hi cannydo

isn't there a recovery soft for the 6000 available yet? mostly via the serial RS232 nullmodem cable.

just a suggestion my friend, looking around came across this.

Could be your power adapter. When the equipment is starved of the current it needs, they behave like this. Although this box is a low current device still there may be a possibility your power adapter developed a fault. Try another 12v dc power adapter if you have lying around in the house. This is a diagnostic procedure to eliminate the possibilities step by step.

I hope someone from the spiderbox team would be able to help you here, there is no fix tools available as of today for SB6000

if you fix cannydo,
keep us informed.
thanks.

Hi guys
Thanks for the ideas but I found the problem I did a Hyperlink connection to reboot it and it kicked in briefly with this message "Antenna Overload." Turned out it was a damaged cable I had installed from bedroom to livingroom but it shows the box turned itself into standby and would not reboot till problem was fixed cheers again boys for the ideas.
