Jackellis20 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Over the past few days I have started having problems with my XRS4500. It has started to randomly reset when watching TV. There seems to be no reason for it to reset, it has started happening once every couple of hours etc. any ideas? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 reset or reboot? if reboot make sure your power outlet is not loose and check for polarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbs. Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 So your box loses all your info and you have to re-enter all your info? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackellis20 Posted May 9, 2023 Author Share Posted May 9, 2023 Sorry no it reboots not resets, my bad. It’s never really done it before but now it seems to happen I’d say at least once or twice a night. The box is never under any particular load just general channel switching etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 try a different outlet and if on extension cord then try with different extension to eliminate things to see what causing the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 or if you want to reset your box maybe that can help too but you will loose all the server...etc settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emporium Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I did have a friend who had similar issues, and it turned out it was his power supply. It worked fine for the most part, but I guess over time it could not deliver enough current. Gave him a spare 5V, 2A power supply I had lying around and it never happened again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackellis20 Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 Just to provide an update. It does seem to be a faulty plug/wire which affects the box. Thanks for the suggestions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
