Viera Connect down??
Discussion
Wanted to watch Sherlock on the iPlayer last night so went to access it on my Panny G30 via the Viera Connect/Cast but all I got was all the app squares greyed out.
Must of spent an hour checking connections, the router, the broadband etc and tried asking the question on the net. Nothing on the Panasonic site but eventually stumbled across a thread on AV Forums where loads of people were complaining that they had lost all the network services on their Pannys for the last 5 or 6 days.
So if you have had the same problem, apparently it is intermittent, there you go, but a big black mark to Panasonic for not posting a bulletin and wasting an hour of my life.

Sorry can't advise about Viera Link but the Connect has been up and down for the past week. According to posters on the AV Forum it would appear that it goes down mainly during our peak time ie 1730 until 2330.
Shame as I only used it for the first time to watch the first Sherlock on iPlayer and I was amazed how good it looked especially as our broadband is only about 5.5 mbs.

That is pretty crap but as in all things tech it seems to be the way. I tried to use this Macbook, about 7 or more years old, to make a photo album using iPhoto but when I had spent ages putting it together and then hit send, it informed me that I needed to upgrade to the latest software for £50.
Same with the new iPhone, I can only use all it's features if I do 2 upgrades of the OS at around £50.
As said though, it's a bit s
tty of Panasonic not to provide support for a just 2 year old telly.
Have you got a recent Panny Blu-Ray player as they have Viera Connect too.
