I am moving into a new home this weekend and have a couple of questions and recommendation requests. Here is the setup:
1) House is pre-wired with RG6 in 5 rooms, but all off of a single feed.
2) No land line service, but jacks are available.
3) Going to use Cox HSI and DirecTV
4) We are only hooking up the DirecTV in 2 rooms (Master Bed has HD Receiver and Family Room has HD DVR). Computers are used throughout home.
4) Both installs are on Saturday afternoon
5) HDTV has both built-in WIFI and an ethernet port along with HDMI inputs
Here are the questions:
1) Can these items (HDTV, DirecTV, and internet) be connected and if so, what is the best way to connect them?
2) What type of router(s) should I purchase?
3) Is there a way to use the existing cable run and feeds for both services?
4) Should I just let the techs fight it out?
Your comments are greatly appreciated.
