I have a H-20 and yesterday it rebooted about three times. I thought maybe there were rolling brownouts in my area, now I'm not so sure. Also, watching football on local CBS, there were times when the feed was lost. All other local channels were fine.

How is it working now?

Had to reboot again around noon time. Same issues as earlier today. You don't notice it while watching a channel, only when you try to change to some other channel.

It was working just fine this morning.

Add me to the list of users with problems. Woke up this morning (sounds like the Sopranos

) around 5:30AM and my HR20-700 would not turn on. I pressed the RBR and nothing happened - pressed it again and nothing. Logged on to this and DBS site to see if anyone was having problems, then noticed receiver rebooting. Everything looked fine - nothing erased, all programs still intact. Watched it a while and turned it off. When I turned it on just now, same problems as this morning. This time however, the RBR took about a minute and a half to reboot after I pressed it. After reboot everything looks OK, but I don't dare turn it off.

Has D* given any type of hint to what the problem may be to anyone whose spoken to them?

This was just posted on the DBS site:

happened to me too.. I woke up at 5:45am, tried to turn on both HR21, and HR22.. but would not response to the power buttons on remote or box itself. Did reset (red button) on both units, and all returned to normal.

I woke up this morning and tried to put on a show for my daughter and I couldn't change the channel, after a reboot it worked fine. I am working from home today so I just tried to watch some tv during lunch and the receiver is locked again, I just pressed the reboot button.
