Remote DVR Recording Questions

I have been using FIOS for several years and find the service fine.  I just recently tried to remotely program my DVR (6416 HD) STB through my laptop and my Verizon internet access using TV Central.  I can sign on fine, see the TV listings, and see all four of my STB's.  When I try to record a program it "thinks"  for a while and then comes back with a message saying it couldn't complete the procedure and that I should try again later.  

By the way, when I go the DVR manager on the STB, it shows the correct internet id and all looks correct.

I have talked to support several times and was told that they would escalate my problem to "level 2" but have not heard from anyone.  I even reset my STB and router to see if that would help (if didn't).

Do I need to replace my STB?  It is several years old.

I would welcome any and all ideas anyone might have to help me.  I occasionally would like to record a program remotely.

Thanks

I don't believe I received your note.  Since I posted my first note, I have received a new router which I successfully installed on my system.  Still no remote DVR so not sure what to do next.
