My Echostar is currently working in my lounge and I'm trying to watch it remotely in Sydney. It was fine until yesterday but now it seems to want to playback both live and recorded TV in slow motion so that the sound and vision ist otally out of sync.

In the reviews of the box some say that there is a slow motion control but I can't see this mentioned in the manual. So could any owner with a physical remote control help me by suggesting what button on the the remote control might switch off slow motion?

I have enough bandwidth and I'm playing using both auto and minimum playback quality and nothing seems to speed it up. Latest firmware and was fine until yesterday so I suspext I've hit a button on the RC and can't work out which one it was.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Does it have an option to reboot / restart the box by remote? If yes I would try that.

Also, can anyone restart your broadband or cable modem or by remote?

Automan.

There are menu options for that. Other users did report similar and an occasional report is a good thing!

Many thanks. Now it's refusing to talk to me - hopefully only due to the apalling Sydney broadband. I'm back in Singapore later next week and hope that I can reconect and try a reboot if it allows.!

Sorry reboot.
It could be you router

Thanks. It isn't the router as I've just made contact with the Echo Slingy and my IP cameras are still operating.
