Zuzu, do you have your cable box plugged into a UPS (uninterrupted power supply)?
We had the Dish people replace our box 3 times before we realized that it might have been the power fluctuations from lightning storms and other electric issues. Bought a UPS to keep the power surges away and haven't had an issue with it for 3 years now. The UPS was expensive but it sure beat waiting for a technician and having to miss some of the very few shows we actually enjoy on TV nowadays.
