I have been streaming Netflix movies using my Samsung Bluray player in one room and using LG TV (with built-in Netflix) in another room for over 6 months without any issues. This past Friday I found out that the Netflix streaming quality was very poor with lots of pixelation and horizontal lines of various colors. I then tried playing movies from Netflix using my computers and the video plays for about 5 seconds before I get the error N8156-4001 from the Netflix movie viewer. These are all the things I tried but till now the problem is not resolved ...
* Rebooted the Actiontec router
* I was using OpenDNS, so I switched back to the Verizon DNS servers, that didn't help, so switched back to OpenDNS, still the same
* Deactivated my Netflix devices and reactivated them
* Upgraded Silverlight to version 4
* Flushed DNS cache on my computer
* Unplugged my Bluray player and Netflix enabled TV and reconfigured the network on both of them
* Released my router's DHCP connection and renewed it
All of my speed tests indicate good speeds - 15-20 Mbps download, I have no Qos configured on my router, my computers and bluray player and TV have hardwired network connections, tracert to Netflix server doesn't indicate any problem and I can play even HD videos from YouTube without any problem. It sounds like the issue is with Netflix or Fios is throttling Netflix traffic but I would think that a lot more people would see this issue then. Anyone else seeing this?
Can anyone think of anything else I can try or look for?
Thanks very much in advance.

I've been having the same problem with Netflix.
I have also had a big drop-off in speed, though. I pay for 25 mbps service, but haven't gotten above 18 mbps in weeks.

I am having an issue with streaming a Netflix TV show to my Apple TV and then watching it. The Netfix program stops every few minutes for 30 sec or more forcing me to hit play or fast forward on my remote. The Netflix rep said to reboot the Apple TV and the FIOS router but it didn,t solve the problem. I checked my download speed: it is about 17 Mb. Can someone help?

I feel like being "had" in a big way, and the fuse will eventually burn out.
