May try to get Directv again tired of Uverse can't get them to do anything with the boxes or freezing.
This is what I want 2 HD DVR and 1 SD box or another HD or HD DVR with Whole Home DVR set up with CinemaPlus.

This is what I have now.
1 Uverse main box for Uverse and Internet main box is upstairs with 1 Coaxial RG6 run to it all computers are run wirelessly to it 16 meg down 1.5 up.
With 1 whole house DVR and 2 HD boxes.
Whole house HD DVR box in living room with 1 RG6 Coax run to it.
1 HD box in bedroom down stairs with 1 RG6 Coax run to it.
1 HD box in bedroom up stairs with 1 RG6 Coax run to it.

Is what I'm wanting to do feasible without running any other cables?
Thanks
 
Yep, the coax is all you need - but the CP requires an ethernet connection from a port on your router to the CP adaptor, which then is connected by coax to the SWiM splitter. Usually, the CP adaptor is placed near your router w/an ethernet jumper, then from there by coax to the SWiM splitter - but the CP adaptor can actually be placed anywhere in-between the router port & splitter, depending on your particular wiring situation.

So the installer shouldn't have to run anymore coax?the last time he said he would have to run a coax from the Uverse RG to another room that had nothing hooked to it's coax run.
Thanks for the help.
 
Well,went ahead and ordered Directv again hopefully I will get a better installer this time.Just can't handle these Uverse boxes any more they did give me a $20 discount for 6 month then sent me to tech support spoke to Don from India still no fix for my problems.
