Finally, new tv options were available in our neighborhood so we just connected to Verizon’s new FIOS TV, which is fiber-optic based. The waiting list in my state is especially long, so while I signed up last month, it wasn’t installed until last week. At the present time, we were hooked up with FIOS internet, which provided 15MB downstream as well as upstream Ten dollars a month is all that the premium service costs. and I’ve been really satisfied.

Installation to connect my TV was a breeze because I currently had internet with Verizon FIOS. He was able to utilize the Coax splitter I already had in place, splitting the wire leading to the router. The coax cable laid outside, gets split as they enter your house, spread to all your rooms and in the process a downstream cable gets into the Coax connector of Verizon Internet Router. Although the router speaks TCP/IP over RJ-45 to the DVR, it can also hand out IP addresses over Coax to supply the house. (DVR or Digital Video Recorder device) that comes included along with your FIOS TV bundle.

This DVR has a storage capacity of 17 viewing hours in HD, or 60 in SD broadcast (standard definition, not HD) or any possible mixture of the two of them that you can dream up. It’s easy to set it so that each recording is “protected”, as can be done with most DVRs. (not deleted in an automatic manner) You may fix yourself in a queue with the last x recordings. It’s possible to choose just the latest programs, or every show, with reruns included.

The Fios Package is priced at $43 per month and you can choose among standard, HD, Standard DVR and HD DVR for your DVD options. We found that paying $60 for cable TV wasn’t a good enough value considering how little TV we watch. Premium channels cost the same as with cable, most likely since HBO and Showtime set their own costs, rather than the provider.

Overall, I can report that we’ve been thoroughly pleased! The quality of the picture is outstanding, the set-top box works well, and I believe that Verizon will keep updating the boxes with the newest software features and even more On-Demand Movies. With this being only the first time that my area has had access to FIOS TV, I believe they have made an auspicious launch. I feel that local cable does not compete with this service.
