Good evening
I just had the same problem this morning. Two weeks after working normally, the Freebox Server started displaying the time incorrectly: the numbers were only partially visible, then it began to pixelate until the entire display turned yellow (instead of the time, the usual color took over the entire display). I couldn't restart the Freebox using the front menu since the screen wouldn't show anything but the yellow color. I had to unplug it to plug it back in. But then - bad surprise! - the Freebox wouldn't turn on: I could hear it humming and then stopping while I could clearly see the LEDs at the back. I unplugged it again and plugged it back in with no success. I took the CPL block from the Player (this time) to change it just in case. Same result regardless of the Freeplug. I then thought my Freebox had broken down.
Since it was Sunday, I figured I would call on Monday to ask for a replacement. But tonight, miracle: after having left it all day, I just tried again and it works without me understanding why.
Anyway, I'm leaving this testimony because everything is back to normal after it wouldn't turn on at all. I spent the entire day without Internet, and it's not fun when it happens on a Sunday. I can only imagine what a hassle it would be if it ever broke down for good. Has anyone ever exchanged their Freebox Server, and how long did they have to wait for delivery?

I indeed had the same problem as all of you.
The Freebox Revolution and 5 months later, here it finally is, but unpleasant surprise when I plugged in the modem........nothing....not a single little number appears, however the LEDs at the back are lit.
So I immediately called Free and they are making an exchange (of the Free server only), UPS is coming back to the house to exchange the latter.
You should expect 2 to 5 days.
