Network DVR and Receiver with ethernet cable
I was wondering if I had a really long ethernet cable could I just run it directly from one DVR to one receiver without any other special equipment or router or anything? My receivers are not connected to any internet connection.
if (typeof(lpcurruser) == 'undefined') lpcurruser = ''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt') && document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value != '') { lpcurruser = document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value = ''; } if (typeof(lpcurrpass) == 'undefined') lpcurrpass=''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt') && document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value != '') { lpcurrpass = document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value = ''; } var lploc=1;var lponlyfill=null;if (lploc == 3) { if (document.getElementById('loginField')) { document.getElementById('loginField').value = lpcurruser; } if (document.getElementById('passwordField')) { document.getElementById('passwordField').value = lpcurrpass; } }lpcurruser = ''; lpcurrpass = '';if (typeof(lpcurruser) == 'undefined') lpcurruser = ''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt') && document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value != '') { lpcurruser = document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value = ''; } if (typeof(lpcurrpass) == 'undefined') lpcurrpass=''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt') && document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value != '') { lpcurrpass = document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value = ''; } var lploc=1;var lponlyfill=null;if (lploc == 3) { if (document.getElementById('loginField')) { document.getElementById('loginField').value = lpcurruser; } if (document.getElementById('passwordField')) { document.getElementById('passwordField').value = lpcurrpass; } }lpcurruser = ''; lpcurrpass = '';if (typeof(lpcurruser) == 'undefined') lpcurruser = ''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt') && document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value != '') { lpcurruser = document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value = ''; } if (typeof(lpcurrpass) == 'undefined') lpcurrpass=''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt') && document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value != '') { lpcurrpass = document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value = ''; } var lploc=1;var lponlyfill=null;if (lploc == 3) { if (document.getElementById('loginField')) { document.getElementById('loginField').value = lpcurruser; } if (document.getElementById('passwordField')) { document.getElementById('passwordField').value = lpcurrpass; } }lpcurruser = ''; lpcurrpass = '';if (typeof(lpcurruser) == 'undefined') lpcurruser = ''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt') && document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value != '') { lpcurruser = document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value = ''; } if (typeof(lpcurrpass) == 'undefined') lpcurrpass=''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt') && document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value != '') { lpcurrpass = document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value = ''; } var lploc=1;var lponlyfill=null;if (lploc == 3) { if (document.getElementById('loginField')) { document.getElementById('loginField').value = lpcurruser; } if (document.getElementById('passwordField')) { document.getElementById('passwordField').value = lpcurrpass; } }lpcurruser = ''; lpcurrpass = '';

That will work. You will still need to get MRV (aka Whole Home DVR) activated on your account and pay a $3/month fee for the service.

pete,
I assume you understand that while that may work for MRV, it will not work for OnDemand, Directv2PC or Media Share, all great features that many of us use every day.

Yes I do. As long as it works for MRV that is the main thing I am looking for.
Thanks very much for your advice and quick responses I appreciate it.

Just curious about what subnet mask and IP are you using for the DVR and receiver? I want to separate mine from the internet.
