    Hi
    First try disconnecting the LNB cable from Spiderbox and retry, if same and you are not able to repatch with latest F/W you will need to use the recovery method.

    try the recovery tool and factory firmware etc (using a null modem cable from xp pc) , then do a factory reset from the menu

    then load the aug 2013 firmware if successful and factory reset it again

    then load july 2014 firmware and factory reset it AGAIN

    then load channel list etc and test it

    EDIT

    TYPO corrected, thanks to cannydo spotting it

    I think I'll ask you that question in about a fortnight m8 hehe you'll find the Spiderbox much superior to an F5. You've just been unlucky enough to have a faulty box once you have a fully working one you'll not look back.

    which is the best way to patch the box when the replacement arrives' with the last unit i just done a factory reset first' then installed the latest patch then done a factory reset once more' is this fine or do i need to install a earlier patch first before latest.many thanks

    As the post m8 Aug 2013 then factory reset check info on box make sure it reads Aug patch. Then the latest patch again reset and if you have a channel list install now there are channel list for spider in this forum.

    its 30/08/2013 , factory reset and check the date in the menu, then its the LATEST patch after that, which is currently 24/07/2014 , followed by another factory reset and again check the date in the menu once more

    it should go without saying that if a new patch comes out then its that one you install and not july 2014

    13e or 19e IK does not open 28.2e. If you check the channel lists you'll will see what suits your tatse.
