Fee Genie?

I got a flyer for free upgrade to Genie. Does it just plug into my existing configuration or does it require other 'upgrades / changes' to my hardware and connection?

You need a SWM dish and most likely a tech visit to install it.  It will start/extend a 2 year service commitment.

What are the models of each box you have now? Though the Genie is not a drop ship plug and play upgrade, it depends on your existing setup if there are any major changes or not.
