Reviews around expect (5.00 of 5)

  • In each case, the first suggested code worked correctly (however I didn't "think" it was working as I will explain).The difficult part - there are a number of "secret codes" you may need to look up in order to get everything working as expected
  • some difficulty programming but all worked out, works as expected and came on time...
  • Replacement for one that wore out, works as expected on RF.
  • Either way, after making the switch to RF mode it works as expected.

Reviews around buy (5.00 of 5)

  • 2-pack and the 2 of them together cost less through Amazon than 1 of them would have cost at Best Buy or through Directv, my provider
  • It was also 5 times cheaper than the same remote at Best Buy
  • I was skeptical that it really had the RF capability because it's so cheap (these are $35 at Best Buy
  • The price through Amazon beats the AT&T/Directv price by half and so makes this a good buy
  • The units themselves appear to be exact matches to what AT&T/Directv supplies and so are a good buy
