Appendix 2: How to Network Your HD DVR (High-Definition DVRs) 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 (model 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 The instructions for connecting to a network are different depending upon whether you have Whole-Home DVR Service. Please see the appropriate sections that follow. Note: For the most current options and instructions to connect your DVR to the Internet, please visit directv.com/getconnected. If you have Whole-Home DVR service: Professionally Installed Internet Connection Kit: Schedule a professional installation appointment at directv.com/ondemand. This is the only option available for customers with Whole-Home DVR service. If you do not have Whole-Home 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. 156 DIRECTV® DVR USER GUIDE
