Getting closer, I live in Leyton.

How do I do a soft reboot on the Samsung STB or do I just have to switch off at the mains?
I had the STB switched off overnight, turned it on around 2.00pm and did not get any of my subscription channels for about 10mins. Thought something happened but still on 2MB.
