Three times I have tried to alter my Internet connection from Ethernet to WiFi with WEP encryption, on all occasions has resulted in the system being corrupted, and hanging in the loading stage requiring a firmware upgrade from the USB stick because the LAN/Internet communication was not possible.

This is the procedure I used to return the Receiver to normal:

Have the TV connected via the HDMI or SCART cable.

Power UP the Receiver with the USB stick (loaded with the latest Patch) Inserted.

From the Upgrade menu, choose: 4. Format application area. - This action removes the corrupt software.

When the message "Formatting: done" is on the screen, Press the EXIT key to return to menu.

choose 1.USB - The receiver will then search for a valid patch.

When found will give details of Your Version on the Receiver, and the Patch version.
Also asks if you want to update, - press OK.

The patch file is then extracted, with details of the progress shown on the TV screen.
Also there is also a warning: DO NOT POWER OFF.

After the patch is loaded, the Receiver will reboot itself, returning to the Upgrade menu.

Choose 5. Boot without update.

When the Receiver is rebooted, remove the USB stick.

You can now Setup the receiver again from scratch.

After Re-Establishing The Internet Connection within the Setup menu, also check in the Network Service screen, that the FTP Server and the Telnet Server are both be enabled.

With the FTP Server disabled, I could not use my FileZilla utility.
