Philsoft-
I haven’t seen anything in the replies from Roku to suggest that they agree with you at all.
They made no reference to my configuration as being suspicious, and, to date, have offered nothing to suggest a source of the problem…
I appreciate any suggestions you can offer, but I am completely comfortable with the way my network is working otherwise for the 41 devices which are connected to it.
I’m not sure what your agenda is here, but I find your comments condescending and dismissive, and especially dislike your sentences which begin with “if you are telling the truth” or “are you STILL not providing Roku with crash results”. The combination of your comments suggests, in total, that you have an utter lack of technical insight into hardware design, software design, and how such systems are developed. The reality of the situation technically is that I have a network that had worked properly, including Tablo and all the Roku units until firmware was upgraded, at which point it failed and continues to fail on a daily basis. Do I think it is suddenly an issue of RF interference, suddenly units that need to be refrigerated, suddenly a network cable that needs to be replaced?
The reality is that this system of Tablo and Roku suddenly failed on the day when the firmware upgrades took place, no amount of RF shielding, refrigeration, voodoo, or any other solutions will correct a bug that was created in this firmware upgrade either by Roku or Tablo, and I’m still not sure which.
Could I replace the ethernet cable between my router and my modem? Yes, I could, although my optical network terminal for FIOS is 65 feet away from my router and requires a substantial amount of work to run a new cable. For the last four years I’ve had absolutely no reason to suspect anything wrong with this cable nor do I have any reason whatsoever to suspect something wrong with it now. For items that I do have possible suspicions, such as the router I am going so far is to try three different models
To save myself both further time and further aggravation, I will not be responding to any of your future replies, and I thank you for those attempts you have made to offer constructive suggestions.
