I was told over the phone that you do but not sure. I have the horizon box and router set up downstairs and the standard HD box upstairs. In both rooms I have chased the cables under carpet and wooden floors so it's important for me to be able to prepare. TIA

If you can find a slightly older or similar Humax box you could try that model number, often they use the same or similar codes. Worst case you could have the Harmony learn a few of the key remote buttons and use them.

Have spent hours on Customer Support via WhatsApp, Twitter, and phone on Friday, Saturday and today and they still haven't resolved it! :mad:

I'll give you credit for your suggestion, because VM do not deserve any for the way they've dealt with the issue for the last four days. I was connected with an ethernet cable, so do you reckon that notwithstanding that, WPS has to be active? Cheers! Now I just need them to fix the issue on the TV Anywhere app which is saying that I do not have any subscriptions!
