Just wondering whether anybody else has experienced this or has any ideas as to why this happens. I'll explain further.......
We have a Pace DI4010 STB installed with our main television. It was replaced as an Ntl engineer explained that it's predecessors (ie DI4001, etc) were inclined to overheat especially around the Card slot.
In my opinion, ever this box is inferior to the previous ones. It always locks up; it's slow when using the EPG; interactive almost never works (hmm, perhaps this isnt unique to this box!!).
One strange thing that I have noticed recently is that the STB take its own decision to reboot itself. For example, I was sitting at lunchtime having a bite to eat; the tv was on but I wasnt watching it. All of a sudden I heard a "pop" coming from the tv and noticed that on the front of the STB was the word "PACE" (as if someone had switched the box off at the wall socket and turned it on again). The STB then continued to reboot in the normal way.
Is this a fault with the box; a sign of an oncoming problem; or is it just normal??
If only Ntl would stop giving out the PACE boxes and give everyone a brand spanking new Samsung one (of which I've heard rave reviews).
Any ideas???
