Verizon FiOS TV
Awesome, today I finally got my Verizon FiOS TV. So now I can drop my TimeWarner Cable TV service.
Verizon will be installing FiOS TV service. My video installation includes:
High Definition 6200 (SHE)
DVR 6416 PROV (SHE)
Cable Card – HDNO 08
BROADBAND HOME ROUTER CONSUMER
Digital Video
Home Media DVR – High Def
TVP Polonia (Polish)
High Definition Content
Video on Demand Service
Extreme HD
So after running brand new Fiber to my house now I am watching TV. I did not call Time Warner cable to cancel it yet, but will do it later on tonight or tomorrow.
After watching my new TV for few minutes already I did notice that I cannot use my Cable Card with my DVR as Sales Rep told me that I would be able to watch recordings on all my TV’s, so I will have to call and ask for a different box. Guess sales people need to be trained a bit more on this. Those internal cable or FiOS cards will never work well as they are not bi-directional so they can only receive signal one way and cannot communicate back. Also the remote control that I got does not control that card, it switches to cable option and sends signal but there is no cable box so I cannot control my DVR and access recordings. Oh well, will just need to get stand alone box that will have to find location where to put it on.
