I've had it in Columbus since July. The household dvr is awesome! Lets me watch my shows when I go down to the smoke room. The In demand works great. I really have no complaints other then I don't believe they have a baseball package (atleast not the last time I checked). No biggie though, because that saves me money.

I had a problem with one receiver and they came out pretty fast to replace it. I have also heard you can use the ethernet port on the back of the receiver as a switch port to the internet connection. Still haven't tested it, but if true it will make it nice to plug the xbox360 into it and not use wireless.

BTW, I have the U400 with internet, no phone.

Total for mine U200/3 mb Internet/HD/No phone is just shy of $98 per month. For me there isn't the choice of Time Warner only Comcast which charged about the same price without the HD and DVR.

Connection bridging is not supported nor recommended. Basically if you have a free Ethernet port on the back of your set top box then your box is run to the gateway via HPNA. This is not exactly the best connection method and if you are getting a stream to the box and using the Ethernet port to have anything go to the Internet it will severely tax not only the set top box but also the residential gateway. If you have any trouble with that configuration do not expect support to help you continue to use it. Just a heads up.

TiVo isn't totally worthless you just have to jump through a few hoops including ir remote and and only on channel at a time on tivo ... one more thing you have to make TIVO change the channel once every 4 hours ... of course I am assuming it is the series 2 tivo and not the HD tivo, HD tivo and uverse = fail
