This ain't a hi-tech solution but have you tried disconnecting it from the mains supply for 30 mins? It fixed several probs with my Sky+ box.

done that and the box works for a few times and then freezes
my hope was that someone up here can fix the box if not it means buying a replacement. it may be than it is not economical to fix but thought i would try before I replace it

You could try Alacam in Thurso for repair.

you say it stops responding to the remote, do any of the front panel buttons still work though?

hi many thanks for the reply our signal strength is good however we have now taken it to Alacam where he thinks the internal power supply may not be working properly
hopefully they will rectify the prob

Many thanks to all how have replied to my querie.
