I thought this time would be different. Sure, Verizon and I shared an unhappy history but that was years ago and people change. When FIOS showed up last year with the promise of fiber optics to my door, I was seduced into giving Verizon another try.
I should have known better.
My FIOS Internet is faster, so it's a partial victory, but FIOS TV has frequently let me down. It's the multi-room DVR that disappoints. It's flaky and buggy and even when it does work, it's no TiVo.
Lately, the DVR has taken to randomly rebooting. Not a good sign. Then it started recording shows that shouldn't even be broadcast. Yes, that's as weird as it sounds.
