Re: TW going "crazy" tonight?

"Inside sources tell me with regard to the slow searches that a Speed Boost fix is coming. And, OMG do the boxes need it!"

A patch was loaded on the ODN boxes in Buffalo this week. It did indeed take care of the the slow search issue.

Thanks, now I see where it says 5.2.0_9. I don't recall my boxes rebooting this week, but obviously they must have. It sucks that the Select+Down Arrow diagnostic screens are gone now. It took me a while to find the firmware version info in the other set of diag screens.

This works in any box?

"This works in any box?"

I think Steve has the same Cisco box as I do here at home and my reply was to him.
I have not tested on other makes in the WNY market.

I tried it with the samsung box and it works but the diagnostics screens, not unless I miss it, did not show what ODN version is running. Does it? Thanks.

Yup, Select + Up works, prior to ODN 5 the only way you could access those screens IIRC, was pressing Vol+ and Info on the front of the box. But anyhow, like I posted, Select + Down no longer works ever since the 5.2. It sucks, that was an easy way to check versions, last boot time, Tune Failures and what I liked doing, accessing the hard drive info and seeing the exact usage and calculating the average bitrate for recorded content on the DVR. I know most, if not all of that information can be accessed with the other menus, but the Select + Down screens were better laid out, I think.

Page 10/39 on the MFR Diags shows the versions here on my Cisco.

No MFR Diags menu in the samsung. There is a diagnostics item in the extended diagnostic menu but it's asking for a password. Do you know what's the password?

I dont, but even if I did I would not post passwords on a public site! I like my job.

No big deal, just thought it's openly available to us.
