Yip, your box sounds unwell and probably needs replacing - quickest way is to call TV Faults (150 from VM, or 0345 4541111) or you can wait here for staff to pickup which may take a couple of days.

If you have VM broadband, then you might want to consider swapping to a V6. Runs the same software but on a much newer box that's far more capable. There's ways and means of going about this, but something to drop in.
