I have pace D1400N STB. I do have a bad problem of switching of all electrical appliance in the house when not in need as I feel the LED is still sucking up some juice. So when I switched of my STB and tried to turn on next morning (sunday), it doesn't boot up. It just shows PACE and nothing happens. Tried many things and called up NTL (missed the Monacco Grand prix that week).

Poor NTL customer service, did not turn up on monday as promised. Next day he turns up and says "oh don't switch of the power supply these boxes has problem". As my wife was there, I'm not clear whats the reason behind this.

Now after couple of mistakes, I see no program listing in any channel. From previous experience turning off and back on solved this issue. Oh..........no its gone again. it doesn't boot up anymore.,,,,,,,,,,just displays PACE.

Do anyone know about this problem? Should I ask for a replacement STB this time. Or anyone knows how to get around?

I guess we are beginning to live without TV, may be I should cancel the subscription if NTL says I can't switch off the STB at night!!!!
