Stream via Internet using C71KW-400

I am a satellite customer.  I use the DirecTV app on Roku to stream in some rooms of my house and sometimes when I travel.  Works ok.  Can I also use a C71KW-400 for the same purpose and would I get any extra functionality such as using the number buttons on the remote, etc?

Interesting. Have you tested it yourself? Or can you link where this info was found?

Man I'd just like to tell you this DID work. When I mean we've been looking for the past few months on a way to do this, I really mean it. I appreciate your answer on this matter. If you don't mind, I'll share the solution around so others can take advantage of this as well.

I should mention that you will need either a video bridge to go wireless or a BB Deca to connect the Gemini to coax cable.

So how did you originally discover the method?

@detuch254 From a DirecTV tech., although I don't know that it is common knowledge even amongst the techs.
