If you have to reboot every week or 2 something else is going on. Could be bad LNB, bad swm module, poor signal, corroded connectors on the lnb/swm ... lots of things but accepting their "reboot the box" every time something happens is very wrong whether it fixes until the next reboot or not. Just like your computer, if you have to constantly reboot something else is going on. Using a timer to reboot every week or so is not only crazy it can cause hard-drive problems if you have a dvr resulting in video pixelization and locks ups. If those 2 things are the reason you always have to reboot your dvr is bad. INSIST on getting it replaced. Dealt with DirecTV for over 5 years as an employee. "REBOOT" is the first thing they are taught to say (and I was a "teacher" there) then making you wait in the queue again if it continues.
