I'm on latest software and have hopper3 with plus. Lately the hopper is reporting no internet yet I'm able to use streaming apps just fine. Thus wasn't a problem until paramount wants an update to continue using the app, which obviously it's connecting to internet to know there's an update. But when I hit download it says no connection. Also if I try to do it manually by going to the play store it also says no connection and I can't use internet based channels such as dishscapes because it says I'm not connected. But I'm clearly connected and can watch Netflix or Disney or whatever other apps all day with absolutely no issues. I've reset the network on the hopper, reset the hopper itself, reset my entire network, and nothing works. Connected by ethernet but also tried wifi and no change. Any ideas from anyone.

Wow, haven't seen that one.
Try doing a manual update on the Hopper itself, even with the newest version, it could still run it

Perhaps it's an IP conflict on your network between the Hopper and another device. Try mapping a manual IP address if it has that option. OR, if the Hopper3 has BOTH wireless AND wired, switch to the other one to try. Such as going from a wired connection (unplug the cable) to a wifi connection as a test.
