This is if you are getting service not available!

IàInternet
N->Network
P->Proxy
Emul->Emulator
1. I-on, I- always have to be ON to use IKS.. if your STB can access IKS server, I- automatically ON
2. N-on, you Nfusion has to be connect to your network while it on. otherwise the N->OFF. You need N->ON
3. P-ON/OFF it is a personal preference. By default P- is off, you can turn it to back on then input with a working proxy server IP and port number. Menu->Internet->Proxy…
4. Emul-OFF, if you want to use IKS, you have to turn emulator option off. When your stb use IKS you will see RED LIGHT blinking slowly on your stb front panel. To access emul, Menu->user settings->Emulator

When you see “service not available” on your TV screen.. first you have to look at that message close, it will tell you what is the problem… it is either cannot talk to your network, or IKS etc…
Here is a few step to solve this..
1. Make sure you stb still have ip from your router. Menu->Internet->Network Information->…
2. Make sure you can ping your STB’s IP from your computer.
3. Make sure you stb still can talk to IKS. Menu->Internet->S/w update->check update
4. If one of the step above failed..
a. turn off Router then turn it back on. wait for 30sec.
b. turn off STB then turn it back on.
5. check step 1 and 3 again. It they all passed, then it might be IKS server temporary down.. if one of them is failed then the issue is at your end.

one seems to work,the other will upgrade sw

Thats some very good info but after playing I can tell you it is not entirely accurate. If you have a working box and are watching TV you can remove the internet cable and your redlight will go out and your picture will freeze after about 15 sec however the message you will receive will be I=on N=on p=off E=off

You obviously cannot connect to your router since there is no cable but your box is saying the network and internet are working. I believe this is proof that I=On means you have an IP address on your box. Once it gets one the first time the box will keep it until you reboot it. Also I believe N=On just means Network Connection is set to ON in your STB. You can prove this by setting it to off and your picture will freeze and the message will say I=On N=OFF.

The rest of the info seems to be quite accurate and helpful for troubleshooting. Thanks for the useful post.

I have found a poor or wrong sat signal will cause this message also

That is also correct. You can receive that message when you signal is low but that you can easily check in the Installation channel menu.

Can anyone help me configure a wireless internet setup for NFusion? Please! I've had this NFusion since this summer and I used it for a very brief time on stand alone, because I can't seem to get this connected wirelessly. I live accross the street from a open internet source with security disabled. I bought a D-Link wireless G router (WBR-1310) but I've learned that I need to be hard wired to use it. I also bought a D-Link wireless gaming/bridge adapter (DWL-G820) and I can't seem to figure a way to run this reciever with wireless internet. Is there a way to make this work wirelessly? Do I have to have hard wired internet? I got hours of reading and countless hours of trying to get this to work without posting, not to mention near $400.00 invested too. Can the gaming adapter be used by itself if configured correctly? Better yet can i get the NFusion to work with a cable router since i get free cable too? Can i possibly use the gaming adapter directly from my internet source, without the router because I refuse to pay for internet? If there's anyone out there that can help I'de greatly appreciate the help, preferrably with step-by-step instructions so I can print them. I'm truely sorry for the barrage of questions but I feel really stuck, thanking you in advance, FTA-ALLA!, if ya hear me. PEACE.



PS.
IF It's not possible to set up this way, I'll consider trading this reciever for one that works on stand alone. Thanks.

I'm a newbee. Not yet hooked up to internet. Using stand alone bins. I keep getting this message: I-off/ N-on/ P-off/ Emul-on/ IKS disconnected.
What do I need to do to get this working until I get box connected to internet? I have down loaded the latest bin and have received a "good" message. Please help.
Thanks,
Rex

Please post a new question in the nfusion help section , people who can help will be able to find your post.However to my knowledge there is not a stand alone working bin for the nfusion.I am afraid that you will need to get it connected and use the IKS for anything other than the NASA channel. Sorry

my nfusion reads service not available on bv ch some ch not working yet.still getting 300 ch on a hd box good work

[altazink]

the way to get this working would be to
1- have a wireless reciever card in your computer to recieve the wireless signal,
2-then on your computer run the home network wizard and choose the option "this computer connects directly to the internet, other computers connect though this one to the internet"
3 - connect your STB though a wired lan cable into your computer lan port (may need crossover lan cable)
4 - disable the firewall on your home networking wired lan but keep it on on your wireless
5 - this should allow your stb to connect to use the IKS

Thanks. I currently have SUNS disconnected as well. Not sure what that is? Also, when turning on I see "checking for security device and it responds with Failure-No Device. Any help appreciated

[lionking123]

Sorry, very new to this. Along with i-on/n-on/p-off/emul-off, I also receive /SUNS disconnected.
When I turn the unit on I see "please wait, checking security device and the...Failure- no device. I've had the unit for about 8 months will little difficulty. Not sure whats happening,

Thanks

Let me understand this, the gentleman wants to use FTA to get free Sat service which would cost him hundreds of dolllars a month, he has made a minor investment in working satelite STB's, get free codes to make them work, but he doesn 't wan't to pay for an interenet connection ... sounds like an issue for Obama! Perhaps when the free stimulus checks come in Obama could offer free internt service to all :-) Somtimes people just don't get it!
