Well, I have tried everything I can think of. The systems are both plugged into power strips that are plugged directly into the outlets and even though each receiver says its on line neither can see the other.
Could the power strip be causing the problem?

Yup that could cause it. They will have special surge protector strips coming which allow DishCOMM to work still.

Normal strip--$10!
DishCOMM strip--$100 "upgrade lease fee" with $1 back a month!
Profit for Dish--Priceless!!!

Could the power strip be causing the problem? | The other thing that can cause problems is the way your house is wired. Believe me, I'm no expert in this area at all, but my understanding is sometimes houses are wired with separate circuits (probably not the right word) that make 1 half of the house totally separate from the other. I'm sure that someone with more experience (that actually knows what the hell they are talking about) can add more details, but I wanted to throw out another potential problem.

When I follow your directions 6, 1, 8.... I don't show any 8.... perhaps you need the latest software revision..4.01??? I am using 3.66.

Yes, you need L4.01 to use DishComm, it is not active prior to this release.

What is the purpose of turning Dish Comm on? What are the benefits? If you have a 622 and a 311 would you turn Dish Comm on? Does turning the Dish Comm on save the $5 monthly fee? Where can I go to read about Dish Comm? Thanks... you guys rock!
