    DC Subs: Are you having trouble receiving WTTG (Fox)?

    Problems here as well. I have to reboot the box to get Fox5. If I change the channel to 4 (NBC), 7(ABC) or 9 (CBS) and try to go back to FOX, it will say No Signal.

    I was watching a movie tongiht and all of a sudden the STB shuts itself off and reboots... when it came back up.. it looked like this: Is this one of those software updates that come on at night? or something else? Seems odd they would do it at about midnight EST.
