Re: How do you stop the device fro m going into standby mode
Hi @Harry_Billy and welcome to the forum. Unfortunately it will automatically go into standby mode after a period of inactivity (it's part of the eco system)
To stop the puck losing your network connection though go to settings > startup & standby and turn ON Networked Standby mode. Whilst in that menu it's also best to turn OFF overnight power saving..

You have to move the remote every so often

Re: How do you stop the device fro m going into standby mode
Is there a method of requesting an enhancement to the operating system so you can set the inactivity timer or turn it off? I'm fed up with pausing a program to come back and find the box has turned off and I have lost my place in the program I was watching.
