CH43 & 44 are having problems so I'm told. I have had them for three days now. Wish they'd hurry up and sort it out. I'd best press submit post before it goes off again..

Now I am almost constantly left with the network icon with a red cross through it. Great. I can dial up with modem but not through set top box. Says 'network cable unplugged'

I even tried newer drivers to no avail.

No the MCNS light on the set top box is still on.

I've even reinstalled the network card drivers.

I haven't got one. I've got an engineer coming out next friday but I want to know it's not my computers fault for sure. I'm guessing that the ammout of other people who have the same problem all of a sudden showing up on here means that it's not just me.

Dial up works fine and i'm away at the moment so I won't be able to check the status of it til next thursday. When I left it had been stable for a whole hour but that means nothing really. I'm hoping to hook another computer up to it to check how that goes but i only have one night to check it out.

Customer service was diabolical with any advice. I wish they'd hire people i could understand. but but ding ding ding doesn't mean crap to me.

I don't get it.....what were they doing? Ringing bells at you down the phone as a special hi tech version of Morse code? :shrug:
