Slorry, can't help you with this one. I suggest you contact Verizon and/or Fantom drives.

No, you cannot. To use this, you first need cable/Fios/Uverse service. You also need to "rent" a cablecard from your cable provider. You then need to purchase this unit. Then you need to either purchase a lifetime (for this specific unit - not your life) service contract or you will pay monthly service fees (either of those are to Tivo). You will only avoid paying monthly DVR rental/lease fees to your cable provider.

It worked with our Motorola HD DVR and HD receivers when we had Xfinity Cable via Comcast in the past. We switched to a satellite company in the last few months. To answer your question more directly, it worked great with the Xfinity boxes (Motorola) as of last Spring (2013) when we had that service. I hope this helps!

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

Thanks for your input== The unit died on me so back to the store. I never realized how inefficient these unit are-- I do a lot of recording to DVD-RW discs so this unit wont be of any help-- (I had just purchased another 50 DVD-RW discs)I forgot how much work there is in recording the old fashioned way with all the Start & end times-Ch # . With Fios's guide you only have one button to record for future events. I think I'll wait til they come out with a unit with a guide. Although it seems like these units are near the end and will be replaced soon. thanks again!

I'm not sure, but I do know that it does NOT work with a Verizon DVR box so steer clear if you plan on using it for that

I don't know what that is, but I would think it would work with any DVR as long as there are enough jacks to plug in the cables

It doesn't work with uverse. I have one that I recently bought and it says on the outside of the box that it doesn't work with uverse and only works with cable or verizon fios.

Assuming your VIZIO uses a standard infrared remote, the Hot Link will work great. This unit will reliably transmit any IR signal to a distant (in a closet, for instance) location. I assume that the device you really need to control, though, is your DVR, not your TV, as the TV's IR receiver is on the front of the TV. To control the DVR remotely the Hot Link will work perfectly. I own two of these systems - they are both flawless.Good Luck

I do not know. In my case, I was desperate to get a remote receiver. I bought this on the hope that it would work with my DVR cable box. It did not. I can't fault the supplier or Amazon, as my box was not listed as one of the compatible units. As I said, I took the gamble hoping that it would work. My suggestioin would be this, if your unit is not listed, it probably will not work.

I ordered this remote replacement.It is a great remote , and is exactly as the real one. The thing is that it can be programmed for just 2 devices. One is the FIOS DVR, and the the other program is for the TV.I recommend that you check with Verizon, They may have remotes with more programmable options, then you can check in Amazon, to order the type they recommend. I know that Verizon has remotes for 3 or more devices, but let them to advise you.

This thing. Just plugs into your USB slot in the back or front of your DVR. It works great with my sling adapter. I tried to plug both the WIFI and the sling adapter into a USB hub plugged into the back of the DVR, but it wouldn't draw enough power evidently, so that's why I plug the WIFI adapter into the front USB plug

It should, though I don't know from experience. I have Verizon but not Fios.

I just got my camera, tried to install yesterday. I have Verizon Fios router, it worked with hardwire, but doesn't seem to work with the Wifi.Did it work out for you?

That isnt the setup i have but based on my unserstanding of how the unit works, it should work. I have cable but no box and i ran the cable into the dvr so i would think that if you run a line out of the antenna into the dvr, it should work..

I had the same situation basically. This switch is a great device to do just what you want. Just remove the Cat5 plug from the DVR and insert it into the UPLINK of the switch (from the Bridge plug into the uplink. Now just use Cat5 to plug your Blue-ray device and your DVR device into the switch, but make sure you don't use the plug immediately next to the uplink port! That last port does not work in the 5 port model of this switch. Now just power up the switch and all should be working!

I appreciate your quick response== I have a Verizon DVR box with my Primary (OLD STD TV)and a what I assume is a STB box hooked to my TV in the Florida Room. I think I understand that if I remove their DVR box and replace it with the Verizon STB box and hook it to the Magnavox HDD/DVR and then OUT to the TV then it should work. I'll let you know when I install the Magnavox DVR. This is really a great program and the response is TOPS.
