Re: NIT Scan Failed
"Its because the new signals haven't come through", what a load of bull.

The STBcan't lock onto the Network information table,(NIT) therefore can't go through the boot up process. Either there is a low signal level going into the stb and by holding down the Down button you are skipping the tune process, bypassing getting the NIT and hoping that it will work after this or the STB is knackered and needs replacing. I would say the STB is faulty and needs replacing.

Get back onto faults and insist that the STB is replaced.

Yes they do visits after 17:00hrs, can't remember up to what time though.

What you find normally happens is the STB will work with the low levels and also with the STB being faulty, then either there is a network outage or like in your case an electrical fault, the STB goes off then it won't work after power is restored or the netwotk outage has cleared. Or in your case the electrical surge, spike whatever is was has damaged internal components in the STB.
