Hi guys, I'm looking for a bit of help with a libertyview f5 which belongs to a mate, we presume his g/f purchased it with a pre paid gift which has either expired or done a bunk. We have added a new N line last night, no channels would open, so I brought it home to have a look at. I hooked it up and got some documentary channels opening, that was it. Next I tried the line in another box, it all works correctly so no issue there. Wondering if it was a firmware or channel list issue as it has never been touched I downloaded latest firmware and channel list files. The F5 would not recognize the first (fat32) usb stick, so more googling I tried another usb which now worked, so files ready on the stick but the F5 will not see the firmware file so I can't update it, it will see the channel list however this fails each time tried. I have since deleted the channel list that was on the box to start with so have had to do a full scan so everything is in a complete mix up with still not much opening.
Any ideas guys, my gut feeling is its bin fodder, is it worth a punt buying another f5 as they only appear to be about £40 on ebay I was gonna suggest he look for a used spiderbox as mine appears a lot more user friendly.
Cheers
