If this was my problem I wouldn't even be looking at the Humax as being the issue.
As I said in the previous post #19, after the last network lock up the powering off/on of everything at position 4) made the whole network work immediately.
I am concentrating on the switch at postion 4) and everything connected to it. The following are connected to this switch (several weeks ago I changed the Amazon Fire box to use wifi and not a wired connection):
Humax HDR-1000S
Samsung blu-ray player
Panasonic TV
This afternoon I disconnected the blu-ray player and the TV leaving only the Humax box connected to the switch.
I will monitor my network following these changes.
Paul, you sound like you are the sort of person like me that has a few old routers around.
At the last count I had 6, 5x various Netgear routers and 1x BT Home Hub3.
I suggest you connect the Humax to one with a DHCP server enabled and try it unconnected to the internet to see if it has any problems apart from no on-demand.
I will try this after I monitor the latest changes that I have made to my network setup.
One question I missed was does any of the kit, especially the switches, have power saving features?
They are all dumb Netgear switches with no power saving features.
