BT TV Pro box issues

I’ve had a BT TV ‘Pro’ box for a few months now, and it doesn’t seem entirely reliable.

I have the following problems with it. I can see many other reports of these issues on this forum, so I wondered which of these is supposedly already fixed by software?

Sometimes its not possible to control the box from the remote. Restarting the ‘Pro’ box fixes it.
After the box has been set to a channel for a while it shows small jumps in the video - it’s easiest to see this on panning shots where the motion is not smooth. Changing to another channel and then back to the original channel fixes it for a while, but the problem does come back.
Drop-outs in TV signal: it shows around 94% signal strength and normally 100% signal quality, but signal quality sometimes drops momentarily to 0% with picture dropouts. The same aerial connected to my Sony TV does not show the same dropouts.
After the box has been on for a few days, it loses contact with the router. This happens with both ethernet and wi-fi. Only way to fix it is to restart the ‘Pro’ box. It’s a BT router so would be nice to think they should work well together?

Software version is 4.1.6 0.6.242 which I believe is the latest.

So which of the above issues should already be fixed?

Thanks
