activating Signal Saver
The support pages on DirecTV's site appear to be down so if I click on the link about Signal Saver, I get a page with a confused looking guy on it.
Just wondering - if I don't see the option on my local channels to stream when I get the 771 error, does that mean I don't have the streaming option for those channels? Or is there something I need to set up? I have an HR44-500 with remote genies so I think the equipment supports it.
Thanks!

The HR44 should be able to use the SignalSaver feature, yes. Ensure that it is properly connected to the Internet (either wirelessly over wireless Wi-Fi or a wired Ethernet connection) and that the internet connection is adequate. Additionally, some channels are unable to be used with SignalSaver, specifically those that do not support the TV EVERYWHERE functionality.
