I just spoke with DirecTV and the agent claimed that while there are indeed two cables that connect to back of the DVR that only a single cable run to the place that the TV is is required. She said there was some kind of splitter that is connected between the wall jack and the DVR. This seems to be at odds with what others here on TOTV have said, where thay claimed that a completely separate cable run is required all the way back to the dish or some other central point. Was I being fed a bill of goods by the DirecTV agent?
If a second cable run is required, was this included in the free installation that they provide, or did you have to pay an additional amount for this?
