  1. TV Show Talk
    It looks like episode 5 of Hit The Road, guest starring Richard Dreyfuss, was dropped. It was supposed to be on tonight, and a repeat of episode 4 was shown. And, episode 5 is no longer in the listings on my DVR. I suspiect that it was dropped due to sexual misconduct allegations against...
  2. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Thought I would report on the end of the story: I followed the recommendation of inkahauts and swapped my oldest DVR for a Genie HR44 and my receiver for a Genie Mini. Everything worked as described. My only issue has been getting my devices registered with the Mobile DVR service. Some of...

    Inkahauts, thanks so much for your complete answer! It makes sense to me, and I'll follow all of your recommendations, including the Ethernet connection.
  4. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Because of the discontinuation of the GenieGo, I got the notice from DirecTV about needing to upgrade my DVRs. I have three DVRs (2 HR24s and 1 HR21) and one receiver (H24), all connected via wired Ethernet in my house. I have Whole Home DVR and watch shows in all locations from the three...
  5. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I can confirm that mine worked when truly out of home.
  6. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Mine is working, too! They must have fixed the problem. Yahoo!
  7. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I had a call back tonight from DirecTV's case management (support) group. They said that they believed they had the problem fixed with authorizing the app on my Windows 10 PC. And, indeed, I was able to authorize both of my Windows 10 PCs which I could not do before. The rep also told me that...
  8. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I have both of these issues if the new devices are Windows 10 PCs. I was able to register an IPad, which seems weird in light of everything else. Only 3 total devices registered, including one that I am trying to re-register with a new app installation. I have worked with DirecTV support and...
  9. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Definitely not my issue. I don't use my ISP's router. I have FIOS in bridge mode connected directly to my own router which I manage.
  10. DIRECTV Connected Home
    After spending a few hours on the phone with technical support, no one can find a setup issue with my configuration. I think it is more likely that this just doesn't work right now.
  11. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I am at exactly the same point with tech support. They are acting like it's a rare bug that only I am seeing and that Engineering will have a solution for me soon, but all the background here is leading me to believe that they are shifting service and don't have a short term solution.
  12. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Since I don't have any Genie DVRs (just older HR20 and HR21s), does this mean that I won't be able to have this feature anymore? And, that the GeneiGo box is now worthless? I guess I could upgrade to new DVRs, but what will that cost? And, what about all the recordings on my current DVRs...

    That also shows that ports 8082 and 8083 are open for me.
  14. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I have Verizon FIOS, but am not using the router that came with it. The modem is in bridge mode. I verified that I am forwarding ports 8082 and 8083 via canyouseeme.org.
  15. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Like others, I've started having problems with my GenieGo (the version with the three blue LEDs). I have done the 30-second reset multiple times on the GenieGo. Neither of my Windows 10 PCs can register themselves with the GenieGo and can't access it at all. My iPad Mini can access it. I...
  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    DirecTV has confirmed that this issue is a known software compatibility issue. All indications are that a release very soon will fix it.
  17. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I thought that my problem was bad hardware, but my replacement receiver has exactly the same problem. DirecTV sent me an H23-600 to replace my H21-200. I installed it yesterday, and it seemed to be working fine. I failed to notice the version of software it was running. This morning, the box...
  18. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I have 3 HD DVRs that all received 0x0736 a few days ago and seem to be working fine. My H21-200 HD receiver received 0x4736 last night and is not working. It boots up and starts playing the current channel. But, within a couple of minutes, the unit freezes and no longer responds to the...
  19. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Just want to report that since I set up a reserved UP address for the GenieGo on my router, Out of Home access has worked very reliably on my iPad.
  20. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I can say after using this for a couple of days that this has been the case for me. Now that I reserver the IP address for the GenieGo box on my router, things are much more stable and the DVRs show up consistently.
