Q: Unable to restore Apple TV 2 (3rd)

Hello

 

I have an Apple TV 2 (3rd).

 

It does not see or connect to any WIFI connections.

The moment I put in a LAN cable I get a black screen and nothing hapens, no matter how long I wait.

 

Restoring is not possible because it can't download the firmware.

 

I connected it to my Macbook Air, iTunes does see the Apple TV but says unable to connect.

 

At the moment I am stuck. Before starting this discussion I did google a lot but I am unable to find a solution.

 

I hope someone can help me out.

 

Cheers

AppleTV 2, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), iTunes 11.0
