Is your network switched? If so, other traffic won't cause any problems unless it's to/from the box trying to receive from the HDHR. Even then, it should be fine. I'm using gigabit and the backend doing the recording can receive 2 streams from the HDHR, and send the data to another server to handle commflagging without any issues. Oh, the HDHR is also my IR receiver. :) <br>
<br>I used to have a couple gripes about the box, related to IR, but recent firmware updates have fixed them. The updates also seem to have made the tuner a little better. <br>
