    By default, without a card the box assumes you are in London and puts BBC etc in that order. Irish channels are only available on a sky box with a valid subscription card.

    Hi all. I have the same problem. Did all of the above, talked to sky and did firmware download. Still no joy. Card works ok in son's skybox. Maybe I need new skybox. Thanks
