I noticed an issue late last year where one of my three 5040s would occasionaly not update its channel guide. It would run out and have an empty guide. I would force a connect and as soon as I did, it would reboot itself. Then, I forced a connect and it would get the guide data.
A few months later another unit started the same behavior. And now I'm noticing this on all three of my units. I was doing the DST fix tonight and noticed my main unit hadn't updated to 3/11 to check the patch. I hit 411-zones to check the last connect, sure enough it locks up and I have to hold the power button. After reboot, I check 411Z again and notice it hadn't connected since 2/25. Force connect updates the guide and things get back to normal.
This doesn't affect all of them at the same time.. thats the strange part, its obviously some bug that crops up at random on the systems.. but just more likely recently? Anyone else know what I'm talking about?
