2110 stuck in update loop

[g80878]

I have got a 2110c and want to change the net id , it wont let me enter the em instead it keeps trying to update itself ( LD:30 , then numbers roll to 1072 , then starts again ) ,I had this problem on other 2110 before that wouldn't in the em , it turned out that the previous owner had removed the eight legged chip closest to the power board and hadn't soldered it back properly , this was easily fixed , checked all chips on this one and they all seem to be ok?

Any help or advice would be gratefully received

Take the card out and leave it untill the update finishes, it might take long, depending on ur signal.

left it on for ages , dont think it will update cos the net id isn't set for my area ( TW ) , infact i don't know what the net id is set to as cannot access EM. Thanks for the input anyways ouzi

try reasing the netid by pressing standby, left, right and ok, then see if u can access the eng menu, then you will have to set the netid using a funcard, hopefully the stb will update properly after that.

I have tried the resetting trick , seemed to go ok but still no access to em just stuck in the update loop , rolls to 1072 and starts again , just set up a sperate feed ( not to interupt wifes viewing ) and gunna leave it all night , but not holding my breath on this one , looking like the doorstop collection is about to get 1 teir higher.

Thanks again ouzi

Never got it to Update mate , Has been used for spare parts .

EDIT: Just noticed your in a Pure area , Have you tried the hard reset method ? Should auto set Net ID and update ? Just a thought.
