Hmmm, that's exactly what I did too. I have to say that 95% of time I
get into V21 straight away from my PC, but not once out of 20
attempts or more from the Bush STB. Could there be a difference
between V21 & free24-7? I've double checked all entries, will do this
again & I'll also get in touch with V21 support.
Thanks for your input though. Will let you know progress.
Nick
