Dish Remote Access, no Internet needed?

[KAB]

Question. I just set up for access without broadband, just phone. I scheduled a recording, but was not given the option of which of my two 722's to record to, nor could I find anything. They are both connected to phone line. Can it be done without BB?

I have 2 - 622 receivers. In the upper left hand corner next to the Dish logo shows my receiver number with a drop down number next to it. Click on that drop down arrow and you can select which receiver you are looking at.

Ok - I have broadband access - hooked up to one of my receivers - and dish.sling.com has worked fine for remote access.

So, now when I go to that address, it says this page is here, but not for long. It says soon, go to dishnetwork.com, previously, I could not register my account here since I bundle with my phone company. However, now I can get (some) account access through this page. (this is progress). The link is there for remote access.

When I try the remote access, I am getting inconsistent results. It has worked (twice or so), but for the most part I get the "Connecting .... " box with a cancel to continue as an offline user.

I have verified/reset my broadband connection on the receiver (a 722).

I was hoping this updated remote access would allow access to my second receiver which does not have an internet connection. But now I'm not getting a reliable connection on the primary receiver with the broadband connection.

Any ideas?

First post here. Tried tv anywhere and it only shows me Spanish stations and I cant figure out how to fix it. Weird.

It has been royally screwed up for me. Remote access was working well until they added the off-line access without broadband. Now the channels are wrong and that times are off when I go to remote access. I set an off-line recording for two episodes of scrubs last night. When I got home they were priority one and two but there was no title nor channel on the timers. They did have the right descriptions for the shows. They did not record.

Hope they fix it soon. Right now is quite useless.

NOT FIXED AS OF YET

I've tested it on 2 different sets, both, which are hooked up to broadband. I find that while I have no problems using broadband with the boxes, only one of them seems to be recognized by the remote feature. I guess it's not a big deal since I can still record shows on either TV now but it would have been nice to have both working properly.
