Is anyone using this with Verizon fios cable I am thinking of buying this to use with Verizon fiber optic cable. Is anyone using their cable cards?

My brother has this setup and the picture is awesome! I believe verizon charges more for their cablecards than cablevision does. Definitely compatible and would recommend

Yes. I use Verizon FiOS HD TV service and I have two cablecards for the dual channel capability. Please note: The signal coming from FiOS is very powerful, and in many cases too powerful for the TiVo. I had to purchase a "db attenuator" which is a small plug that goes inline with the incoming coax cable. I am using a 20db attenuator. Without the attenuator you may get signal problems/pixelation. If you go into "Messages & Settings" and click on "Diagnostics" you will see "SN Ratio" (Signal to Noise Ratio). The sweet spot for TiVo Series 3 is "31db - 32db". If it's more than that you may get choppy picture. Yes. I use Verizon FiOS HD TV service and I have two cablecards for the dual channel capability.

I'm on a FIOS line with Verizon, and mine works fine in full duplex. I also have an AT#T multiline phone and it has no problems either. Who is your carrier? Perhaps you should contact them, perhaps its the echo suppression technology in place that is causing the loss of exerpts?

I actually tried it without a Verizon box, hooking the FIOS cable directly to the MDR-515 and asked it to auto channels with cable, analog/digital. I got lots of clear and sharp channels but not all, and it was hard to tell what are those channels, many seems to be repeat of the few basic channels. Phillip

I had trouble making this access point work with my router for my Verizon FIOS service. I saw that many others had problems as well. I eventually threw it in the trash as by the time I sorted out the issue it was too late to return and Linksys would not resolve my problem or take it back. I would NOT recommend buying this access point.

This works with our Verizon Fios, but we had to call the technical support to walk us through the process. My husband had to reboot it 3 times, but now it works great and we can record a ton more of shows and movies!

No this particular model is not cable card ready. It has 4 HDMI connections, 2 USB connections, 1 SD Card slot, Optical cable connect, Ethernet port, and is wifi ready with apps (netflix, pandora, youtube, etc). The cable card was not that important to me because I use netflix and hulu. I also have a PS3 that I use for my standard and 3D bluray collection. When I purchased this model from amazon it was under $900.00. The best price at the time of purchase than any other 3D Hdtv. I love it!

Joe C says:I have intermitant failure of my HDMI connection even with Verizon Fios. I have 40" Samsung LCD and Verizon supplied Motorola 6417-2 DVR box.I have to unplug the HDMI cable and plug it back in again almost every evening. Some times I have to unplug and replug the power cord to do a soft reboot to the DVR box. One Verizon manager said it's system static build up and she unplugs everyday. Other Verizon techs says it's Samsung's fault but Verizon will be issueing the new 7000 series Motorola DVR box which might solve the problem. Too many stories..... Otherwise the picture is awesome as long as the DVR box isn't doing it's other crash and reboot issue. Joe C says:I have intermitant failure of my HDMI connection even with Verizon Fios.

Matthew...Who do you use for Broadcast service...cable, Fios, DirecTV? I am having the same issue with this TV, Samsung Surround sound system and DirectTv. I am thinking it may have something to do with going through a receiver for surround sound. Do you use one?

I work for Dish Network, and while this seems a very possible option in the future, currently I'm not aware of any Direct TV or Dish Cable cards available. My guess would be no, seeing as how I get calls from customer that have cable card slots often and none of them have any.

Maritza C Bishop, This model comes with the Verizon FIOS App - I haven't seen the Flex App, but you can also search the Samsung Appstore on the Samsung.com website. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

Do you happen to know whether the same holds true for Verizon's FIOS service? Or would I need their HD box?

yes, I do it all the time. I have three sets connect to Verizon Fios but it would apply to any cable service. To watch three different programs on three different sets you must have 3 cable adapters but NOT with this Wireless... this system does NOT include the transmitters so I am sending it back.

Yes, it works with fios. It's a simple install. It basically sets itself up. Well worth the money.

I use this successfully with Verizon VZAccess Manager. This is a wireless internet modem and must be used to access Verizon satellite internet only.It used to be available through their "plans." They now offer 5 spot etc. I do not like those as they must be charged and the 2 I have owned, have issues of getting kicked off frequently. If you travel frequently I highly recommend this. It is always fast, ready, needs no charge and is PRIVATE! Love it. Verizon only tho.

I don't think so -- they have nothing in common. FIOS gives you a cat-5 Ethernet cable where this booster is for coax cable.

Hello, I have only used mine with Verizon DSL and on the box it states that it will not work with Cable Internet providers like Comcast, Time Warner, Cox, Charter, etc.. or with non-Adsl Internet providers like Verizon FIOS and At&t; U-Verse. Hopes that helps.

I don't have Verizon Fios, but you have to understand the point of the repeater is extend your wireless signal. Assuming you are running a wireless network at home, the repeater will allow you to get or extend that wireless signal to places you don't already have it. If you're using Verizon just for wireless tv, you should check if you need Verizon hardware to access that signal. But if you're using Verizon for your wireless tablets or laptops, the repeater should work for extending that signal. Difficulty? If you can find your SSID and password for your wireless network, no problem. If you don't know what that is, have someone else do it.
