Default Please help (I'm going bonkers)

Hello everyone, Sorry I've not posted before and now i'm jumping in with a question?

I got a Eurovox EX1000SL off Lincsat last summer, everything was working fine till about 3 months ago. Random channels keep displaying 'No or Bad Signal' and the only way i can get this to clear is to flick very quickly through the channels till the box crashes and resets itself, then everything is fine again for a couple of days till it happens again. Any ideas. Thanks in advance.

Oh, I'm living in Lincoln.

What's your signal levels like? Also, do you have any splitters connected to your cable feed? If you do, try removing them and running the cable straight into the box.

I'm just up the road in Newark. I have an EX5000PVR. The frequencies have been changing quite regularly so channels on one or more frequencies will not be where they were. Things seem to have quietened down somewhat now so the best thing to do is to do a factory reset on it, then a full deep scan, then re-organise your favourites when you have all the channels back.

If you know what frequencies have changed and what they've changed to you can edit them, then do a manual scan on the new frequencies to bring back your missing channels, then just look in the TVCh's at the end of the TV listings for any that have come back incorrectly named.

Hope that helps.
