    Network help please

    Finally fixed problem. The router settings had Secure Spot checked. This apparently is an additional layer of security that had been blocking the DVR. Unchecked it and now I'm connected.

    Network help please

    I have my hr20-700 wired to my network. I can see the DVR with my Network Magic program; I can ping it but I can't connect to internet. I have my McAfee firewall turned off (as well as Windows firewall). I gave up trying to connect wirelessly so I bought a cat 5 wire and connected directly. I...

    Wiring Set-up from Cable to Direct

    When I asked my installer the same question about using my cable tv cables, stating that I wanted new RG6 cable (old cables were about 10 yrs old) he told me the Zinwell 6x8 switch would make all my old cables RG6.:eek::rolleyes::haha:yikes:shocked

    What Do I Do With the Defective HR20?

    The day after I had D* installed the HR20-700 crapped out. The service tech. brought me a new one a few days later, installed it, and put the old one in the box the new one came in. He said D* would send me another box to return it in. They never sent one, and I still have the old HR20. Should I...

    Is there a Difference in Rev. 2 and Rev. 3 B-Band Converters?

    I had my HR20 replaced and got a new set of B-Band Converters with it. The new ones are gold lable and say Rev. 3. My originals were silver lable with Rev. 2 on it. Is there a difference? Should I connect the Rev. 3 even though everyting is working perfectly? I'd hate to screw things up.:confused:

    Lost categories in my Guide list

    I have an Hr29-700 and have the same problem. Started out with Guide showing ALL CHANNELS, NEWS CHANNELS, MUSIC CHANNELS, etc. I set up 2 custom guides and now only get the one set up instead of all the rest. One day they all came back but disappeared when I made a change to one of my CUSTOM guides.

    Where Do I find

    the names of the programs I have programmed to record in the future? In my old cable DVR I could go to one place and see what shows I wanted recorded. In the HR20-700, I go to List and see what HAS been recorded; I go to To Do and find some of the programs I have set to record but not all of...

    An Update

    Setting aside satellite or accounting problems, there is NO excuse for the lack of communication from D*. Customers should not have to rely on "friends in high places", "a little bird told me", or any other than offical announcements. Communications are vital, and the lack thereof -...

    MY Installation Saga

    :eek:. My installation story with D* I was supposed to get my D* installed (new customer) last Monday. The installer arrived and there was a light rain but he said he saw lightning and didn't want to walk around with an antenna and pole while it was lightning. I couldn't disagree with him but he...

    Brighthouse Seems to be Clueless

    I hate to leave BHN. I really enjoyed their committment to picture quality. Whoever's idea (in BHN Management) it is to "not say anything" about future plans for more HD should be fired. In this day of more information is better, their decision makers are way behind the times and have reached...

    Brighthouse Seems to be Clueless

    I consider myself an "educated" consumer. I read all there is about HDTV, who provides what, the bitrate, compression, etc., etc. I am happy with all aspects of Brighthouse's HD operation EXCEPT their lack of committment to adding new channels. Someone mentioned the marketplace taking care of...
