So Techman, what has Verizon done to get this slow/poorly responding DVR box problem rectified?  You know it really makes Verizon's Top Notch - Super Duper Fast Fios Technology seem like a big JOKE.

Just this morning I had to call and request my 4th DVR box from VZ.  This time I was persistant that I wanted a new box not a refurbished box.

I'm sure the Fios Techonology is great but the equipment you send out is insufficient.

1) The DVR boxes do not have enough memory to keep up with mulitiple task, watching one channel, recording another and pulling up the guide.  The lag/slow response is absolutely unacceptable.

2) Stop sending your new customers someone elses junk box you've had returned to you.

Honestly whoever thought out this whole box process I hope has to go through every bit of frustration that we have with ours.

Remote ordered? you mean remote access to call forwarding?  NO it's not available.  I just got back from the Verizon Plus store and got a new DVR box but here we go again with another problem.  Since the old box is still showing up on verizon.com/fiostvcentral and it's the first one listed I can not access the new box on the webpage.  The last 2 DVR box exchanges took FOREVER before the old boxes disappeared.  How can I get this corrected?  Thanks
