Upgrade to HR34, what do I need?

[scottt]

I am currently paying the $10 HD fee (and getting that credited back for 12 months), and I have lifetime TiVo service (now called Advanced Receiver).

If I upgrade to an HR34, will I be forced to also pay for MRV (Whole Home) even though I don't want it?

I'll need to be upgraded to SWM (to support the HR34). Anything else to worry about?

Thanks!

No, you won't need to pay the $3/mo Whole Home DVR (MRV) fee.

What DirecTV equipment do you currently have?

Two HR20-700's and a HR23-700. Connected with a 5LNB dish and 8 port multiswitch. Receivers are hooked up to ethernet for networking.
