 movement of boxes

Can I move the fios boxes from room to room if all the rooms have coax cable hookups. Thanks!!!

yea, should be no problem. the only issue may be if the other coax run has a splitter somewhere on it or a nick.

Yup, you can! We swapped in an HD STB earlier this week (had to call in to get it properly activated) and last night we took our original SD STB and hooked up in another room. Works like a charm

Keep in mind tho that Vz notes the location of the box (e.g. Living room, bedroom 1)at installation. If you ever need a reset by them or have them troubleshoot a box, it may not match what they have on their records. I'd just keep track of the Serial #s and verify when/if you have to call in troubles.

so someone other than a tech CAN call for a reset on a box, just like comcast? the guy told me not so...

Very true, although last time I called in they wanted the serial # off of the box to do a reset.

I had a problem with one of my 2 DVRs the other night. I tried switching it to another room and it still didn't work correctly. When I called VZ the technician asked where it had been switched from. I gave the changed location and he identified it based on the info I gave him. (BTW, corrected problem. Excellent service!)

You can do it yourself on the Internet.
