I assume the 901 message is when you try and use iPlayer?
Which unit do you have? I will assume it is a 2nd Generation freesat unit HDR-1xx0S (the digits represented by xx vary).
When the unit starts it checks that it can acquire an ip address from your router, this confirms it can access your LAN.
Next it tries to access the freesat server, probably by using a command that verifies something exists, if so it enables showcase and on-demand icons.
Actually connecting to these services then requires a prompt reply from these servers.
Known problems include routers which, when first connected, display a connection confirmation which has a OK button to dismiss it. Normally the router has a option to turn this off.
If your unit is the HDR-1100S which has WiFi check the routers connected devices to ensure it is not connecting by WiFi instead of by cable.
