At some point between Sunday night and Monday morning, something has killed (or at least wounded!) my Samsung STB.

I arrived home yesterday evening to find that I had no internet connection. I had a quick look at the STB and found that the green light (which confirms its internet connection) wasn't on. I then learned that the display on the front of the box had been acting strangely during the day, with the channel number display being corrupted, not showing the correct channel number etc.

Several reboots (including a complete power cycle) saw me being told that the software was being upgraded (I have already had the recent upgrade) and then sent me through to the engineering menu.

A few reboots later I was at least able to get the TV to work, but it has forgotten all of my favourites and settings. Broadband is still out. I have an engineer coming tomorrow but is this something others have seen ?
