HELP problem with moto dct3412 powercycling
I have a problem with my motorla dct 3412 box with shaw............ So here's the story, I purchased the pvr box a few years ago from a guy off craiglists. The PVR's at the time were really expensive and this guy was selling them used from the states on craigslist for a decent price, he said that it would work for sure, you just have to call in to shaw and give them some number for registration or something, anyways the box has been running perfect for the last few years. I believe a couple weeks ago, SHAW had a firmware update of some sort, since the beginning of September my box has not worked the same. Every time i turn on the box, it first has duI displayed on the box ( i forgot if that's normal or not) but after a few minutes, the box would completely shut off, not a power button turn off but a complete shut off like you pulled the plug. The display on the box would go blank for a few seconds and then the number 8888 would appear. Then the box would finally turn on. The guide and listings (basically everything) would all be reset showing no information and the time even appears 12:00. And then in a few minutes it would happen again, same thing. Box completely turns off starts up with 8888 and finally cable would be back for a few minutes. This just keeps on happening and happening, no stop to it! I have no clue why this is happening. I'm wondering is it because of the box model number dct3412 from the states and not a shaw pvr box is causing this problem? If someone could give me a hand to fix this that would be great! Thanks
