    HR34 question

    You're thinking the 44's. 34's have no internal DECA. CCK or broadband DECA must still be used for a 34. Also, just a heads up the HR44-200's have had call back and disconnection issues with the internals.

    Replacing LNB

    Still shocks me how many of the sidecar dishes are still in use. The lens covers on them get old and brittle. They start letting water (or dirt & dust) in and eventually degrade or wreck the internals on the LNB.

    Terrible experience with new DirecTV install....help!

    Glad they were able to get it resolved. I think a lot of people don't think about it, but when you went to a Genie you basically went from running 1 (or 2 tuners for a DVR) off that line to running 5. Definitely going to put a bigger strain on the coax. Added to that is if it went from a legacy...

    Directv HD new 2 room install question.

    Coax will likely come down from the dish to the splitter outside. From there they can run one line to each location.

    Moving a dish a few feet?

    You could perhaps get it going if it's an 18" standard dish. If it's a HD/Slimline and you don't have a AIMeter? Sorry but you'll want to call DTV.

    Agreed. The end result is the same though.

    HR34 question

    I can't say for absolute certainty on the HR34 but, if they function the same as the HR24's you should not hard wire the LAN cable to the receiver. By directly connecting the internet / LAN cable to the HR24's it stops the whole home connectivity with any other receiver. Again I'm not sure if...

    Terrible experience with new DirecTV install....help!

    $49.99 without the protection plan. Incorrect. Everything except the receivers is purchased by the customer when the customer signs up. But by signing the lease agreement they also agree to the care and maintenance of the receivers while they have them in their possession. I think this...

    Terrible experience with new DirecTV install....help!

    You can have up to 8 clients in a system. Can only run 3 at a time while the Genie is running. Believe you can run a 4th if the Genie is powered down and not recording anything. Rumor has it there has been a breakthrough and the 3 client at a time limit will no longer matter. Not sure how far...

    Terrible experience with new DirecTV install....help!

    My first question to those experiencing issues with the clients or the Genie install is, did the install technician replace or make sure that the coax running from the dish itself to the 21v power inserter (the phone techs call it the SWiM box) and subsequently to the Genie is good DTV 3gb...
