"Television signal has been lost"
Hello, all. I choose to use my own router, so my setup is Telus NAH—>own router—>Telus Optik PVR. I have port 1 of the NAS bridged, to which the router is connected. This setup has always been wo...
The PVR cutting out after 5-10 seconds is a clear indicator that the router it's connected to, the Eero, doesn't support multicast packets. Live TV requires it. The Telus hardware has multicast enabled by default. Very few third party routers properly support multicast, if at all. If the Eero doesn't support multicast, then you'll need to connect the PVR directly to one of the other ports on the NAH if you intend to keep using the Eero for the rest of your devices.
My third party router support team is able to help me set the router up to support multicast, but they need my Telus VLAN ID (between 1 and 4094) and the IP configuration (default or static). This is technically not specifically assisting with my third party router, as it is directly related to my Telus service; therefore, would you be able to assist me in obtaining this info?
