In NY and NC each county must provide collection points for electronic recycling.

Since there is competition between Optimum and T-Mobile Fiber (MetroNet) here, and most customers are clueless as to the technology behind their ISP connection, I have stopped recommending T-Mobile to my neighbors in order to cut down on the oversubscription, unless they ask for my opinion.

I removed a post here where I claimed that my Metronet (marketed as T-Mobile Fiber) system used Wave Division Multiplexing to provide for multiple homes on a fiber. That was based on a mistaken idea that I had formed based on previous experiences in data networking before I retired. In...

The HR24-100 is up on the satellite now. It's on TPN 25, which is normal for that model. They don't waste transponder bandwidth for old models that no longer get firmware updates very often.

That problem occurs with multiple Genie clients on a Genie server in a home installation. Open floor plans create the problem. The only way I have found to solve it is HDMI splitters.

I see 14.2 carrying Charge!

I just checked out what has happened to my local Sinclair owned stations in the Greenville-New Bern-Washington, NC DMA (known locally as Eastern North Carolina or ENC). I have an LCC, so I also get OTA signals in my DirecTV Guide. I can see and tune to the local FOX station on Satellite on...

If I remember right, it only did that when it had no connection to a Gemini server or a WVB. I haven't felt like resetting my Gemini to duplicate that.

I don't think you will be sacrificing picture quality. I use the Gemini remotes for my systems. It does a nice job of controlling my TV, Gemini and AVR receiver using IR for the devices that need it. I discarded my "universal remotes" long ago. I do have to use the AVR remote when I am not...

I have never done that, so I can't say for sure. I did once reset a satellite configured C71K-400 while totally disconnected, configured it for Wi-Fi, and it seemed to be trying to set up for DirecTV Stream. The may have updated the firmware so that doesn't happen anymore. The Solid Signal...

If you acquire a C71KW-400 that has been configured for use as a Satellite client, you need to reset it to factory settings by holding the red button down for at least 20 seconds.

I am a satellite customer, so I don't have the experience to answer your question. However, I just wanted to comment that I have heard that the Gemini Air has a more powerful processor than the original C71KW.

I replaced the attachment in Doctor J's post above with the one that he created this morning.

I can't remember my HR44 from 2010. The HR54 has slots in the bottom where you can insert a screw driver to release plastic clips holding on the top cover. The people that refurbish these things for DiecTV have a fixture with flat posts sticking up., The just press the unit down on the...

Do you know how to open a HR44 without breaking everything?

That's important info. I would say the hard drive belongs in the recycle bin. The Seagate drive you mentioned should work.

I don't think reset everything will erase the hard drive. The hard drive does not actually contain the operating system, which is a custom version of Linux. That is stored in non-volatile memory on the main board. Activation is based on the Access card of the Hr44. There is a diagnostics menu...

The TPN map for today has been posted in Post #1. At Gary's request, I am filling in for him today, since he would not be available until very late tonight. It's a little earlier today because I am on the East Coast, while Gary is normally on the West Coast.

In a corporate environment, "The Boss" doesn't have to. He has an IT staff to do it for him or her.

Have you tried doing a Menu restart of all devices? (Menu>settings>Help>Reset/Restart>All Devices) That may make the HS17 forget about the C61K. If that doesn't work, the only thing that I can suggest is to do a keyword search for CLEARMYBOX. That will clear a lot of settings, and restart...

If it does not show in the Remove Clients menu, where does it show up?

Having experience with regulating Internet access to and from a corporate network, it is highly probable that you are running into restrictions imposed by your employer. Their corporate network is their property and they have every right to limit it to business use. 35 years ago, when...

"Targetted" means that only selected satellite customers can see them. DTV marketing is trying to reach specific customers, and the customers typically see them as a splash screen when they turn on their receiver or client.

I have 200Mbps up and down fiber here in the lowest population density county from here to Texas. I could have more speed, but that is all I need. I still prefer satellite to streaming. OTA is not an option. Hamilton County, NY has less than 5000 year round residents, less than 3 people per...

I use DIRECTV satellite and streaming. Some of the things I want to watch are only on streaming, but I prefer the satellite experience more.
