    Tuner losing connection every night

    I have the Xtrend 8500 set to go into deep standby from midnight to 6.00am.
    Every morning Tuner A shows red. A reboot reconnects so it's not a major problem but are there any suggestions to stop this happening?

    By Red, I assume you mean its in use?
    If so I guess someone is playing with your receiver, so have you opened up your systems to outside users?

    As far as I know nobody else has access.
    The red tuner is receiving no signal until I reboot.

    Take your ethernet cable out and then try a channel. If this cures it you have opened your ports on your router/hub.

    OK.
    I'll report back. The problem only happens overnight so I won't know if the problem is fixed until tomorrow.

    Didn't you have problems getting more than 1 tuner working a while back?

    Yes, it was fixed when I got the two satellite feeds connected to the box. I hadn't realised that only one feed was live.

    Unplugged wifi last night and the problem returned. Tuner A was red in the display, was receiving no signal. A reboot fixed it.
    It's not a major problem but it would be better if it didn't happen.

    Sounds like something is accessing your Tuner A. As Abu said, what do you have scheduled? ABM? CrossEPG?
