    Default whitey 2 problem

    I have a whitey 2 that was working but has been out of the box for a few weeks and is now not working. Is it just a matter of waiting for it to update or do they have a problem being out for that long. Its in a strong 4653x

    you may need to send it an emk. I'd be leaving it in the box overnight on a horizontally polarised channel like halmark, fox etc and see how it goes. Also make sure you are using the latest firmware from the Strong website.

    Still not up after about 36 hours but I'm going away for a week tomorrow, hopefully it will be going then, thats if the kids don't unplug it and plug in their Wii again.

    What version firmware in your box? If not 117 have look on the Strong website.

    Try reloading the firmware again I have had the same trouble in the past when using the USB method but if it is done with a RS232 cable it stays good.
    It's hard to make a come back when I havn't been anywhere
    I finally got my head together, now my bodies falling apart.

    It was the older 117. I've put in the new one now and all is going well. Thanks again for the help
