  Taking Humax off the Network
  
  Thanks for the detailed info! Yes,you are right I could go back to standard now at this point. And maybe even finally discontinue the Humax eventually. I've had an amazing amount of use from this device through the years!

  Taking Humax off the Network
  
  Thanks. I might try uninstalling those soon. I rarely watch terrestrial TV now. I've currently only got the Handmaid's Tale on Ch4 scheduled and a load of films on the Humax recorded going back about 2 years back, which I never seem to get around to watching... I could watch Handmaid's tale...

  Taking Humax off the Network
  
  Hi all, I no longer need to use remote scheduling or (probably) have my Humax on my LAN. Do I need to do anything in the customised firmware settings or can I just pull the LAN cable? Thanks!

  Updating crontab using the crontab -e command (vim)
  
  Thanks - I meant the "proper" way When using Linux terminal. The usual way of editing a crontab is to issue the "crontab -e " command :)

  Optimising Power Consumption
  
  Bad news is that the extra 20w isn't putting the heat where I need it really - If I had a longer network lead I could put the the Humax in my bed to warm my feet :)

  Guidance on backups
  
  Mind you, I can copy the /mod/bin/tar file to gtar, set the execute permisson and then typing gtar at the terminal works :-) Maybe a bit clunky though - I guess there must be some way of overriding the busybox version.

  No doesn't seem to be... If I type gtar nothing.. If I type tar, I get BusyBox v1.20.2 (2013-01-02 19:13:09 GMT) multi-call binary. typing which tar gives /mod/bin/tar and I can run it directly (and this is gnu version it seems...) but how to overidde the default tar command?
