It was gone today till around 1 PM eastern. Been watching it this afternoon and on now as of this post. That said it has been spotty as of late but still there for all practical purposes.

Then please explain to me why I have the service working just fine when others don't??? Hello???? McFly????? If it was the servers, then everyone would be down... DUH! I have yet to see that. I read here a lot. I see a complaint the service is down.... I change to the channels being complained...

Seems to happen here at 4 and again at 6. Also seems to happen at noon. Like I said I just go to WGN or Newsmax, or Bloomberg. Those seem to be problem free. After 10 to 15 minutes the rest come back like clockwork. just my observations. Have a great day!

This just happened to me. All black at 4 pm est. Tried channel after channel and nothing. Rebooted box. (Mag 254). still blak everywhere I go. Then went to WGN News and it loaded. then went to FNC and it finally loaded. That said it is now about 4:15 est. Maybe they stop the squirrel to change...

Personally I doubt nothing when it comes to the internet.... All I have is a whopping 6 meg down. But if person one says he is freezing.... then person two shows he isn't... Pretty much rules out the service and puts the blame on someplace between you and them. (Or memory or any other...

Just a thought here.... Maybe I'm crazy..... But if I am, insanity has it's advantages. Nobody has a direct line to the servers. Everyone has a router, Modem, and who knows how many "Hops" through different networks or servers just to get to the service. To pinpoint blame on the service alone...

For what it is worth..... It seems to be every day the U.S. channels just go dark at or around the 4 PM EST. I have noticed this for awhile now. Then within 15 minutes or so they all come back. WGN News still works along with NewsMax and the British channels but the US channels go dark when it...

MAG 254 with 6 MB.... Been watching all day and still is. Try a reboot.

Try unplugging the mag. Leave unplugged for a few minutes to insure the capacitors are powered down. Then let it reboot and reload the portal. Always worked for me. With the latest firmware on the mag, they don't shut down. they stay in standby mode. Rebooting will clear it out. Worth a try...

20 minutes might be a little extreme. My apologies for not being more specific. Only need to leave unplugged till the capacitors drain down. I usually go for about 2 - 5 minutes. Usually that is all the time the caps need to power down.

For what it is worth....... I have had the service go down, (Or so I thought), Then one day out of frustration I unplugged the box and waited a few for it to power completely down then rebooted it. Immediately upon the portal loading everything came back! Did that a few times the last few weeks...

I think they are adding and removing channels. Been intermittent for awhile now.

Hey! Thanks for the reply! After going to the big dish for the last hour I am pleased to report that both channels are back. Wasn't complaining in my posts, just reporting so those in charge could check things out. Personally I wish more would do this as opposed to just complaining or saying...

Just now..... same thing on Fox business............... Whats going on? Beuller? Bueller? Beuler? Did Ferris take a day off? :)

FNC just went black. Fox news..... about 8:20 EST. Black screen. It just went off then tried to reload a few times before just staying Black.Went up a channel to Fox Business and it is fine. Thanks

They do say up to 24 hours. That said I always allow an extra day if I renew on the weekend. After all they get weekends too. Today I renewed about 3 minutes ago. Got confirmation in e-mail before I was able to leave the renewal page! Very fast guys! Thanks for this service.

Things that make ya go Hmmmm. My old netgear DM111PSP modem and 5 year old Belkin -N- router still kickin! The thought that ISP could be causing trouble maybe through their modems and or routers by maybe updating firmware..... That is a good thought to consider! Hopefully some of these people...

I have never done the reset thing. That said, I have changed MAC addys to something else then back to my correct one again in the past and it worked. That said, it has been a long time since I had to do that. Also I'm on a mag 254 which is different than your model. I do know some of the mags...

If the info in a post was more accurate it would be easier to help people that have problems. Just seeing "This is down" don't give much to go on but people do try to help. At the same time people are only human and we all need to vent sometimes. Maybe a Venting section?? We are all here for the...

Thank you! You just admitted that some of your clients are not having the same problem! There is the proof by your own admission that the service in general is not down! All I am saying is people need to be more accurate in their posts. The service is not down! Maybe some are having trouble...
