Questions and answers
How do I configure the ISB7500 DVR to record and play back from TV's in multiple rooms while connected via ethernet
The Cisco ISB7000 DVR is designed to use your in-home IP network for multi-room DVR functionality. To configure it for recording and playback on TVs in multiple rooms using Ethernet:
1. Connect the DVR to the Ethernet network: Plug an Ethernet (CAT-5) cable from your home network into the "Network" port on the back of the DVR.
2. Ensure all TVs are connected to the same network: Verify that all TVs you want to use for playback are connected to the same in-home IP network. This can be done through Ethernet or compatible network devices.
3. Activate Total Home DVR service: Contact your service provider to ensure the Total Home DVR service is activated. This service allows recording and playback on multiple TVs.
Once set up, you will be able to:
- Record shows on the DVR and play them back on any connected TV.
- Pause, fast-forward, and rewind recorded content from any room.
- Pause a recorded show in one room and resume it in another.
