I haven't seen any recent discussion on FIOStv, so I thought I would make a fresh topic.
Situation: I am moving in to a new apartment building that is prewired for Verizon Fios (in East Amherst, NY 14051). I have never operated FIOS, or seen FIOS picture.
Questions:
1). What are the most up to date set top boxes?
2). Do the channels offer surround sound? 7.1? Is there a list of which channels offer surround sound?
3). Will I encounter any problems when streaming video and audio through HDMI to my Pioneer VSX-21TXH?
4.) Can I plug a hard wired ethernet cable from the router in to an 8 port switch? Is there a brand that works best with the fios receiver?
4). Is there any other must know information?
Thanks for everyone's help. Verizon's customer support/tech support hasn't been much help.
