Hi cdvm
Any box that keeps rebooting needs changing as it's on the way out.
The tivo's are now obsolete and faulty tivo's will be replaced free of charge for a V6 box (which also runs the tivo software system that you are used to) providing you also have broadband with VM (which you do as you have previous posts about problems with your hub3)
Have you used the /check-services/i function? You can also a run a test on your equipment from there and it might order a replacement box for you, or connect you to tech support .
You either need to contact tech support (option 2) when calling 150 from a VM landline or 0345 454 1111 from any other phone - after selecting option 2 ignore all the options and don't press any buttons then you should be placed into a queue and an agent should pick up the phone and book the tech for you to exchange the box. (You might be offered a switch to a 360 box, they are the same as the V6 box but run on a different software system (horizon) which lacks some of the functions of the tivo/V6 boxes which are copyright to tivo.
Or wait a day or two and a member of the Forum Team should pick this up for you and arrange a tech visit.
