We have a private office account with different dishes from SD to the latest HD dishes. Some of them need to be adjusted to get the best signal, especially the HD. We were going to invest in a meter so we can do it ourselves easily instead of trying to find an installer (our original company...

Over the past few weeks, my DVR has been making a "chattering" noise and been seeing more breakup/video pauses. Someone suggested that it could be the past software update and that it might stop with this new update. Has anyone else had these problems or is my DVR dying?

The netgear 200 mbps is about $12 more than the 85 mbps ones. Is it worth getting the faster ones even though Directv only sends it down at 6? Maybe to "future proof"?

Thanks...how difficult is it to set up? Do you have to configure it on a computer or can you literally plug and play? Was looking at these units but are they overkill?

How easy is it to set up? Do you have to run it thru software and a computer?

(I originally posted this in the general forum...realized better served here) Hey folks... Setting up a way for my father to watch Directv On Demand. Problem is his box is on the far opposite side of the house than the wireless router and in a cabinet. So I thought the way to go were these...

Hey Folks... Need some advice here. My Directv Tivo unit finally bit the dust so I need to purchase a new one. Should I go ahead and get a R16 from somewhere online or wait and try to find an R22? Or is it that big of a deal... Thanks for any help...

There is a tree near it. Guess I will have to check again and might be time to trim....

My ESPN2HD is also breaking up and only one that really is. I am only getting about 50-55% signal strength on 119. Do I need to realign it?

I think I may be able to speak on this somewhat. I work in post production in Nashville and we do a ton of country music videos that air on CMT, which is operated under the MTV Networks. Even though we do alot of HD work, I am still amazed at how few videos are still only done in SD. Now I...

Hey Folks... I handle a private office viewing account for a number of folks. We are still not getting the new Movie HD channels (CinemaxHD for example) and some of the select HD channels. I call about twice a month and have been told by the end of the year we will get them. Call today...
