We have had the gateway for about 2 months now. So far it is OK but buggy.

1. Portals lose connection to the gateway sometimes brefly and then sometimes require a reboot. Likely our biggest complaint.

2. Some delay when changing channels - nothing major and we had this with the old PVR's

3. Love the central PVR, that is awesome.

4. I found that if you have to reboot (see #1) then it is best to reboot the entire system. Unplug all portals and gateway. Restart gateway and wait for all the lights to show up. Then restart the portals.

5. My wife likes to sleep with the TV on (not sure why) so the 3 hour timeout acts like a sleep timer for her. I like that.

6. Support wait times for the gateway suck ass but I have only had to call them once. I wanted to move the gateway from our bedroom to the basement so I want to ask if I could that or needed a service call. Other than that no other calls have been needed.

I would recommend the system to anyone. Hopefully they keep working on the bugs.
