Think that's similar to what happens to me when I transfer from one HDMI connection to another, then try to go back to MAG250 and find it's gone (blue light on, but no channels) even if I didn't switch it off!
If I remember to switch it off before transferring to other TV choice it's fine to switch MAG250 back on again without having to reboot it when I return to MAG250!
I thought it was just me having to reboot by totally powering off & on again in this situation mate!

I had this problem with my MAG254 so I did a factory reset ! remember to keep a copy of your portal information
