    Film 4 has been pulled off the NTL/UPC network today without explanation.

    A 'Channel off air' is being displayed.

    UPC have also announced price increases from July 1st across some packages......

    It's still showing (as is the +1 version) on the EPG here in Bray.

    They have changed some freq details. If you unplug and turn back on your reciever should re install your channels to the new details. My MMDS box has been doing a lot of shutdowns and restarts recently i have noticed.

    Same here in Dublin City centre.

    Film Four, and the + 1 were gone all day yesterday
    About 2am this morning the box (small pace) did a restart
    and they came back.

    I noticed that under the tech info/help screen
    number 8 was reading 13-197
    after a manual re-set it now reads 13- 190

    Maybe there are more channels on the way or it could be just extra data streams for the system to use. Before the auto reboot this morning it
    read 13-187.

    I was also getting the " you have not subscribed to this channel " message all week on various channels at random times. Maybe my Pace box is on the way out.

    i read elsewhere, that there was a lot of code rolling today, presumably in an attempt to knock out pirate box's. All these code rolls probably confusing your pace box as well

    My DVR has been doing the same (rebooting itself frequently). Anyone know how to fix it?

    Don't know too much about this, but if it's really frequent and is rebooting a matter of every few minutes, I'd say the box is screwed and suggest you ring in to get it swapped. One possibility is that the wrong city code or network ID has been entered when setting it up, which can cause it to continuously reboot. Again, suggest ringing Chorus NTL and checking it.
