I have a 4000N STB and it's been playing around since I had it installed in December. I have to reboot once a day as I keep losing the EPG ('No Schedule Available') Sometimes going into interactive brings back the schedule and sometimes not.

Secondly, every now and then the remote and controls on the front of the STB don't work. I get picture and BB access but no response from the controls bringing on another reboot.

Thirdly, I get the odd 'Exception Reboot' which always happens when something interesting is on!

Finally, about once a week I get a 'Mute Card' message come up on screen which doesn't affect anything but is a bit concerning. On pressing the Up Down and Blue it says something like 'Driver but card can't talk to it'.

None of these things are fatal but a bit annoying. Do you reckon it's a duff box or a network problem? I had a model 2000 box where i used to live a 100 yeards up the road and it was totally fine for 2 years.
