OK to continue the saga I got it in the neck tonight from the family because the 'dear' Box has done what I suspected it would- ie automatically retune itself even though I didn't want it to. So to recap the story- Box Tuned into both Wales and Mendip- Multiple scheduling problems_ Good...

Ok it seems that I am tuned to both a Welsh transmitter and an English one(mendip) even though at the end of an automatic retune I selected the English one- I guess the box doesn't sort them too well as I had a number of duplicate channels- mainly in the 800+ range. So I followed the...

Hi Blackhole- thank you for your reply. We use the t2 everyday so I guess that means it's not that the EPG is not getting a regular update. I read the piece about retuning will wipe out schedules but I haven't manually retuned since installation. Does it sometimes automatically retune itself...

I have an hdr foxt2 500 which I am generally really pleased with, but I do have one annoying problem with series recording. I find that if I set it to record a series it works fine for two or three recordings and then without warning it doesn't record an episode. Does anyone know what might be...

I will try it anyway since my speed has already dropped back from 3 to 1.5. Interestingly aol suggested that I try their speed checker a couple of times a day- 'to monitor how things go' - I wonder if that was code for what you are suggesting. Will report back in due course.

Thank you , that worked perfectly!

Can someone please tell me how to delete a series created folder? I've deleted the contents ie each recording but the empty folder stubbornly remains there!

Thought I should let the good people who had helped me, know how I got on with this . You were all correct in that the eventual culprit (apart from my initial non configuring!) was my isp. Having had a very long and heated converstation with aol, low and behold my line speed went from .3mbps to...

Thank you both for your very helpful replies. At least I understand the problem now. A very good forum.

Yes configuring did the job- I am now connected through the portal. Downside is that the picture /sound stops/starts every few seconds as if it can't stream data fast enough. My connection said 54 Mbs . Any thoughts . I live in the sticks and my download speed is usually no more than 2.0- is...

Hi thank you both for your replies. I'm afraid I'm not really up to speed on all this stuff but will try! Firstly I haven't configured the dongle- I just plugged it in- so that sounds like a good starting point. Go to Settings and follow the trail I guess ?I do have the key for the router. I'll...

Hi Just signed up after having purchased the Edimax 7711uan as recommended here for the hdrt2. Took it out the box and plugged it . Green light flashing on the dongle but the box can't connect with my router-a wireless Netgeardg834gv5. the box is downstairs and the router upstairs is this...
