Do you need to run a cable between this unit and the Genie ?

It has to be hooked up to your Directv home network thru the Swim just like any other dvr or hi def receiver.

No.... I does however need to be connected to Ur direct tv's coax cable coming from the wall

Yes you do. The room the client is installed in must have access to the DirecTV system via coax cable. Also note, you will not be able to connect this up yourself even though it's very simple. You will get a "You are not authorized to have an additional unit on this system, call Customer Service". It's a scam. They have to come out an connect it for you and charge you $49. Good luck. the unit works great though. Hope this helps.

My guess is no, but I'm not 100% certain. What I would do is search for Genie compatible openers, just to be on the safe side. Sorry I can't help more.

no, you need a hvl switch which has 3 toggle switch. use a 12/4 tray cable to wire the unit.

The one wire you refer to likely has two wires inside of it. This kit does not come with wires even though it says it does. It should work for all Genie's after the yr 2000 & possibly before that date. My old ones were squares & these worked just fine.

Yes, you need to be configured on SWM in order to do while home DVR/Genie. This switch, along with associated power supply and splitters provide that configuration. Note that there's also an 8 channel switch available if you don't need that many connections but I went with the 16 just for additional capacity if I need it...doubt that will ever be necessary but it's there just in case.

There was no code to enter to set up the opener. A press of a button on the compatible garage door opener on your ceiling emits a signal and the genie key chain remote automatically picked up the signal and began to function. If you are having problems with the automatic set up, you may not have a compatible unit. Our units were between 8-10 years old and worked perfectly. Following the manual's instructions shipped with the unit should work unless yours is not compatible.

I do not know. We have a Genie, and it works together just fine. You have to set the code to match the unit you already have, but that is easy.

I am not sure, to be honest if this will work for genie system. when I got this for my garage door. it did not work.

No, although the directions in the box say to connect it, you do NOT need to. There is no difference when you plug It in or keep it out.

Wireless genie mini is needed for every additional reception. I did not try it. You can ask your seller to inform you. I think it should be possible. Which does not mean that you or me we would be able to do it without help. Digital is becoming so complex, that you can not imply any general rule of use. I would advise you to be prudent.

Yes, we did and it works great. We have the genie in the living room and one of the minis in the bedroom. You just have to make sure you bring all the wires, splitter and the converter from your house into your RV.

Netgear Genie is free software used to interface with Netgear routers and modems. In order to use the Netgear Genie software one must own a Netgear router or modem. If the question is referring to compatibility with Netgear Genie and this particular modem the answer is yes, but only when directly connected to it with an Ethernet cable, since it is not a WiFi modem. This in my opinion defeats the purpose of interfacing this particular modem with Netgear Genie software since you can do the same interface with any internet browser. Network Genie is mostly for ease of use with WiFi routers. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what you mean by genie, but you will need to use the setup disc. are you using a pc or Mac?

Mine works when I'm 2 houses down the street from my own garage, so... 100 yards, give or take. You may want to check the antenna wire on your head unit if your Genie remote is working that poorly.

I don't.know either I had a problem getting it to work with direct tv so I went.out and bought a powetr supply but it made no difference . Bottom line it works great with my BD player and it worked with Charters box just not the Genie .

I really don't know--all I know is that it failed to work as a substitute for the Genie GPT90-1, even though the ads said that it would. Hope that helps.
