Earlier, I was on the net when it died. I went downstairs and the middle light had gone. I didn't see the TV before I restarted because it was turned off, but when I rebooted the STB, now it only gets as far as "nlt" (honestly, I do seem to have a dyslexic box). Normally the screen goes white and flashes up the NTL logo, but it outputs no picture and stays stuck on "nlt". Occaisonally it flashes up with Err11, and Err12. I reported the fault and the woman said it was: "Unable to find virtual channel table" or something.
What does that mean? Also, She said it might be an area fault as their call volume suddenly shot up. Is anyone else in the East London area having this problem? If not, I have to wait til monday til the technician arrives. Bloody weekends!
On the plus side, I might get one of the new sexy Samsung boxes. Hopefully, it will be better because I have 1meg broadband, and the problems with that and DTV on the 4000 boxes are legendary.
