    Lightening Damage

    My Di4000n box was recently damaged during a thunder storm. It now just displays nit. I wondering if any one has had the same problem and what any posible fix would be.

    glad nothing like that happened to me

    the sollution is most likely to get a new box

    and next time unplug the feed from the box in order not to damage it!!!!!!!

    why couldnt the school electricity generator blow up like it did some 4 years ago??????????

    school was off for around 3 weeks that time

    could have had summer hols a week earlier

    no worries mate - nit is also displayed when the box has an incorrect net id set. seems likely your netid has been lost reset it. also access the engmenu to ensure everything is as it should be. lightning is unlikely to have caused any damage to your box through the cable system. tbh if your box was lightning damaged you wouldn't have anything displayed in the screen - just coincidence.

    I have checked all the settings in the engineers menu and all are as they were. I thinking maybe one of the tuners is damaged. Does anyone if the box displays nit when the tuners are damaged?
