[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1177108, member: 82144"] Cheers for the info - it is indeed helpful. :) To answer my other questions: Going from the info on DirecTV's website, location (which maps to MAC address) seems to be set as part of the process where the Genie Mini is linked to the main Genie. [URL]https://support.directv.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4109/~/wireless-genie-mini%3A-troubleshooting-tips%2C-how-to-install-an-additional[/URL] There's a SHEF request (getLocations) that enables you to get the list of { MAC address + location } for a given Genie. As a result, I think it would be more user friendly to enable people to enter the location (eg. BEDROOM, LOUNGE) rather than the MAC address. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
