Can't receive 4k resolution.
We have a Genie2 wireless server system w 3 receivers. 1080p is the highest resolution listed and my tv is a Samsung smart 4k set.
How do I get 4k to my TV from the genie?

What model Genie Mini Client boxes do you have?
Only the C61K wired Mini Genie provides 4K channels.

I have 3 wireless genies. Model
Wireless Genie Mini.
Is wired the only way to display 4k?
They transmit 4k! I should be able to!
I'll wait for devices that can, shouldn't be too long 😁!

Right. Only the wired C61K Mini Genie provides 4K video. No idea when or if DirecTV will provide a wireless 4K Mini Genie.

@Dondrums.
First you need a wired 4k mini added to your current D*tv system Also you would need to add 4k service as well.
Currently their are no wireless 4k minis.

There is no wireless 4K option for DirecTV.
The only box that delivers 4K is a wired Mini Genie Client, model C61K.
Though there is no charge for 4K service, you must place a 4K order which requires tech install. TV must support HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2, and 60 FPS.
Even if all 3 of your clients (they are not receivers as the Genie-2 model HS17 forbids receivers) were the C61K, only two at the same time can be using a 4K feed.
If you recently used your free upgrade to the Genie-2 (HS17), then a later upgrade to 4K Clients would be the one-time lease cost of $99 each if before your next free upgrade.
