Wonderful array of error messages

Hey guys.

My NTL service has been going beserk recently.... I think my STB is b0rked (being technical ), but here goes.

My Internet kept dropping, but if I reset the STB, It came back. Then all of a sudden, the TV connection died, although the Internet still worked. Sometimes it showed "ERR3", sometimes "ERR2", most of the time, it just said "No Channels Available". I called Faults, and they did something with signals, and the TV came back (Dunno if it was a coincidence or not), but I got "ERR3" again, and fairly consistant Internet drops. There are other problems that started at the same time.... Such as the STB affecting the picture on BBC1 etc, when the STB is on, but not when its turned off.

So basically, my question is this:

What do the following error messages mean:

1. "ERR2"
2. "ERR3"
3. Flashing alternate: "ERRS" and "LAIT", When the STB did something to itself (Im guessing what the Faults department did.)

A couple of things... An engineer came before, and put a signal limiter due to a high strength. Could these problems be lack of signal strength? The other info is:Its an Digital Pace STB (I think), Im on the Bromley platform (I live in East London) CR3. I dunno what nodel my STB is, although i could tell you if someone tells me how to find out!

I appreciate any help anyone can give. Thanks
