Re: Just got Eastlink bundle need a little help.

my net recently gave out and same with the phone service, but I phoned them up and they got it fixed.

I just found out from the guys who came and fixed it that actually work with eastlink that the private installers that they hire only do half the job so they have to come back and get paid twice for commission.

The guy didn't change the wires outside to the newer ones that support all the information going though it. So they had that done in 30 mins and now everything is working wonderfully now.

But I still have problems with the DVR... it won't let me record 2 shows at once if they have the same title and are on different channels.

I wanted to record Law and order SVU on mystery channel and then the new episodes on NBC in HD and it doesn't work Now this and useless favorites are things I would love fixed in the PVR. It also wants to tape episodes on channels I don't even have, it would be great if they at least let you go in and say you don't want it recorded on that station.

yea my buddy has a pvr and tells me once in a while their guide is not perfect. He gets pissed at some of the recordings too

I kinda found a small solution to the favs. I got a harmony one remote and programmed the chan + key as the favs button on the reg eastlink remote. Now at least going up in chans all the time it skips to only your programmed chans. If they just fix it now so the chan - key skipped to your favs too we'd be all set.

Not holding my breath for that to happen anytime soon though

that's a good idea, I might go look for a universal remote. I wouldn't mind one that works with the PS3 so I don't have to switch between them for when I watch Blurays.

It's funny tho, since the day after I canceled, Bell has been phoning EVERY SINGLE DAY so far to go back with them and they will lower my monthly bill to 10 dollars less than what I'm paying with Eastlink.

I always say no and just hang up.

Also, I noticed I stopped getting telemarketers phone calls! Makes me wonder if they were though bell getting my number or if Eastlink blocks them automatically cause that is awesome, I hated them so much, I had at least 7 of them phone me every day when I was with Bell. I'm loving the peace and quiet now when I'm working.
