some channels and sometimes none at all . For example it will show sky sports 3 but not sky sports 1 or 2 or sky movies family and nothing else.......

    I have reflashed the firmware and uploaded the channel lists more times than I can count and the same problem persists. I am using the same channel list on both boxes AJ's list.

    It is connected to the internet through (homeplugs) . I test the connection each time with a laptop or playstation and that is fine. If i bring up the F5 box and connect that , that is also fine .

    Has anyone any ideas on what the heck is going on ? Is it somehow the channel list or is it box ?
    Any insight would be great thanks

    Sorry misread your 1st post = scrambled $ thought you said NO Signal

    make sure in the settings in the menu DCPH is on......on both boxes

    Google speed test & test you internet see what your getting.....but i don't think that is the problem

    The cheap open boxes are low end processors & always have this problem
    or it could be the other end where you get your TV from

    As with the word scrambled $ we have to be careful what we can say.....Most subjects along these matters are close to breaking the rules..

    Help with the box not a problem

    Help to gain free TV no go area

    That's not me being a D/Head ........Its just the rules we abide by on DK
