Movies and programming that I don't already get on the channels I pay for. Are you getting something free besides that?

What is the deal with Direct TV On Demand? 3.99 for Karate kid? I thought there were supposed to be thousands of free movies but the only ones I see are from the channels I already have and could more easily record them than download from the internet. Everything else costs $$$. I was...

I am in the process of doing the same thing. I am wondering if you have 2 HDDVR's hooked up on whole house DVR do you actually see 4 things being recorded on each DVR's recording guide? (2 from the one you are looking at and 2 from the other HDDVR that is connected) Thanks, Jeff

I have an HR21 for our HDTV in the living room and a standard box for the SDTV in the bedroom and yes the standard box is faster. Prob about 2X faster changing channels. Jeff

Yes, 5 channel SWM in the basement. Both tuners work on the DVR. Jeff

I did get the slimline dish but installer said SWM built in is about 2 months away. I have 4 wires from dish to basement then 1 wire to HDDVR in living room and 1 wire to SD standard reciever in bedroom from there. Jeff

Got the new reciever today and installed it and no more clicking noise! Very happy so far with programming and PQ with Direct. Customer service so far has been flawless. Jeff

If I am not mistaken the hard drive is in operation all the time unless the unit is unplugged. Just rechecked the box - brown cardboard with direct tv emblem on the top left and HD DVR in big black on the bottom. No white box and no blue tape, although that is how the standard reciever...

It came in a standard brown cardboard box with "HD DVR" printed in black on the top of the box. My standard reciever came in a white box. By the way, the unit makes the clicking noise even with the power off. Jeff

Just called tech support and they are sending me another HDDVR which should be here in 2 days. Tech support thinks installer may have dropped it. So far other than the dvr noise we are very pleased. The install was very good and clean and he had to wire through a crawl space so we tipped him...

Continious clicking noise that is even audible with TV volume turned up. The clicking did stop a couple times during boot-up but ever since it is continous. I think I am going to call it in and see if I can get a replacement. Jeff

The record and playback functions work fine. But is it normal for the HR21-100 to make a fairly loud clicking noise while powered on? It is setting next to my 622 which is comparably silent. I mentioned it to the installer who said it was fan noise and I would get used to it. Sounds more...

Hey guys, I am getting Direct installed today and the installer tells me he is using Directs new technology requiring only 1 wire to the DVR instead of 2 as standard (for dual tuner install). He tells me this is his first install with this type setup. I will let you all know how it goes. Jeff

Is that the same as Choice Extra? Thanks, Jeff

Do RSN's come with the Plus HD DVR pack? I do not see them listed on the Direct TV site for this package. Thanks, Jeff

Actually I believe that is the norm. Mine has also been flawless for 14 months and running.

Hey JAC, I have my install sched for march 9 and was just wondering what you think of the service and the DVR for Direct TV. Right now I am on the Dish Network HD only pack which is a bit limited in programming for us. But if the HR21 DVR has issues like I have read in some posts we might...

Well after messing with almost every damn setting on that router I found out the problem was in my DSL modem. After I disabled the modem firewall I can get a NAT connection with NAT type 3. Now I will try and get it to NAT type 2. Jeff

Hey guys, I just got this router too but it will not work with my PS3. I am getting a NAT failure with it. When I go to test the connection I get: Obtain IP address SUCCEEDED Internet connection SUCCEEDED Playstation Network SUCCEEDED UPnP...

Thanks for the heads up! Can you recommend a good one for me then? Perhaps the Western Digital WDG1U5000 My Book Essential Edition 500 GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive? Thanks, Jeff

You can find that information at dishnetwork.com under the "our products" tab then select which type equip your looking for. There is a pdf link to manuals at the bottom of each eq description there also. A good place to go from there is CNET.com where you can get unbiased editor reveiws of...

Hi, I'm looking to purchase an external hard drive for my VIP 622. Does anyone own the: Seagate FreeAgent Pro - 750GB, 7200 RPM, USB 2.0, eSATA, External Hard Drive - ST307504FPA1E2-RK - Includes 5 Year Warranty!! I can get it for 165.00 at buy.com. Does this seem like a decent deal...

I just signed up yesterday with the following promotion plus 50 dollar referal from my dad. I am going to keep Dish Network and have both providers for a while. Welcome to DIRECTV _2007 Q4 Offer 047 B5712/471 $0.00 PLUS HD DVR P0000063640000000011 $0.00 HD Access_Tier 1...

Yeah, thats kind of what I'm thinking too. What I might do is just get the 50 dollar Linksys that Icewolf got and use it until the N thing pans out. Right now my 6 year old Dlink DI524 has NAT problems with my PS3 resulting in no connection to the PS network. Still works great for my...

Glad you are happy with your new router. Did you look into the N draft routers by chance? I just got a new Dell M1530 and it has N wireless so I was thinking about getting one of the N drafts. Anyone else using an N draft router with their PS3 with sucess? Thanks, Jeff
