  1. General Satellite Discussion
    I have been thinking of doing this except I haven't been able to access the DirecTV site or apps since AT&T took over and I am worried about not being able to access the DirecTV Stream apps in the same way. Has anyone noticed any problems like that?
  2. DIRECTV Connected Home
    It is hooked up and let's me see the playlist but not the series manager. I thought it was an option too.
  3. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I have run in to a problem and I am hoping you can help. The installer didn't let me see my series manager on my hr24 before changing everything over. Is there a way to see it without it being hooked up to the satellite connection?
  4. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Okay guys. I took the free upgrade. No payment of any kind, just the 24 month agreement. A HS17, three c61k's, two c61's, and a c61w. Of course the LNB is being changed out too. Thanks for all your help. I know 4K content isn't readily available but it's nice to not have to worry about it down...
  5. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Do we get a service charge for an extra box now that the server is headless and we will need a new box to take the old ones place? I would be going from a genie, a hd dvr receiver and 3 mini's to the server and three 4k mini's, two mini's and one wireless mini. To me it seems like the headless...
  6. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I currently have a HR54, HR24, C61 and two C51's. I need a wireless mini and when I called in I was offered a free upgrade to it and the Genie 2. What are the downside's and upside's of this upgrade? we have three 4KTV's in the house too. If I get the Genie 2 it is my understanding I will need...

    I hooked it up to the wireless and it seems things are working. Thanks. I do find this odd because my in home network is 1Gbps as well as my internet but my wireless is nowhere near that. This just shows that DirecTV's way of using coaxial for internet slows things down.
  8. DIRECTV Connected Home
    No. Everything is hooked up via RG6 run throughout the house right now. The only Ethernet connection to the DirecTV system is the main one that is connected to the router. I forget what the heck it's called, broadband Ethernet to coax kit? All the RG6 connections terminate in the same closet as...
  9. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I have AT&T GigaPower internet and the whole house is Ethernet Cat 6 ran to each room with Gigabit switches. Right now the Genie hr54 is connected via DECA or MOCA or whatever it's called right next to the modem. There are 2 HD mini's and the 4k Mini as well as a HR24. No matter what when we try...

    Whole Home Network is on and working, I can stream from the HR54. I have tried the red button reset and it still isn't working. When I go to on demand I get the message "1000 (DTVA) is currently not available."

    Problem has been rectified. Please delete.
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Thanks Everyone. Turned out the CSR didn't order the 4k stuff. It has been remedied and they will be out some time this week to install. We will have a new Genie that does 4k and a new 4k Genie Mini along with the HR22, 2 Genie Mini's and a Genie Go.
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    So we have been with DirecTV for a long time and I setup an install through the movers deal number. I told them I have 2 new TV's with 4K displays and I would like them to show 4K DirecTV content. We have a HR44 Genie, HR22, and a Genie Mini. We will need 2 more Mini's and like I said we would...
  14. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Building a new home and want to pre-wire for a DIRECTV genie hr44, a hr22, and 3 wired slaves. The satellite dish will have to go on the left side of the house, as if looking at it from the front. We want the genie in the family room, the hr22 in the master and the slaves on the other 3...
  15. DIRECTV Connected Home
    The only other pertinent information you may need is the router model because I already told you both directv models. The router is a Netgear r6250, the port forwarding was already added to it. The firewalls have already been set to allow the geniego software work and the firewall has also...
  16. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Unable to add any PC to GenieGo but Android works fine. I have a HR44 connected to the network via MOCA, I have a HR22 connected via MOCA, the GenieGo is connected directly to the router. I have a brand new HTC One m8 that will play the DVR's in the house but I can't stream outside the home, I...
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I have charter and download ranges from 15Mb to 60Mb and uploading ranges from 2.5Mb to 5Mb.
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    So, other than the difference in transcoding the 2 devices are very similar? If I want to stream, not put a show on my device, will the transcoding matter? I didn't pay for the genieGo and I didn't sign any contract extension so I guess I could just try it and if it doesn't work return it to them.
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    It also doesn't seem to be what I thought it was. I was looking for a way to stream my content on my dvr.
  20. DIRECTV General Discussion
    So basically the GenieGo I just received today is outdated? Should I return it and wait for the GenieGo 2?
