have you checked on net application to make sure it is on ustream and on ip set up to see if your ip details are there?

hi mate
yes its set to ustream, and ive set network to dhcp, and i can see the units got a local ip address issued to it by router. Its def connected to router and b/band. funny thing is i bought 2, one for a friend.friends box stopped working as well, so im thinking if its the cs server. only way to tell if others are having same issue or its just me and my friend

do a factory default and rescan. Its strange that both have gone down. Mine is working perfectly. Where did you buy them from?

hi
bought it from a website from someone i have used before to buy starviews. yes i find it strange too. tried factory default, reset router. everythong looks fine, just that its not connecting to cs server for some reason. i can only think its something at the server end. does anyone have a support email address or a way to contact the server hosts

contact the people you brought it from. You cannot get support or details of the server host as cs is illegal

Do you have friends in other towns? It may be that there might be a problem in your area
