Same started for me a couple of days ago. When lucky, one cold boot of modem/router/dvr eventually [minimum 30 minutes, but often more] completes the ~5 minute daily update. Last 2 days i haven't been lucky needing AT LEAST 5 iterations [well, today 5 and counting]
Cox has offered ZERO solution that will allow retention of recorded shows [disc ~90% full]
I can get new box, but lose recordings.
I can go to cloud based, but lose recordings.
retaining box that only sometimes behaves in order to eventually seen what has been recorded - while obtaining new one for future recordings. That isn't done.
Copying contents of diseased box to new box - that isn't done.
"Is there anything else we can help you with?"
Seriously? You have been no help.
Does ANYONE know of a workaround that allows recovery of recordings before trading in for a new unit??
