APPENDIX 4: HOW TO NETWORK YOUR HD DVR To use your DIRECTV HD DVR on your home network, you will need: A compatible DIRECTV Receiver, such as the DIRECTV HD DVR (models HR44, HR34, HR20 or later) or DIRECTV Plus® DVR (model R22) A broadband Internet connection, with a minimum connection speed of 750 kbps or higher (DSL or cable). A network router with an available Ethernet port, and/or wireless capability. The instructions for connecting to a network vary depending on whether or not you have Genie or Whole-Home DVR Service. Please see the appropriate sections that follow. NOTE: For the most current options and instructions to connect your receiver to the Internet, please visit directv.com/getconnected. If you have Whole-Home or Genie HD DVR service: Professionally Installed DIRECTV CINEMA Connection Kit: Schedule a professional installation appointment at directv.com/getconnected. Wireless Self-Installed DIRECTV Cinema Connection Kit: If you already connect to the Internet via WiFi, you can order this wireless kit at directv.com and connect yourself. If you do not have Whole-Home DVR or Genie HD DVR service: Wired: The fastest, most reliable connection. Your house must be wired for Ethernet, or you must run cables from a network router to your DIRECTV HD DVR. Wireless: This can be easiest method if you already connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi. However, wireless connections may be slower and somewhat less reliable than wired. You can order the Wireless DIRECTV CINEMA Connection Kit from directv.com, or at 1.800.531.5000. 155 APPENDICES
