    Alright guys, I've got another problem. I've got directtv in my house and in my parents house which is a quarter mile away or whatever. Before we upgraded we were able to get it at both houses with no problem. I guess you can say that we were cheating the system. :thumbsup:. Now that we have the new genie mini pieces of crap the house with out the main genie wont get shit. Please tell me someone has a way to fix this.:fingerscrossed:

    Well you could do a sling box. Or ask the provider for different style of boxes.

    Sling box you hook up the Gini where the main house is then hook up sling box to it. Then you have Apple TV or Ruku or what ever you can have apps on and dl the sling app and watch tv. It's a pain but it works

    You can get them at bestbuy but I'm telling you there a pain to hook up. Done a few. Google it.. read up on it. Good internet connection is required.

    paying for cable is over rated. They pay an arm and a dick just to get 100 basic and local channels. If i can cheat them why not, they are cheating many of other people out there out of their money.

    If you were paying your fair share, it wouldn't be so expensive for everyone else.

    Stock for. Ow
    So thanks to AT&T I became a Directv Installer

    If you've got a genie, and clients there's no way to cheat the system like you use to. The clients rely on that genie for everything

    You could cheat it by changing boxes though. Put the genie plus how many ever clients you need in one house. The other house you need to get h25 boxes for.(problem with this is your gonna get High def but no dvr) You'll have to specifically request these boxes. Your also gonna need somebody to put you up another slimline dish at the 2nd house plus a power inserter and a slimline splitter

    There trying to make it as hard as possible to cheat the system :thumbsup:

    In order for both tv's to work with sling, don't you need both tv's on the same channel?

    can't have one channel here and another channel there?

    ...too much shit to list.
    Because illegal activity is not condoned on this site. Real smart post considering the large LEO members base this forum has.
