This is the list of equipment I currently have:
Genie Gen 3, Model HR54-200
4 ea Wireless Genie Mini, Model C41W-500
Wireless Video Bridge, Model WVB2R0-34
Thank you for your assistance

The only upgrade available to you would be replacing the HR54 Genie receiver with a headless HS17 receiver, and four Genie client receivers. This would cause you to lose all of your recordings on the HR54, should you choose to use this route. Otherwise, you can simply add an additional Genie client to your account.
Route 1;
HR54 - stays the same
C41W - can be upgraded to C61W receiver or Gemini (C71KW) receiver
Wireless Video Bridge
(2) Additional Genie clients (wired:C61/C71KW Gemini, wireless:C61W/C71KW Gemini)
Route 2:
HR54 - upgraded to HS17 receiver (HS17 does not count toward a TV)
C41W - can be upgraded to C61W receiver or Gemini (C71KW) receiver
Wireless Video Bridge not needed with HS17 receiver
(3) Additional Genie clients (wired:C61/C71KW Gemini, wireless:C61W/C71KW Gemini)
