Hi, every time i try to play something the box reboots. Do you think it is a firmware problem. My box is an F5

 

[crmorris2]

dump channel list and upgrade firmware from here SkyBox | SkyBox

Nice one, but my box is stuck on ******* loop now once it get L097

Have you downloaded the correct firmware? you should leave it running for at least 10 minutes and should be fine. If not, cut the end off your coax and put your F connector on again properly, could be that. Let me know which solves it.

i'm letting it continuously loop now. do i need the coax connected? I downloaded the firmware direct from your link

Disconnect the satellite cable from the box, cut the end off and follow this guide to reconnect the F type connector. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNqJcmslwyM

Did you flash your box using USB or RS232 null modem cable?

See this link. http://www.techkings.org/skybox-f3-...lash-using-serial-rs232-null-modem-cable.html. If your box is a clone then download the firmware from the site mention in the link, if still no joy then a recovery with null cable is on the cards
