Need to move router and TV box and upgrade

Unicornlala

I would like to move my router and tv box from upstairs to downstairs. Can someone arrange this please?

I think it’s a V6 box, it’s about 6 years old and so is the router, can it be upgraded at the same time?
Thanks

There isn't an upgrade available from the V6, the only other TV box available at the moment is the 360 box, which is missing a lot of features compared to the V6.

Some of the missing features are as follows; Wishlists (where you can set the box to record programs on certain subjects or featuring certain people), undelete, series link+, series link manager, suggestions, setting of series links for programs not in the current TV guide, ethernet control, keyboard support via USB, switching between tuners with constant buffering, skip-back on fast-forward, quickplay, default recording options, cancelling individual recordings from a series link, multi-channel series links, radio channels allowing recording of radio, separation of recordings between boxes, watching recordings when internet is not available and probably a few others I've forgotten.

Arguably there is no upgrade for the V6. The only change available for it, is a migration to TV360 which is a completely different platform and OS - in much the same way as Android is different to Apple.

Do you have any problems with your V6? Do you specifically want to convert to TV360? Or are you just wanting the latest & greatest?

OK thanks that’s good to know 

I just thought I would ask, if someone has to come out to move the connection to another room it would have been an ideal time but it looks like there’s isn’t an upgrade anyway so not needed.
