Navi-x and Home videos and Favorite websites DISAPPEAR ?!??!!!

Make sure you are using the full repo address and not tinyurl.com/navixforboxee... DNS issues have been known to cause problems at times accessing Navi-X.

I will remove the navi-x repository and re-install it, however, like I said due to other problems I doubt the issue is because of Navi-X.

We have two URLs for Navi-x repository, which one is more stable iRoN? tinyurl or google??

Any luck with setting a static IP address for your Boxee Box in Settings>>Network>>Network and using Google DNS: 8.8.4.4?

Google. Also, take darcilicious's direction as well. Thanks.

No darcilious I haven't set a static IP as every-time I restart my router I get different IPs for devices connected to the router. So, if I change the dynamic to static my boxee will not connect to internet. Or If I'm thinking wrong please let me know.

FYI..
I had 3 Navi-X repo entries.
I deleted them all and just included the googlecode one (don't remember the exact URL) and Navi-X is back again.

Happening here as well.
I'm in my apps a few time a day to hit up Revision3 and Navi-X has only appeared in my list once in the past week or so.

I have a few repository entries. I'll clean them up tonight to see if that makes a difference.

I have a mix of static and dynamically assigned devices on my network. No issues with over 20 devices.

Not one person who has followed the advice of assigning a static IP address to their Box and using Google DNS has come back and reported problems after having done so.

At worst, you switch it back to dynamic if it doesn't work -- what have you got to lose?

Ill try it sure, could you tell me how to do it step by step pls? if you wouldnt mind. thx

Sure, here's what I would do:

On the Boxee Box, go to Settings>>Network>>Network and write down all the values.

Once you have the settings, switch to Manual and then enter all the same settings except for DNS, enter 8.8.4.4

Save and you should be good to go.
