Not got problems here but my advice would be stick with it. I am sure freesat will have it fixed it soon one way or another.

I assume both of you can access IPlayer via channel 901 and you have tried freesats advice? (link at the foot of #651)

I can and have.

How do I know it's not just a faulty machine?

Have you got a smart phone or tablet? Have you tried installing the Freesat App and see if any of the players will launch via that!

Though that wouldn't rule out a faulty machine.

@Inge Jones, you could ring Humax and see if they'll swap the box. Of course it does mean losing your recordings.

In that case:
1. Has your unit acquired a IP address (System Info - Network).
If not check DHCP is enabled on your router and the connection to the router is good. (Led lit on router and unit's network port).
connectivity.
2. If it has an IP, can you ping it from a PC
This will show LAN connectivity, but not WAN connectivity.

To those still having problems...

Believe there is a software release imminent that might help.

Well I've got the 2.02.07 update (bit odd though as update date says 4th November, not 19th).

I can get to On Demand then launch iPlayer fine. Try to start watching a programme and screen just goes black and nothing happens. Tried several programmes. Same on ITV player except I get "a problem has occurred with the video service (50070)"

So it's progress, but not quite working yet
