Hi guys,

I'm new to the forums, so please be gentle with me. Hope this is a simple question to answer for you. I have NTL installed, I'm in Manchester and I just have the base packet which came free for 12 months with my phone line. A friend of mine had his installed a couple of weeks after me and he is about 5 minutes away from me. His box appears to have locked up and is displaying 8888. He has just phoned me to see if mine was okay. Can you give me answers to the following questions;
1) What does the error message mean?
2) Is there some sort of master reset that will clear it?

He says he has unplugged it and plugged it back in but still gets the same error. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
