Re: Need Advice on CB FiOptics

On the fioptics internet, I am very happy. I have had good speeds with FTTN connection.

On fioptics TV, I am not happy. I used a HTPC (running XBMC). Until a week ago the service was ok. CB rolled out a software/firmware update to the boxes and now I get no signal to my PC (I suspect they enabled the copy never flag). The STB guide is extremely slow and locks up frequently. The remote control response is iffy with new batteries. Even attempting to change the channel by enter the channel number is hit and miss (4 out of 5 tries it will not do all three numbers for the correct channel).

I will be cancelling my Fioptics TV and returning to Directv.
