This assumes that you have a operating DSL internet, and the hub is connected to the receiver and internet. The receiver has the current iHub software (.rom) installed. The iHub has been working, but it is no longer. This is what you need to do.
First with all power off, connect the hub to the receiver and internet connection.
Power up in sequence, the internet (modem and router), then the receiver.
After the receiver boots, then with remote goto Menu - Installation - IP Config
The header should say "User options"
Setup should match this post;

NEW SV Dongle/Ihub set up

1. Load bin ( over current file if not virgin reciever)
2. Plug dongle
3. U will see prompt that dongle connecting (can take up to 30 secs)
4. Click menu-installation-ipconfig
5. Setting type DHCP
6. USE DNS YES
7.Domain name xxxxxxxxxxxxx
8. Server port 1920
9. Serial num (0000 is fine for now but should input the correct serial as not to have issue in future when I enable that security in a week or so) IF THIS DOESN'T WORK GO AHEAD AND PUT IN YOUR SERIAL NUMBER BE CARE THE LETTERS ARE VERY SMALL
10. Go to apply and click OK (don’t exit or it wont save you must click apply)
Now just simply enter them and Go to "Apply", click "OK".
Once above is done; Go to

"Setting Type" field and change to "Static" (this will allow you to access these fields);
Change the "Local IP" field to all zeros (000.00.0.0)
Change the "Local port" field to all zeros (0000)
Change the "Subnet" field to all zeros (000.000.000.0)
Change the "Gateway" field to all zeros (000.000.0.0)
Go to "Apply", click "OK

Now go to "Setting Type" field and change to "Static"
Go to "Apply", click "OK
Exit out.
The receiver should now be receiving and decoding the channels that are currently listed in the iHub list.
If not receiving, then; Power up in sequence, the internet (modem and router), then the receiver.
After the receiver boots, then with remote goto Menu - Installation - IP Config
The header should say "User options"
The fields previously with zeros should now have digits in them, if so, the hub/receiver is talking to the internet, if not check your internet equipment, and recheck the iHub setup.
