assume. how are you naming the channel numbers are they unique to whatever
else you have named. maybe try deleting the new things you added and start
over. in the scan it asks you for channel numbers or accept suggested. use
unique channel numbers and then add xmltvids and get some listings data to
the channels and it should tune. if not maybe some kind of firewall issue
on the network tuner.

They are the same as my other FTA tuner (PCI) I did mythfilldatabase after
adding the card, etc. Not home right now, but I will try unique
numbers/names later on. Firewall may be an issue, so I went in and
dedicated port 5000 for hdhr, I'll look into the firewall deeper later too.

channels; that should tell you if it is firewall issue. i would not
dedicate any ports it should just work;. try to add a unique channel number
and get guide data into just one and test it.
