The first few times it did this Telus came by and installed a better router and switch and that seemed to fix the problem for a long time. It would freeze up occasionally, but usually at a late night hour where they do testing and software downloads.

The past few weeks, it started happening more frequently (to the point I was resetting the box 2-3x a day) and when I called about it they offered the upgrade to the Telus Anywhere PVR box for no charge and since its been installed, I have yet to have a freezing problem with it. I guess this new box has a faster internet connection which I was told is the reason why it doesn't freeze because a slow connect is what causes the picture or response to be slow.
Telus told me they installed the newest technology in my house so I'm not sure that's the problem. Them changing the cords might have helped a little bit because before I would have to reset when it freezes, but now it comes back in about 5 seconds.
