Just got my Whole Home service installed yesterday. Previously I had my HR21-700DVR hooked into the ethernet port into a gaming wireless port (connected wirelessly to my home network) to get OnDemand. I had my Samsung BDp1590 Blu-Ray player connected to the DVR using the other ethernet port.
Since the install, this connection no longer works for connecting my Blu-Ray player to stream (Pandora, netflix, etc).
Any recommendations without going out an purchasing additional equipment?
Yes, that's the DECA. I'm confused...You first said, "The D* Tech has the port from the gaming adapter running into the DVR's #1 port, thus no way to connect it to the Blu-Ray that I'm aware of." The DECA goes to the HR.
I'm going from memory here after looking at the set up last night... but there are 2 DECAs. One was plugged into the gaming adapter (I assume to get my home network connectivity). And the DVR's #1 port was occupied by an ethernet cable coming from one of the DECAs.
Again not looking at it currently so I'm not completely confident on other specifics.

Yes, there should be 2 DECAs. Easiest solution might be to buy a inexpensive switch. Plug the gaming adapter, DECA, and Blu-Ray player into the switch.

If that switch is connected to your home network, then no you do not. I assumed that you were using the gaming adapter because you didn't have any wired access to your home network in that area.
