I have 2 254 boxes, each with different servers and 30Mbps internet.
I can watch live TV fine although occasionally it does freeze as well which I fix by changing the channel back and forth.

All weekend I was having freezing issues watching Video on demand eng movies and tv shows. I restarted the routers and boxes.
I also updated to R18 on both boxes.

In fact the freezing has been happening for a long time, I guess i'm just getting more frustrated with the box.

My question is do you think the box is the issue or the internet or the servers?

Sorry for the confusion.
I have 2 boxes and each box is connecting to a different server, so only 1 portal on each box is used but both are freezing when watching VOD's.
and in fact I have an older mag 250 box also having the same problems watching VOD's.

The servers are decent well known ones as well so i'm starting to think maybe these mag 254 boxes are not powerful enough.

I am wondering if I upgrade the box to either buzztv or dreamlink, will I still experience the same issues with Vod's?

I have a buzz tv and vod seems like that. i am thinking it is more of a server issue. but not really sure. i watched one movie which worked totally fine without any interruptions. after that, i played another movie which froze after 15 minutes, and then i tried another movie which also froze around 10-15 minutes.

Well theres goes my justification for upgrading these boxes..lol
I may have to just keep trying out other servers until I find one that does both Live TV and VOD's properly.

Does anyone know where I can find a copy of r14?
I don't know whats wrong with my box but after reinstalling R17 from the web, it isn't allowing me to install r14 or r18.
When it tries to update, it seems to hang and do nothing, i've left it alone for an hour just in case it was doing it in the background but it seems like the update program fails.
I'm going to try installing from USB instead.
