V5.0.937 has a Bug

After upgrading on several U5 units the Search Function under VOD "Search by Actor" no longer works. Box reboots every time you enter data in the Search field after selecting Search by Actor. Then trying to get back into Live TV unit goes to Loading Channel List again and stalls sometimes.This is a new issue and affects all U5 units.

The prior App software worked fine on the same search.

Thanks for reporting this

This is an App issue with V5.0.937, not specifically U5s

We will fix this in our next update soon

Soft or hard reset?

Quite possible a compatibility issue with the wireless router/access point.  Not the first time I have seen that.

BUT, the first thing to try is to try to disable the Band Steering option on a router/access point.  This option typically combines both the 2.4 and 5Ghz bands to a single SSID.  This does cause issues on many devices.   Disabling band steering, you essentially split the 2.4 and 5Ghz bands to have thier own separate SSID, and that way you can connect to a specific band only.  5Ghz give you a faster speed, but shorter distance coverage.  2.4Ghz is typically slower, but can be better for longer distances.  Many routers call it band steering, but some routers may call it something different.  Often it is where you define the SSID names, there is an option and when enabled/disabled it provides option to provide separate SSIDs for the 2 bands.

Leaving the router to decide which band to connect devices to, does not play well with some devices.

On my modem it was just a matter of setting up a guest network

Once I set it up I had both bands

[Matthew Mullenix]

Both and also setup up another network and still disconnects

This thread is for Buzz 5 app

Please post this in the X5 section, as the app update would not affect Wifi

My buzz TV didn't update last night and ever since certain keys on the remote are no longer working. These are ones such as Channel up and channel down or hitting the digits. Other Keys work perfect. I have reset the box and remove batteries from the remote without change. Any suggestions?

Even if it was, the device would crawl after that.  It is an older device, limited to BuzzTV 2, but still useable.

Hey, maybe time to buy a new buzz box.  Buzz has a nice sale going on for Black Friday.. 15% off boxes, and effectively 25% if you buy 2 boxes, so get a friend and get 2   My buddy just ordered 2 Classics, and came to just over CDN$140 tax and shipping included.  That is an awesome price for those boxes.
