yea tried all that. works great in IR. I like RF because I have kids and animals that get in the way of the DVR. Not in another room or anything like you are doing. when I have an hour to kill I am going to call D*.

Thanks for the input Daddy Dithers. It did not help though. :-(

I called D* is November and just asked specifically about getting an HR24. She said it was $199. I asked can she do better on the price, she put me on hold for about 5 min, came back and said if I bought right now, they could drop it to $99, but I had to have it pro installed for another $20. I...

yesterday. noticed today that there was a software update this morning. 0x452. Hoped it would help. nope. guess I will call D*.

Which of my replies implied you don't know anything? If one Did, I apologize. I was asked if I replaced batteries and if I rebooted. I replied I had done both. You asked what type of reset I did, I said I did a soft boot, you asked for a definition of a softboot. You took this off topic with...

caps don't necessarily drain when power is removed. coming from an electronics repair background in the US AF I had to drain caps with a shorting rod on several solid state devices to make sure they were drained before I laid my bare hands on the circuit board. On most, I aways had some...

I didn't know we were debating which was better.

Disagree all you want. RBR, removes power momentarily from the CPU, same as pulling the plug. There is no "are you sure you want to do this" error message when you hit the red button is there? Want to know why? You do not give the CPU the option, because you have removed it's power source.

pulling the plug is also a hard boot.

yep. acknowledged that in the second sentence if my reply.

jimbo your reply made no sense. other than to reboot you have made no suggestions or offered if you have experienced this issue. I replied that I did in fact reboot, both by power cycling and via soft reboot. you for some dumb reason wanted to debate rebooting terminology rather than help. No...

well this thread is a waste of bandwidth isn't it? lol.

In the world of any computer system, using a reset button or power switch is a hard reboot. Using the system's menu or command line interface to reboot is commonly known as a soft reboot.

reboot via menu is a soft reboot.

new batteries. yes. soft reboot. yes. still sloooowww! :-) thanks guys!

Anyone else have a very slow response from the remote when in RF mode. When i switch it over, I have to hold a button for about 5 seconds for the DVR to respond. The light on the DVR doesn't even blink to acknowledge it got he command from the remote. I tried StoneCold's thing of disabling the...

I get the Columbus Fox channel and I get the same thing. Always seems to happen when when of my shows is on! When it's just casual viewing of reruns it works great! :-(. I have called and complained several times but never get a follow up from DirecTV.

That's interesting. I had uverse up until 2 days ago and running side by side, I did not have the audio problems.

Anyone else in Columbus, OH area have audio problems on FOX HD?

My wife found an online add to through MyPoints too where they are offering a free HD DVR. So I think I should have pressed a little harder.

So I had D* for 8 years. Loved it. I worked a for company owned by AT&T. Found out I could get a 49% discount off of U-verse. So with the U400 package, 6 meg Inet and unlimited local/LD VOIP costs me about $80 a month. But you get what you pay for I guess. I don't mean to turn this into a...

I have done work at some of the local Tv stations in Columbus, OH and Cincy. They each had a DS3 (45meg) circuit to a DirecTV datacenter in Colorado. I didn't do work on those circuits, I asked and was told that.

AT&T will provide an 8 port Netgear 10/100/1000 switch free of charge if you ask, along with 2 USB wireless adapters.

ditto

I'm scheduled for install on Oct 16th. As an employee of a company owned by AT&T, I get the employee discount. I can get U400, Elite INET and u-voice for $69 a month! I am going to run it side by side with DirecTV for a few month. Does everyone still have issues with VPN? There are 5 other...
