V6 Connection issue.

jdoc
Tuning in

I have had V6 box for 6 months. For last 2 weeks it has stopped connecting to VM services so I cannot get TV guide or record. Restarting has not resolved the issue. All other devices are connected to internet and working fine. Network settings says network cable unplugged, but I use WiFi and it is not showing any available networks. This box is too far from router to use cable...any thoughts appreciated!

Thanks for confirming - there was some confusion with other replies to this thread so it's useful to confirm your problem is "in-hand".

The WiFi pods/boosters may well improve your wireless signal, but if your V6 isn't seeing any WiFi networks (including a hotspot presumbly inches away) then it's not an issue of signal quality, I agree.

Thanks to all for your thoughts on this. Had a visit from VM engineer this week and issue is resolved. As I suspected it was a box problem rather than a WiFi one. As soon as he put a new box there it picked up WiFi signals so I exchanged boxes and all seems to be working fine fingers crossed!
