Have all new BT YouView box with BT Home Hub 4. Every time the hub is re-booted the YouView box does not re-connect to the network automatically, even though Network connection is set to Automatic. If the CAT5 lead is disconnected/reconnected to the box then the connection does get restored...

Thanks for your replies, I have solved it. It was that Windows 7 had turned off Network Discovery and Media File Sharing itself for some reason. I should have guessed it was a file permissions issue from the error message and I knew it wouldn't be the Humax that was the issue.
