I have had the new Sammy box installed, and i beleive the problem were all having is duplex Missmatch, basically ive heard from someone i know at NTL that the Samsung boxes work better on Half duplex, instead of full, which maybe why were getting all these problems, thing is that my Router cannot be changed and most wont be able to be, if you have a network card try adjusting the duplex to 100 Half.

This is quite astonishing really considering its a new design, 100Mbps full duplex should be the norm, and i cannot understand why it should work better on 100 Half, unless the ethernet port on the box has been set for half.

Anyway we all need to look into this further....
