Fios TV One not detected

Lately my service has been terrible. Internet and phone work but tv won’t. The loading screen will come up like it’s reseting itself, then it’ll come up to a troubleshoot screen. It says to check if the Fios tv one is on and connected, which it always is. Then it troubleshoots and gets nothing. It pops up to a screen that says “ We apologize, but your Fios TV One was not automatically detected. Your equipment may have changed.” Nothing has changed and it does this randomly, I’ve restarted all the boxes and the main box into the house. I talk with Fios and sometimes what they do works, sometimes not, they say we need to send a tech out. A day later I get an email saying they fixed something on their end and it works again for a day, maybe a couple. Then start all over again. What is going on?

Did you check the splitter coming off the main line from the ONT to make sure  all connections are clean and tight? Is the splitter MoCa 2.0 certified? Are there any other splitters? Try first disconnecting power to all boxes. disconnect power to router for at least 3 minutes. Re-power router, wait for it to stabilize, power up VMS box. When that is up power up minis. If no improvement, you may have a bad splitter, or bad VMS box. Replace the splitter first, if that doesn't help, you may need a new VMS.

Exactly the same thing has happened to me.  I had techs come to the house.  Never resolved. I reset the system Dailey.  What am I paying for. $250 a month for what?  It doesn’t work.  Very upsetting.  I’m about to cancel this service.  In the past never had an issue.  Been having this same issue for over 6 months now.  Verizon doesn’t have any answers.   System is also very slow.  Doesn’t respond.  Will shut off. Will troubleshoot and I can’t exit the screen. It also pauses tv.  So frustrating.  Not happy especially paying for something that doesn’t work.
