Receiver froze up?

[Hemi 6.1]

I mentioned earlier that I had check on 2 of HR2x this morning and they were ok. Well just now my daughter who is out of school for the summer called me and said that all 3 HR2x boxes were dead. I had her unplug all 3 and they came back up. But after a minute they froze up again. So I had her RBR. They now seem to be ok.

I did see it mention at the other site that the problem could be guide data related and you need to do two resets within 30 minutes to fully flush the guide.

I'm waiting for my sister to call soon on this.

She has HR21

Agree, and change the Title, since it was a software issue , and not really the equipment . Or was it?

Looks like software, seeing it is happening on most all recvrs. (except the HR24's)

Funny thing is, the software version has not changed from what I d/l ed last Friday, if they sent software, would'nt that have changed as well ?

Or maybe they sent it to us and didn't impliment it till this morning.

Yup...on my second unplug reboot now of all my DVRs...question is...what the heck do the other 99.9% of the D* customer base that do not get on these forums do. Imagine the phone lines into D* CSRs today! I am just waiting for the call from mom.

I think that this is why some think it may be guide data related instead software download. We've had guide data problems cause these kind of system wide issues before.

HR20 700 had to unplug and reset twice and is ok. HR20 100 did the same but will not respond to remote or panel for channel change or power off. Will reboot for the third time I guess.

Yep, they should make sure this stuff doesn't happen. And Scott and DBS talk should let D* that most of the members had issues and fixed it themselves.
That way D* doesn't think it was a complete success without a hitch.

If 3rd don't work, try calling D* and they will resend the update, Then one more reboot should do it. Make sure you have 1 hour of your time to spare.

Ditto, I was wondering if mine just died...Unplugged and everything was fine..Phone has been ringing off the hook all morning with mad customers....Everyone I have had re-boot came back up with no problem...
