1. Switching the Humax from wireless to cable
  
  I'm having problems with the Humax hogging the wireless connection when FTPing a file from the humax to a PC, none of my wireless devices can access the Internet during a FTP download. Also if I change the Transmission app setting using the web to unlimited download / upload speed, then I can't...

  I manually check your Twitter site (not a member yet) on my Andriod smartphone each morning, and note down the firmware version number of packages that have changed. Then using my phone I compare them using the web interface interface, to see if the installed package version matches.

  Thanks for you response Chris. I got a Satellite box called the Spiderbox, and it can run some of the MAME ROMS (about 20), it uses the remote control to play the games, you can map the remote keys to game controls on the MAME setup page, some of the games don't have sound. It's a very clever...

  Thanks. I understand now, the Wakeup / Sleep period event is only needed to bring the HDR into 'blue light' mode. If the box is left in 'blue light' mode all the time, then the RS can update the EPG events directly. I assume you would need a reboot event for the "auto-update" package to work.
