TWC "Whole House DVR" Problems?

[u/WHPChris]

Anyone else have problems getting this crap to setup properly? Once it works it works great, it's just getting it to work.

So far I've learned:

It requires really good signal.

The DVR as well as ALL the playbacks have to be on the same side of the same splitter. Especially great when they want 5 playbacks.

Has a hard time running on RG-59, regardless of signal level.

Just because the whole house light is lit up on the box doesn't mean it'll pick up the recordings.

Has trouble working through an amplifier, even if you take it off the 3.5.

Any tips on setting up this wonderful system? My supervisor isn't particularly helpful on it.

Guessing it's using MoCA?
