DTV Died
 

We have lost about 90% of our channels (about 15 mins ago now) - does anyone know of any problems in the Nottingham area (or on the Langley platform in general) ?

Re: DTV Died
 

someone in Grimsby having problems....

Mine is AOK at the moment (fingers crossed!)

Re: DTV Died
 

bad weather possibly , chucking it down here :(

Re: DTV Died
 

Same symptoms here - the channel I was watching (722) froze, now 1 to 4 are ok, pretty much everything above that is dead (until the 800's). Grimsby is fed from Nottingham IIRC.

Re: DTV Died
 

Rebooted, now the box just sits on 'nit' with the occasional Err12. Thats some sort of progress....:)

Re: DTV Died
 

FWIW a friend has just called to ask what was happening, as his Rugby just disapeared before his very eyes :( Now all he has on the screen is "NTL is updating your services".

On a more positive note, my own analogue channels are still working... phew! :)

Edit: I forgot to add that this is the Lincoln are btw.

Re: DTV Died
 

It's looking like a Nottingham wide problem - I've posted on DS as well and a number have replied, all Dead. Who the hell do we ring at this time of night .... ??

Re: DTV Died
 

hi, we have 3 boxes 2 boxes are dead with the word nit on then it goes back to tune, the other box is working fine, i have tryed all the resetting etc so im i right in thinking this is a network error ? ive also has the error msg er_20 (i think it was on 1 box)

im in mansfield woodhouse, nottinghamshire btw :)

An engineer is on his way.
Looks like a rack has lost its power.
It will affect both Nottingham and Grimsby.

Re: DTV Died

Re: DTV Died
 

A cabinet that equipment is mounted in.

Re: DTV Died
 

it is a way of arranging a lamb rib roast

a torture instrument

a device for mounting computer circuit boards

Re: DTV Died
 

could well be...its all borked here :(

Re: DTV Died
 

It is - see post #9.

Re: DTV Died
 

i was thinking more along the lines of a woman chest ;) :angel:

Re: DTV Died
 

so it is. it's been down all day here... we assumed it was just cos we're a bit behind with the bill :erm:

i guess there's no point me reporting it, if it's so widespread?

Re: DTV Died
 

Thank f*** for freeview...

Re: DTV Died
 

Even if you wanted to report it, there's no-one to report to at this time of night :mad:

Re: DTV Died
 

Same thing for all those free to air channels i'm watching through the ntl coax too ;)

Re: DTV Died
 

i've still got freevew channels, and sky one. odd...

Re: DTV Died
 

True... but... I have to put up with bleeding York****e in Nottingham, because it's so flaming hilly.

Re: DTV Died
 

I only have one ntl channel - BBC News 24 (# 125) everything else is black screen. I have 2 set boxes, both dead.:confused:

I live in Cleethorpes and get my cable from Nottingham.

Re: DTV Died
 

Just tried the stb, working again :)

Re: DTV Died
 

still nothing here in mansfield, not even a blank screen the box now has nothing on the little screen at all, apart from 1 little green light in the top right :(

Re: DTV Died
 

The fault is fixed, you may have to re-boot the STB.

Re: DTV Died
