Yes, I believe it does. But you are better off getting the hr 23. I've had direct tv for many, many years with many different receivers and this was the only model I wanted to take and throw through the wall, it's that bad.

yes you can, Directv requires that you get a new card and send back the old one.

You will have to get a new access card from directtv. It is what links to your account

You'll have to ask the seller about all that. It should come with an access card tho, mine did.

You can't add an access code to the card. The card is scanned and your software stores the card's information in your system. Then you modify your software to recognize that card, and to grant the bearer of that card rights based on your security requirements.

Yes, mine did come with the access card. But it did not come with B band converters. You need two and Directv will send them to you for free if you call them and have an account.

Sorry, I marked "yes", but actually I don't think it does have a place for a "card". The guide says it takes a modem in the USB port OR "connect a Cable, DSL, or Satellite modem to the Blue WAN Ethernet port".

No access card port. You have to call Directv and pay about 6 bucks a month for it to work.

Call the number provided on the screen. They will want the Serial on the receiver as well as the included smart card #. Super easy installation!

No. I'm using it with another device but I had to call to activate it. I couldn't activate it online without a code from a phone.

make sure the seller provides you with all the numbers on the reciever- then call your satellite provider and they will let you know if you can use it- If you dont have a card its a $20.00 charge

Sorry I'm not sure. I've never used it as an access point. I only bought it to upgrade my desktop to 5g

Bought this on November 12, 2014.The box does come with a receiver and installation disk. You are set.

What I was told from directv is to get reciever ID first before purchase and check reciever Id with directv. They will tell you if that recieve can be activated.

Not sure I have the same model, but mine has a cable card slot. Comcast supplied the card which lets me connect to Comcast without needing to rent a set top box.

Every new Directv new receiver comes with a virgin access card which is ready to be activated once your system dish is aligned properly and you call DTV to activate your unit.

The client boxes don't need or use an access card. Directv still charges $6 a month for clients just as they do for additional receivers on any account. You have to have a hr34 or hr44 genie server for these to work as they are not stand alone receivers. Hope this helps.

Hi , this is an active box , you need to choose a non powered box to be able to use your receiver. Cervin wega has the box but non active. You could add a mixer to it if you like , but you do not have to , Let me know if you have more questions , or you could call us
