HR24 not reading the HR20's

I have an HR24 in a second bedroom and just realized that it's not reading my other DVR (HR20's).  I thought my installation guy said the HR24 will work with the HR20 so I can access the DVR recordings of my other 2 receivers.

 

Thanks for any help.

It should work.  Did DirecTV install Whole Home DVR for you?  Check to be sure that there is no ethernet cable connected to the HR24's ethernet jack.

Yes, directv did install this for me.  I checked and I don't have an ethernet cable plugged into the back of the receiver.  When I go into the settings it says "no network DVRS found".

Try resetting each DVR/Receiver using the red button behind the front panel access card door.  See if they can "rediscover" each other.

Does the HR20 have a DECA (see pic) module attached to the coax line before it's attached to the sat input post?
