Keep having to unplug network

[th3Bird]

Why do I have to keep unplugging my network cable from my X5? I have to unplug it and then plug it back in for it to work again. Its getting really annoying.

Have you tried rebooting your router ?   Quite possible that it is the DHCP server on your router that is acting up and not issuing an IP.  Have seen that a few times, especially with older Dlink routers.  By unplugging and re-plugging it in, it forces it to make another request.  If you unplug the power from the box and plug it back in, does it also fix the problem ?

Do you have your box set for suspend or shutdown ?

From home screen, go to settings (gear icon on top), then select BuzzTV Utilities, and then Power Options.  The setting you want to check is "Power Off Mode".  Is it set to suspend or shutdown ?   If you keep going into suspend, eventually things can get messed up.  Do yourself a favor and change that to shutdown.  Sure it takes an extra 30 seconds to power up the box every time, but this way you will always have a clean boot.   It's like Microsoft Windows.  If you keep putting your machine to sleep mode all the time, eventually it will start doing strange things and you will be forced to reboot anyhow
