My FVP-5000T has developed an annoying fault overnight; I can no longer access any players or catch-up services. I get a requester saying I must agree to the Privacy terms and conditions but when I go to that page (from Settings -> General), it is a blank page (there is no text there other than the page title), which means I can't agree to the T&Cs.
Humax support have advised I need to connect the box to my router using a cable rather than wifi. Before I do this (which will involve carting a spare TV downstairs and unplugging the Humax to move it to another room), has anyone had a similar issue? Will using ethernet resolve it?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Try clearing the cookies first but there may be something in that thread that helps.

Just had this happen to me. I was watching IPlayer, stopped it and made lunch, came back and the 5000T says the link between the router and the internet has gone and I should agree terms.
My internet is working fine both on my PC and tablet

I have tried this but to no effect - I will look at the link you've provided.

I've finally got round to connecting using ethernet (and the Connections page shows I have a wired connection), but the Privacy screen is still blank, meaning I can't agree to the T&Cs.
Does anyone have any other ideas?| Sat 4 Apr 2020 13:47:32 #5 | -

Try a reset to factory defaults (do not select the format option). This will not delete your recordings. It will delete your recording schedule.

Try a reset to factory defaults (do not select the format option)...As it happens, I have not had to do this. I came down this morning and the players/catch-up services are now available (and the Privacy page loads correctly). Not sure how it happened, but all is now working normally!

Patience is a virtue
The boxes are known to wake overnight to make housekeeping changes. If I had to guess this is likely to have been the fix.
