[Cable TV] Digital Cable Box


I just got my account transferred to my new location and got a Digital Cable Box (Explorer 3100).
Every time I turn it on it forgets the last channel I watched and starts at channel 15.
Is this by design or am I missing a setting somewhere?
It is quite annoying.

It's probably a menu setting...

The 3100 I have at home lets you set the startup channel to either something specific or the last channel watched.

It's listed in my menu under "Viewer: Power-on".

It's on mine here as well.

Press menu 2x, then scroll down to viewer: power-on, then select last channel.

However, I have heard that there are systems that have their boxes automatically come on to a certain channel, and the option to change it is disabled.

Unfortunetly I do not have "Viewer: Power-on".
I only have "Viewer: Favorites"

I cannot even block the channel because I do not have a pin.

Sounds like it's disabled for you.

Makes it nice if you were trying to hide that you were watching porn. Just turn it off, back on and you can say, "I was watching channel 15, honey, I swear!" :D

My box defaults to 15 too, which is the Adelpha/TWC channel, unless they have a bulletin then it defaults to the message channel.
