I've had my two V6s for over a week now. The installation was smooth and relatively quick and, so far, the new boxes have been trouble free without any of the problems plaguing some of the other posters to Cable Forum. I should point out that I have a hard-wired Cat6 set-up via a Superhub 2. The greatly increased speed is very welcome, as are the extra tuners, and at long last I can stream HD recordings from one box to the other without the dreaded 'Network Too Slow (V69)' errors that made my viewing such a misery on the old TiVos. Netflix and BBC iPlayer load in a matter of seconds. Cost of the upgrade aside, I am delighted with the V6.

Nothing's perfect, of course, and I would be interested to learn how people think the V6 could be improved. Now that I can finally use multi-room streaming and watch my recordings on the TV in the room of my choice what I would like to see is the ability to review my Planned Recordings and Series Links from one box on the other - and vice-versa in much the same way I can review my recordings across both V6s.

Constructive suggestions only, please. There are plenty of other threads on Cable Forum to voice dissatisfaction and point out problems.
