TV Portal Won't Run

Yeah the exact settings from both network settings screens.
I know you can stream, but thats not a guarentee it can connect outside your local network.
 
At least I can do that without shifting kit around (I have enough on my plate this side of next week and I must not allow myself to get distracted off at the moment). I'll have a shot at the debug file too.

HDR-FOX: DHCP / 192.168.1.68 / 255.255.255.0 / 192.168.1.254 / 192.168.1.254

HD-FOX: DHCP / 192.168.1.64 / 255.255.255.0 / 192.168.1.254 / 192.168.1.254

The router is set to always allocate those IP addresses to the HDR-FOX / HD-FOX MAC addresses.

Hmm, no indication of why it failed, just that it did. Can you install the wget package and try and download the portal page directly? That might give a more verbose error.

Hmph. I just tried to enter the settings screen (webif) to enable developer mode, and got a runtime error:

Read-only file system??? What can change between the lounge and the bedroom?????

Why does it say "(Success)" at the end?!

OK, obviously to run the MSP I have a stick plugged in, and I didn't have a stick plugged in in the lounge (I don't think), but at the same time I'm pretty sure I've tried it in the bedroom with no stick.

Update: tried rebooting without the stick, still no portal.
 
Don't worry about the read-only filesystem message, it's because you ran the command from / which is read-only. This proves that your Humax can do everything it needs to in order to launch the portal, including connect to the Internet.. it doesn't help determine why it isn't working for you!
 
Personally, i think it must be a router issue.

The network settings are fine. Connectivity is fine.
The only thing thats not checked off the list is trying to get the portal to load on the HDR box from the same location.
I suspect this would fail also.
Maybe to avoid you unplugging everything all over again, just try looking over the IP details in the router and even try changing to a different IP - maybe use the HDRs IP and see if that works?
 
Here's a plan: move the HDR's HomePlug to the HD (easy) and see what happens then. I've REALLY got to do other things in the next couple of days though :(

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be very much I can do to configure the router, other than "fix" an IP address that has been allocated.

Really? The read-only message didn't happen in your wget dump. Where would I have to cd to so as to eliminate that difference?
 
OK then:

Looks identical to yours (except I just had to go in and strip out all the automatic parsing this forum editor stuffed in!.
 
I've got another "restore factory defaults" on the router on the list too (a painful process).
 
<sigh>

I went to install Custom Portal, and I didn't see it on the package list (I think you said it is now upgraded to mainstream?). So I did an update package list and got the dreaded

Code:
Runtime Error: /mod/var/mongoose/lib/pkg.class:56: Collected errors: * opkg_conf_load: Could not lock /tmp/opkg.lock: Resource temporarily unavailable. in procedure 'pkg' called at file "pkg.jim", line 60 in procedure 'pkg' called at file "/mod/var/mongoose/lib/pkg.class", line 42 at file "/mod/var/mongoose/lib/pkg.class", line 56

(by the way, whenever I insert code the editor always puts it at the start of the post and not where the cursor is. Same for everybody?)

I think I've seen somebody else post this problem recently, but I can't remember which thread.

UPDATE: The last time, the update list process seemed to hang and I abandoned it. I tried again and it all went through fine, and now I can see the custom portal in the list. I could remove this post, but I'll leave it up as a waypoint.
 
But let's not loose sight of the fact that the box works in the other location.
You only have these issues at the current location.
I'll stick to what I said before, there's something iffy with your network.
