Has anyone heard of or purchased a WiFi device that uses ones home network to enable watching TV say on a WiFi connected PC in another room? All I can find is these 2.4 Ghz analog tx/rcvrs which don't work very well. Thanks.

I am moving to a new house in Berkeley Heights, NJ and was considering going with Comcast HD cable instead of DirecTV. Anyone else have Comcast in this area? If so, how does the hardware stack up to the directv HD tivo unit? Thanks.

I had the Winegard sensar installed with my Voom setup but it was a piece of crap. I then installed the CM 4228 plus a 7775 preamp and now can pull in all locals except NBC (North central NJ, NY locals). I would definitely recommend the 4228. I put it in my attic although I had to take it apart...

Sounds like you have it hooked up correctly. I essentially did the same thing with one HD rcvr and a powered OTA antenna although I needed to move the DC power supply up to the attic since both the DTV rcvr and the power supply were trying to put different DC voltages on the same coax. Check out...

Has anyone else noticed a drop in signal power over the last 12-24 hrs. Usually my satellite power is 94-95 but last night I noticed that it was 91 in clear weather conditions and this morning it is 81 also in clear weather.

Is that the Toshiba SD-H400? This is the one that I got at BB for $99 after $100 rebate. Works great with VOOM!!

I know a couple of people have sucessfully hooked up a basic TIVO unit to the VOON rcvr but has anyone tried hooking the Toshiba SD-H400 Digital Media Sever? This unit is also a TIVO series 2 DVR but has progressive scan component outputs and a DVD player built in as well. I was thinking this...

You must have to use an IR transmitter from the TIVO...??

How does the TIVO box tell the VOOM rcvr what channel to tune to?

You can run the Winegard to another STB or to the V* STB without the diplexer if you use a power injector inserted somewhere between the antenna and the STB. A power injector is a device that supplies a DC voltage on the coax line andd it just plugs into a wall socket. Hope this helps. BTW, you...

I am having the same problem but it seems to be confined to the VaVaVoom channels. I tried most of the Voom package channels and they seem to be OK. All of the premium channels I have tried seem to be having the same problem. I have tried hard and soft reboots but neither seemed to help. I have...
