With the amount of money that I've paid into the VM coffers over the past 20 odd years or so, granted some of those years were with Telewest, but still, you'd think they would throw in the odd freebie to help out a long term loyal customer!

l quite agree so perhaps you should phone up retentions and barter as you certainly will get nothing any other way.

Re: Virgin Media V6 - Powered by TiVo(new STB)
A network error is preventing some new V6 TiVo boxes from downloading software at the moment I've got one working and the other is still failing

Yes we noticed there was a problem early this morning and the service status confirmed it.

I'm the same. If I reboot both V6 boxes the first to reboot will connect to the VM network, the second fails. Not always the same failure code.

Re: Virgin Media V6 - Powered by TiVo(new STB)
Random question for you...
How's your remote control battery levels holding out. I stumbled across this info whilst going through the System Info settings and mine is sitting at 80%, only had the V6 for 7 weeks so it looks like I'll be changing the batteries every 8 months or so!
I only changed the batteries once in 4 years on the old TiVo and even that turned out to be unnecessary as the remote was on its way out not the batteries.
Hardly a bank breaker but interesting fact I thought
Now... Where did I put my anorak?!?

Just to add this error is preventing engineers from installing some boxes meaning they are leaving properties with the job incomplete which has happened with me so it's just a case of keep retrying and hope it connects

Re: Virgin Media V6 - Powered by TiVo(new STB)
Finally got the 2nd box connected
How do I get the new TiVo remote to control the volume?
