must be the server issue. would everyone not be affected the same though?

do you have your lan cable going from router to box & is the light on the back of box where lan is inserted
when you flashed with new firmware did you da a factory reset and follow guide and make sure everything was double checked make sure in the emu/keycode everything was on
your ip settings should be on automatic and make sure you press apply, ect.ect..with the rest of the guide
i have just put mine on there (in dub aswell) and just the usuall ch missing

im getting over 300 plus radio,you need to scan box without splitters ie your main cable coming into house is cable that you should connect to box,also when you go to a channel are you getting a message saying you are connected?

if everything was good with the file you had on before put it back on, as we are all missing some basic channels

just back but have to head out again.the only thing i can suggest at this point is to take the box to another location and try it there to see if it works.dont think its a server issue,you should be picking up more channels than that.what you should do now is put the box away for the night and put the feet up.do what i suggested above tomorrow,things might be a little clearer then.will check back later
