    Starz Available with Ultimate Package

    Just noticed that I am receiving Starz East in HD and SD. I'm not subscribed to the Starz Movie pack. Was wondering if this was added to the Ultimate Package or if it was just a mistake by AT&T/Directv?

    Directv 99(ca)

    I noticed that, although D14 is operational, I still have no 99(ca) satellite in the list on my receiver. What's up with that? Any input greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Directv14

    Noticed the other day on the signal strength meter, the 99 satellite had more transponders added. Right now they are showing zeros. Does this mean the newest Directv satellite is operational?

    Question about SWM system

    I have a splitter in the basement where the cable comes in from the dish. Can I move the PI down to that and hook it up to the splitter and then run RG6 cable to the wall mounts in each room where I have a receiver? Will that work?

    Question about SWM system

    Ok, here's another thought. If I were to put a structured media center in my basement for phone, whole home Ethernet, etc., would I be able to put a multiswitch in the media center for my Directv system? As I mentioned earlier, it's a SWM system. Is there a multiswitch available to carry an...

    That's true. But if it's the LNB, why would my service go out everyday at the same time? Any ideas.

    2:00-3:00 PM Signal Loss on Directv Slimline 3 with SWiM

    Today it was a clear day, temp was around 65. I just had Directv installed about 3 months ago. Certainly, the lnb isn't going bad already, is it? Haven't tried unplugging the Power inserter. Isn't the power inserter only connected to the HD DVR receiver, the HR24?
