The Directv unit works fine, but after two days, I have to re-boot it to be connected to my wireless system. I have redone the installation.

The only time my unit rebooted since I've had it was when the electric power went out in our area.

mine worked fine until they installed the genie. they have been here 4 times still not working. there is a facbook page to try to get directv to fix this prob. if you have the genie it probably willn't work!

I gave up on mine, got tired of rebooting the unit, so Directv sent a tech out to my home and it kept dropping the signal for him too. So the tech hard-wired a small box into the system running off my router and I now have internet to every tv in the house.

My TV link works well most of the time. However some times it is garbled. Most works fine.

I have a cable modem and I occasionally have quality problems. I haven't figured out yet if the trouble is with my network, the player or Netflix. Sometimes I'll get a message saying that the connection is too poor to even connect, so I click OK, reconnect, and generally it loads at high quality. Or sometimes it will load at medium quality so I'll stop the playback so it will load again. More often than not it loads the second time at high quality. It's kind of quirky. I can't answer your question, but thought I'd share my experience. Oh, and I have a 46" Samsung tv.

Check with DirecTV first but I think that you could get it to work in a degraded mode (see my review). If you add the two components that I mention in my updated review then it will probably work normally or you could get the kit that already includes those components. The pleasant advantage that I have discovered having added the two components is that they are easily interchanged with a quick release mechanism and the inexpensive alignment tool included with this kit makes finding the satellites extremely easy with out the need of an expensive $400 tool required to do the same thing with the SWiM model. Anyway it should work, but I have not tried the HR44/200 so I cannot confirm it. Check with DirecTV first but I think that you could get it to work in a degraded mode (see my review).

Tried that, it really didn't work for me. Router worked amazingly well for 3 weeks or so, then I started having to reset it about once a week, now it's just plain stupid, I can sit here and watch it lose the signal and regain it 2 or 3 times a minute during the worst episodes. Calling tech support was a joke, they sent someone out to replace the wireless board in my Vizio TV! I'm very happy with my Vizio TV, but as soon as I get my new ASUS router delivered, this Vizio router's going to the recycling bin.

I purchased this TV in March 2015. It would find the wifi service ID however it would fail after entering the password multiple times. I changed the connection to Wired and hooked up an ethernet cable from the router. Went to the Menu and software update area where I saw that the firmware on the TV as it was shipped was several versions behind. Once I installed the latest update via the same wired connection successfully and then proceeded to change the Internet Connection to Wireless in settings, attempted reconnection to my wireless connection and Voila, it established the wireless connection in the first try.

This will work for you...I have the same setup. Just follow the instructions in the kit. It will take some time for all the DirecTV shows, movies, contents to download but after that you're ready to view all DoD stuff.

I'm sorry; I don't really know, though my TV is 15 years old (a big clunker) and I have Direct TV satellite. I was able to find several repair shops in my city (Phoenix) and wound up talking with the people there - wish I had started with them, since they had refurbished units cheaper than what I paid online. Good luck!

Yes, provided you have a wireless router in the house or access to a Wi-Fi network. When you connect this to your DirecTV receiver, it will look for available wireless networks and then you enter the security key. Really very simple to hook up and get working!

I have the same t.v. I have my direct t.v. satellite box hooked into my receiver through an optical cable. There is a delay when I switch channels on the sat box but when the audio comes on, it is in sync with the tv. You might want to try it that way if its an option. I like it.

Try asking your question at http://www.dbstalk.com/forum/54-directv-installationmdu-discussion/ I think you may need to provide some more details. Good luck!

router loaded ok(CD) worked great for one day, then needed repeated restarts. Bought the "refurbished" maybe that's the trouble. Need to research the troubles with it. If there is a fix, should fix b4 shipping

I don't know about directv. I only have Comcast and it did not work with their cable boxes.

It will be for a day. I used it to stream to Google TV. Beware, gone through two already. Firmware continues to need to be reset. Each last about a week on my travels...
