I just got my new jynxbox V2.

I loaded the Factory 8 and 217 bins, loaded sat info and scanned sats.
It was pretty simple to do.
I replaced a Limesat Ultra with this jynxbox.

I also have had a jynxbox V1 for a couple of months.
I am running the 207 bin on it.
I was concerned with the freezing and the lock up of the V1.
However I thought that the V2 with the new tuner would be better.
It is not.

The new jynxbox V2 has frozen 6 or 7 times an hour during the day today and it has locked up 4 times.

When it locks up it does not respond to any commands from the remote or using the buttons on the front of the unit.
I have to turn the unit off and on using the rear switch in order to reset it.

I have exactly the same problem with the jybxbox V1.

I know it is not my servers as I put the Limesat back on line two hours ago and there has been absolutely no freezing or lock ups.
I also borrowed an Ultra from a friend and put it on line replacing the V1 and ran both Ultras at the same time.
They have been rock solid.

On the new jynxbox V2 I am running Sat Lobo, NFPS and a PS.

On the old jynxbox V1 I am running Beaver, NFPS and the PS.

I have a 24" Digiwave quad Elliptical dish with new Fortec LNB's, new Digiwave weatherproof 4x1 switches and am aimed at 91, 110 and 119.
The units are hooked into a Cisco Lynksys 4200 router which is 3 monthsld and is hooked into a high speed DSL line.
The V1 is hard wired directly to the router.
The V2 is hooked into the router using DLink power adapters.

Is anyone else having the same issue?

Does anyone have any suggestions?

You don't load the factory file on a new box. It comes pre loaded.
Factory reset your unit and upgrade your file to 217.
Turn off time shift and see how that goes.

Also use on PS at a time, if you have more that one turned on this might cause the problem. I've had V1+Jb200B and now V2+Jb200
and they never looked up on me not even once. I hope this is not a grounding issue. As far as picture quality, speed, etc they are identical. I changed mine because I've had it for a few days then V2 came out so I thought I would swap it for the new one.
