Spent nearly a week trying to get my box to upgrade properly- I sympathise how frustrating it can be. Then, all of a sudden it`s working every time. Did you upgrade with official manufacturer software or a patch? Maybe try a different software version or patch? Also, did you do the upgrade with the smartcard in the STB- I was under the impression this could mess things up and at worst fry the card.
