    FiOS 4K Olympics Coverage

    For anyone who cares, it appears that FiOS will expand its' 4K channel offering during the Olympics. I checked last night, and they have at least 5 channels targeted to cover the games.

    NHL Network on Altice

    A buddy of mine had Altice One and all of a sudden, it appears they have removed NHL Network. He sent me a few pics, one is the message on the NHL Network ch and the other is from their website. Anyone know of any disputes?

    4K NFL Thursday Night games on FiOS

    Not sure if it has been mentioned previously (or if anyone cares), but FiOS has the Thursday Night Football games in 4K. Watched just a few minutes of the game this past week. Can't say I was too impressed. I recall watching a soccer game on Altice One last year and, again, wasn't too impressed...

    Altice One Optimum prices?

    I miss the fast forward feature on the Genie also, when you push play, it rewinds a short amount of time. Honestly, I am really enjoying FiOS. I've been with DirecTV, Optimum and FiOS over the last 14 years. The new FiOS TV One equipment is fantastic. Very similar remote to Altice One...but it...

    Altice One Optimum prices?

    I started a thread in regard to the Altice One equipment, last year. It included my description of the service, that I had for just a few months. Hopefully your experience will be better than mine. Altice One

    Altice One

    Even paying promotional prices, I still expect my services to work as expected. There were quite a few things I liked about the service and I'm disappointed that it isn't ready for prime time, so to speak. I would certainly consider them again once they iron out the kinks with the new equipment...

    Altice One

    Well, this will probably be my last update for my Altice One service. A few weeks after my last post, I started to have a few hiccups again. While it didn't happen as often as before, it was enough to annoy me. There were a few times when I couldn't access my DVR and had to get up and unplug the...

    Altice One

    It's been about a month and a half since my last update. And since that time, all of my Altice One boxes have improved, performance wise. I can switch between channels, call up the program guide and use the DVR with just little to no hesitation. Knock on wood, but I haven't had the boxes freeze...

    New Contract Question

    When a new customer signs up with DirecTV, the contract is for 24 months, while most (if not all) of the promotions expire after just 12 months. I was curious to know if they've ever been willing to extend the promotions for the length of the contract, when signing up a new customer if the...

    Spectrum being kicked out of New York State question about ISP

    I haven't seen their site. But, FiOS has been available for at least 5-6 years in parts of Dutchess County. Areas of Poughkeepsie, Fishkill & Beacon. Maybe other areas, as well. But, those are the only ones in which I am aware.

    Altice One

    One last update. The Altice One boxes continue to slow down enough to the point that I'm ready to abandon Optimum and go back to either DirecTV or FiOS. I've been in contact with their customer support, and they have been unable help in rectifying this issue...even after multiple refreshes. It's...

    Altice One

    Quick update...Altice One boxes have slowed down just a bit. Pulling up the guide, and scrolling through, sometimes freezes before it moves on. I've had to do a couple of reboots because the box just froze up completely. To this point, I'm still happy with the service in general.
