None of my channels are coming in HD. I have TWC and the channels were working fine. I tried resetting the TA but it has not fixed it. I am wondering if it has anything todo with TWC becoming charter. Has anyone ever had this issue? I am calling TWC support tomorrow.
Last post
And just realized you said you tried resetting your TA. Missed that on first reading. I'd then try resetting your ceton via their SW. And then re setup the cable in WMC.

Also realize that only the ETH has the leak. If you have a slot, the 4 tuner card would be a reliable alternative.

Is it possible to use a crossover cable to hook up my HTPC to the ETH6? My HTPC only has a wireless connection to my network and running cable to the router isn't possible. I would use the PCIe version, but it wouldn't install the drivers on my system (GeForce chipset is unsupported).
