I've had HELIX with GIGA speed for almost 3 years. So far, it's been pretty reliable but there are occasional interruptions and slowdowns. Certainly better than Illico. But over the last 2 months, I've been losing Internet or WiFi connections several times during the day. These are short disruptions...a minute or a few. Several times too the HELIX receivers can't connect to the gateway. But after a few minutes it's OK. It's become a real annoyance. So I called technical support last week. They told me right away that I have electromagnetic interference. Apparently, they have a tool that tells them this. Happens at fairly regular intervals not not exactly at predicable times and rarely overnight. But nothing has changed in my home. The gateway is still in the same place and nothing is blocking it. I haven't bought anything like a soundbar or smart TV or any new appliance. This problem has come out of nowhere. Maybe a neighbor? I live in brick a home and my neighbor's homes are all brick too. I have a hard time believing that's the cause. Anyone else have a similar problem? How do you go about finding the problem. The support guy said I could download the NetSpot app which I did. But I can't really figure out how this product works. Any one have experience with such a tool? If this continues, I'm going to Switch to Bell Fibre direct 3.0 Gbps.
Helix Resume glitch
I have been calling Videotron support since December about an issue with the "resume" feature. I cannot watch 2 events at the same time (with 2 recorded) as the resume always goes back to the start of the recorded program. Illico did not require you to record 1 of the programs. You could just go between the 2 and it would resume properly. 2 or 8 programs were automatically being recorded. In any case, I have been trying to get info on when this would be fixed. No help at all. But I was told that Videotron uses Comcast Xfinity SW. Which I did not know. Turns out this is not a bug. I'm not sure which is more frustrating: Not having the primary feature for which I have Helix (recording sports) or no one at Videotron seemingly being aware of the issue
Helix sous Linux
J'ai trouvé plein de conversations sur le sujet avec plein de belles promesses depuis avant 2020. Ceci étant dit, nous sommes en 2026 et c'est rendu que DELL, Lenovo, HP vendent un bon pourcentage d'ordinateurs avec Linux installé nativement. Avec les problèmes de stabilité, de performance, le bloatware AI et Copilot qui espionne les usagers, Lenovo prévoit même vendre 60% de ses ordinateurs avec Linux installé d'ici quelques années. C'est prévu pour quand le réveil chez Videotron. Pour la compagnie avant-gardiste que vous disez être, vous manquez le bateau. Aucun autre site de streaming ne pose ce problème sur Linux.
Helix TV Issue "Channel Temporarily Unavailable"
I have always had this issue, but disregarded it because I didn't watch too much TV. However, now that the Olympics are on, I've been watching much more often. The issue I'm experiencing is that every time I watch Helix TV, after a few minutes, the three dots appear on the screen as if it's loading something. After sometime, the error message shows up "This channel is temporarily unavailable". While this is happening, I can hear the sound of the channel in the background, and can change channels, but I can't see anything except the 3 dots. Clicking "Try Again" or "Cancel" does not do anything. Guide still works and the Helix button brings up the menu, but when anything is selected, it just shows the 3 dots loading. The only thing that fixes this is to unplug the box and plug it back in, but then after a few minutes the problem starts up again. I have tried changing HDMI cables, changing the Helix box from the old (Gen 1) to the more recent (Gen 2), but still am having the same problem. Please see the screenshot for a better understanding. Has anyone experienced this before, and if so, what was the solution?

Mistakes to avoid while doing report writing.
Report Writing Service can be a hassle for students, as they have to avoid mistakes and make it look formal and presentable. Students make mistakes, and when they submit their report with those mistakes, it can cause frustration, and their grade can go down. Avoid these mistakes to submit a formal report. The main problem is the structure of the report; if your report does not have a proper structure, then it can look messy and show a lack of attention. Inaccurate or irrelevant information can portray a bad image of your report, so double-check the information before adding it to the report.Issue with HELIX Recording Playback
With Helix, do all recorded programs start from the beginning when you play them again? I could swear that if you played a recorded show and paused it after X minutes, changed the channel and then came back to watch the recorded program, it would start from where you paused, not from the beginning. It is not doing that anymore. Was there a firmware update that changed this? I know for a fact that it was not always like this because I would record a sporting event and play it while watching another live show by going back and forth between the two. When I went back to play the recorded sporting event, it would play from where I paused. But now it always starts from the beginning of the recording.Questions about Crave
Hi, I have a few questions about Crave. My understanding is that this is a streaming provider other than Videotron, right? If I want to watch something on Crave I have to logon to a Crave site, right? Are there requirements for Videotron members to subscribe to Crave? As Videotron members, do we get a discount subscribing to Crave? To people watching Crave, how is it? Not worth it because its mostly old new shows Takes months before something new shows up Kind of interesting to watch New stuffs on it but not as much as Netflix nor Amazon Prime Totally worth it Is there a way to see Crave's schedule to get an idea on what kind of show/movies they have? Personnaly, from the adds on Videotron TV mentionning Crave, I have seen only one show that I would be interesting to see. The others did not interest me.TV now boring, nothing new, same shows, same movies, for the past 2-3 years
Is anyone finding that anything shows on TV is now boring, its same shows rerun, same movies every 2-3 months, nothing is new, just replays? A few years ago, I was watching TV series that I liked but they moved away to private streaming companies. What is left on TV is boring. I am not a fan of sports. To start watching again the shows I used to love, I would have to subscribes to 3-4 different streaming companies. Every 1-3 months its the same movies playing that I saw like 3 times at least (Avengers, Transformers, ...). There is nothing new. I am up to the point where I hardly ever watch TV. My wife watches it but she never complains. She hasn't seen them all yet. So am I the only one who thinks that way now? #TVNowBoring
Appli Helix TV: Appareil manquant pour casting
Suis-je le seul où lorsque je cherche à caster depuis l'application Helix TV, je ne vois pas l'ensemble des appareils qui supporte le casting de mon réseau? Dans mon cas, ma télé TCL QM7 (os android 12) et nvidia shield (depuis update 9.1) ne sont jamais inscrit dans la liste d'appareil. Par contre, je suis toujours en mesure de caster à mes Chromecast et vers ma barre de son JBL link bar (android TV). Je peux valider que les appareils sont bien configuré dans google home puisque je suis en mesure de caster depuis d'autres applications comme Youtube et Netflix. Idéalement, j'aimerais comprendre exactement ce que Helix fait comme validation avant d'afficher les appareils. Par exemple: Version du micrologiciel Chromecast Appareil avec une adresse IPV6 local Version DRM supporter J'utilise sans problème l'appli Helix TV depuis environ deux ans. J'ai remarqué la problématique lors de la mise à jour du shield à version 9.1 et lors de l'installation de la TCL QM7. L'ensemble des appareils sont connecté au même réseau WIFI. Mes équipements réseautiques sont composés du Helix Fi 2 et un pods. Merci,
