Re: STB rebooting
Any indications that this happens when your not watching TV?
It might be worthwhile trying to work out if there is anything in the house that switches on at the same time as the STB reboots i.e. fridge or freezer pump starting up, washing machine starting a spin cycle, another biggy is the central heating pump kicking in, its not unknown for that sort of thing to cause a surge in the mains that can fool the STB into thinking theres a loss of mains which makes them reboot.

Another possibility is a heat build up, is there an adequate airflow around the box?
