Finished on H23, HR20-100 & HR23-700.

I noticed there is a new (or at least I did not see it b4) item under location, called multi-room. Shows other DVRs networked for MVR. Does not show up on the H23, only the DVRs. All working well so far! I will have to do the HR21, when my wife is not watching it! ;)
 
Probably a problem with my network, not with the CE... new network. My downstairs HR22 wont get an IP, and for some reason my Linksys is only giving it one for 60 seconds (i can see it counting down from 60 seconds in the DHCP clients table). Meanwhile everything else that is connected is fine. Just can't get anything but the default 169 IP.

Just strange, it's picking up the mac address of my HR22, but not the name of it, like my other HR22 that says DirecTV-HR22-gibberish.
 
HR21 updated. Tried H23 a dozen times and it will not look for software. I am going to try unplugging it for a while.
 
Ok, starting downloading now.....had to wait for the UFC to finish...can't believe that big fat Roy Nelson won....

Update, have it on both HR2*'s so far so good....

Seems to be a good stable one, remote response is much better than last week, less double entries or delayed entries.

I was actually going to say the opposite, at least for my HR23. Much slower response than the last CE. The others seem about the same. Today, my HR23 actually seemed to lock up, taking no input from the remote or front panel, while still having a picture. A RBR fixed the issue, however the response time is still quite slow.
