I never really tried to connect by H24-700 (yes, it's an H24 not an HR24 as noted in the title, sorry) to the internet before - when I had it all installed there was little available via the connection (no such things as apps, I don't purchase events/movies), and I'd have a cable stretching across a doorway and floor.
But today, for fun, I took a very long ethernet cable from my router in the office and connected to the HR-700, but when I go to Menu>Apps it tells me it's not connected to the internet. At the back of the H24-700 where the port is (RJ-45?) the lights are solid orange and blinking yellow, and I think a green would signify a connection?
I've tried rebooting the unit twice (once by removing power, once by using the red button behind the card door) while keeping the network cable connected, and that didn't work.
Any ideas before I give D*TV a call? Thx!
