ad the c61k is wired vs wireless. so not that simple
add in the genie needs moved.

cs sometimes has 'issues'

Actually looking now while on hold since I questioned her about her explanation of 4K....Next to RB/INTL, I see "None selected"....
 
So she comes back from talking to her boss and will offer me C61K with HR54 upgrade at no cost and is saying she is waiving the $7 box fee for C61k.....should I go for it?
 
also note, you will most likely get a 2 year contract, and be stuck with this setup for that timeframe
 
... I'd avoid the HS17, get the 44 upgraded to the 54, and swap the C41 for the C61K. The RB3 is also no charge, and all of this should cost nothing (except the adding
of 4K content to your regular programming). Watch the tech when he swaps the lnb and make sure he performs the EIV test at the dish and YOU WANT TO SEE ALL
SEVEN CHECK MARKS on his AIM meter ... too many techs just hit and run
 

Thanks a lot for that advice. I appreciate it.
 
Or you can just let him do his job ...

You are not going to see the 7 check marks on his meter and you don't know what they mean anyways.
Just check your recvr numbers on the HR54 when the swap is done.

Lol. But the tech should install LBN 3 right?
 
There isn't any charge for 4k, not yet anyways.
