    DirecTV Stream / Local Channels / Cellular based ISP

    I asked Directv Stream this very question via chat, and they assured me that the locals were selected for you based on your Zip Code. I use both Starlink, (who gives me a New York public IP) and USCellular fixed cellular, (who gives me a Wisconsin IP). I'm in Eastern Maine. My Smart TV has no...

    On demand issues/HR54/700

    Interested in this. I can stream Netflix and Amazon ok, but Directv on-demand always takes overnight to get on the DVR. Never been able to watch without putting it on the DVR. Please post the solution, when you get it. Thanks, Eric

    Storm Fade - Alaska Dish

    Yeah, I missed that the first two times I read through the thread. Switching to SD during weather is your next best approach. That's what I do.

    DECA or Wireless CCK or Both?

    Hi Guys, I've looked at this off and on for quite some time and I am still not sure what I need. I have an HR21 with hardwire ethernet to my router and it works fine. Now I've added an HR24 in another room and want whole home DVR and Internet to stay working on HR21. I do have SWM and a...

    Try it plugged directly in to the wall outlet. No strip or surge protection. Certainly nothing to lose.

    OSD on Denon receiver not showing up after last directv update

    Thanks, Hutch1814. Doesn't look like the new version is not currently in the data stream. My receiver can't find it and the "Firmware Monitor" page doesn't show it active. Not sure if that's a reliable source or not though... I'll remain waiting!

    Bangor, ME will lose 2 locals Midnight

    Direct's website says they want a 300% increase. Looks like the Gainesville, FL market is also involved.

    OSD on Denon receiver not showing up after last directv update

    Ended up calling this afternoon. After the usual scripted resets, etc. I convinced the CSR to escalate my complaint to engineering. I had to point out that on Directv's own forum there are multiple users with HDMI problems and Denon AVRs after the latest update. She closed the the call by...

    OSD on Denon receiver not showing up after last directv update

    I've searched the other site and the Directv forum. I've concluded that if you are using a Denon AVR, HDMI does not work properly with the latest version of software for the DVRs. There are several posts on Direct's own forum about the problem. I suggest e-mailing Directv about the problem...

    Update 0x5cd

    It has caused my HR22-100 to be intermittent on the HDMI output to my Denon AV receiver. At power on or on channel change, the AV receiver may or may not detect HDMI. Worked fine on previous version. 2 resets so far, seems to be getting better. Work is keeping me away from it until the weekend...

    Strange Receiver Issue

    Just tell them it won't even boot up, and you need a new one. The returns go to a different location, so nobody ever checks.
