Wireless and DECA
I am currently running MRV without SWM or DECA's. I was part of the Beta and received permission to run Whole Home DVR unsupported from Directv. I use a Dual Band Airport Extreme as my Router and 3 Airport Express Network Extenders hooked up to our Three Directv boxes, one of which is the DVR. We have FIOS for interent which is a MOCA system.
In the back of our house where the signal is not great the MRV hangs up on HD shows but runs fine on SD. Common issue with wireless systems.
I was wondering if I installed a DECA on this one box (H21-100) would the network find it's way into this one box.
Any help would be appreciated.

No. That DECA won't do anything without a SWM dish.

And even if you had SWiM you'd need at least two DECAs one for the receiver and one to connect to your network somewhere. MOCA and DECA use essentially the same technology but a completely different set of frequencies, so the two won't interoperate if that's what you're thinking.

While running some Cat5 Ethernet cable may require some work, it produces a rock solid MRV system and it's cheap.
