I am having an issue with my TV in the living room. One of the suggestions was to try a receiver (not the DVR) from another room. So if I move the receiver from the bedroom to the living room do I just connect it? Or are there other things I need to do?

We are remodeling our home and working on hiding the DirecTV cables behind the drywall. We would like to add two ports in our walls so when we decide to rearrange the living room we aren't stringing coax cable all around it. We've added a splitter to run the cable one way, and then the other from

Was wanting to be able to rearrange my living room called to have another line installed across the room but was told that I can’t have 2 in the same room because they can’t but a splitter for us to be able to have 2 lines in one room is this true. We believe he just didn’t want to climb in the atti

I have an HD-DVR set up in my living room and an HD receiver set up in my master bedroom.   The bedroom receiver is working perfectly, however the living room HD-DVR is pixalating every few seconds on all channels.  The pixalating seems worse on standard def channels than HD channels.   I have gone

My genie in my bedroom(not my main receiver in the living room) disconnects itself, like it has a short.  I have to joggle the cord in the back about once a week to get it to work.  Is there a chance I could get a replacement genie?
