    Hi All,

    I have 2 MMDS boxes, 1 is an old Sagem 1, I've that in my bedroom. Yesterday the power went and since then I don't get any signal to the box in the bedroom, doesn't even have the time on it. It comes up with an option Transponder which I can change to Automatic. I've clicked ok with all the options (no luck) and also done a full scan under Automatic, anyone have any tips?

    The other box is working perfectly by the way

    Contact UPC, you pay a sub I assume?

    yeah, but have you ever tried to get through to them? There's more to life :) Thing is the box is in the bedroom so I keep forgetting about it during the day

    I think I sorted it, I changed the network ID to 51 and then went to automatic, it flicked a bit and found a network, no channels worked, but the time showed up. Went back and tried on 49, this time all the channels worked (well ones I've subscribed to) but was in the old format (RTE on 1, not 101), then went and put the ID to 50, all working again.
