thanks for your reply.
Sorry, the tech support i refer to is the retailer I bought the box from, they loaded all the apps and a live tv stream as well and have helped me troubleshooting. They have done the factor reset and reloaded my apps etc each time this has happened. They are the ones who spoke with Buzztv.
Waiting is not the issue. After losing the connection, I have left the box plugged in all night and I get the same "limited connection" message on my box the next morning. I am using Starlink as my internet provider and their router does not allow me to change any settings. We have tried forgetting the network, and resetting password etc without any change. As i said in my first posting, i did not have any issues for the first 6-7 months but as recently as last week, the moment i unplugg the box, i can't reconnect.
