something related I think. The rep asked me if I was running straight to cable or from a cable box. I was running straight at the time but usually use a cable box. I switched over to the box and have had no more problems. However i am just guessing at the problem based on his question and my experience so far.

Why would it make a difference if you were running straight from cable or through a box (outside of getting different channels)?
I refuse to use a cable box personally.

  I'm don't have that answer. I would rather not use a box but in order to get pay per view it is a must. I checked on a card sometime back and was told there were some down sides. I'll probably order HD now that we have the TV for it so I will check into it some more. But I understand what you're saying about using a box. AAMOF, the reason why I did not have the box in the loop was that without it we can pick up the network HD channels. I don't understand why though.

    Most cable companies will let you have the local HD channels free without the box. They may be *required* to give it to you. Cable cards, if they can get them to work, don't do pay per view.
