Thanks folks, this is great. There is no seamless saorview and freeview/freesat solution available that I know of without paying either Sky or UPC a subscription. However, for the two million or so of us that can get signal overspill this is not a bad compromise. Looking forward to trying it out...

Unless someone knows how to force the HDR ethernet link speed, I am stuck connecting my HDR through a switch to my router. (At minimum would have liked to confirm the problem was auto-negotiation.) My hummy did not like the downgrade to 1.02.20 (lost its channels & refused to find them again so...

Having just installed the tweaks on my HDR, it streams (on day one at least) both StDef and HiDef beautifully to my Raspberry pi running OpenElec(XBMC variant). To be honest I decided on the hummy over cheaper PVRs specifically to stream FTA recordings to XBMC devices. I agree the lack of...

Thank you af123, should have thought of this myself. Have seen auto negotiation causing problems in the past, particularly on Win-Xp PCs, but not failing all the time like this. Having confirmed that auto-negotiation works between my TP-Link and everything else, and now having gotten my HDR...

The TP-Link spec sheet says 10/100Mbps Auto-Negotiation (Auto MDI/MDIX), but doesn't give me the option of forcing a half duplex connection to verify (or indeed any indication as to actual link speed or that it is otherwise unhappy with link traffic). I have a Win7PC, a Linux PC & a raspberry...

I'm not too well up on the fine print of network protocols myself & unfortunately the TP-Link gives me lots of options but a very poor explanation of their impact, or why its not routing to the HDR properly. If there was a known bug with either the HDR or TP-Link it would be great starting...

The fact that my old router works made me wonder if there was a particular protocol that my new router is enabled for that the HDR doen't like?

I find I am researching a problem with my new HDR that has the same "undocumented feature" using the 192.168.2.xxx subnet. It will not connect through DHCP to my TP-Link td-w8961nd router (through wired ethernet), and while it will connect when set to manual, the connection is so bad as to be...
