I have an H24 that turns on by itself. We turn it off, go back a short time later, and it is back on. It is not the remote from our DVR. We checked to see if it was IR (it is not) and it does not affect the H24. Anyone have a clue as to what is happening?
I reset the receiver and it stayed off all day Monday, but it was back on again this morning. I also received a message that the receiver had not received any satellite data for 1 hour, error 920. I don't even know what autotune is so it most likely is not the problem. I don't understand how anything could be happening through the home network.
Think of AutoTune as a broken DVR. It will change to the channel at the right time, but won't record. One of the menu options will be the AutoTune ToDo List. See if there is anything there.
Are you sure it's not constantly rebooting itself or possibly being powered off/on from a wall switch? Have you actually been there when it turned itself on after you shut it off to see if it rebooted itself?
Is it possible there is another remote from another nearby receiver that someone is using that is turning it on?
TBlazer, I guess I'll vote for the last idea: a haunted house. No, it is not constantly rebooting itself. I interim between restarts varies greatly. Sometimes quickly, sometimes several hours. There is only one other remote (for the HR24) and I tried it several times and it has no effect on the H24--unless I'm in the same room, of course. The signal strength is in the high 90s, by the way.

12 Problem with the Network Tuner (possible problem inside the box).
Replace Receiver.
Error 12 is a problem with the tuner that downloads the guide data. The receiver is rebooting because of a lack of guide data.
The receiver needs to be replaced.
My bad, that's what I get for skimming through the posts. I thought it was an HR24.
