I haven't had an issue with live tv (but I hardly ever watch live tv), but occasionally, I'll have problems with playing back recordings. Based on the information I could find when I looked into this, it seems to be related to the updates Telus sends out to the boxes every so often. If the update doesn't go through completely, the box will start to glitch.

The solution seems to be the old stand-by, hard reset. Unplug all of your boxes (wireless, wired, and modem) for 30 seconds or more to let them reset themselves. I don't know if this actually matters, but one thing I found said to plug them back in in this order: modem, wired tv box, wireless tv box.

I did try just resetting the wireless box and it didn't fix it, so it does appear you need to do all of them.
