Ethernet Connections

[caudexman]

Can you have a 2nd receiver on your network with only the ethernet network connecting the main receiver to the 2nd one and be able to get at both recorded and live content on the 2nd receiver?
Does this work with non-dvr models too?
What about the main receiver being a dvr and the 2nd one not?
Will it be able to manage and access dvr content?

Thank you.

No. Any receiver will require coax to the sat for activation, authorizations, guide, and live programming. Ethernet will ONLY playback off other receivers hard drives.

Also cannot manage content to an extent, can delete shows, and an H series can schedule shows, but can't manage todo lists for example.
