    Keep losing communication between the remote and receiver vip722

    My 411 also began doing a "delay". This began late last week. When changing channels, the screen goes black for 5-10 seconds before programming begins. There is also a delay when bringing up the program guide.

    DISH Bundles TV Service with ViaSat's Next-Gener?ation High-Speed Satellite Broadband

    211 with EHD. Watching and recording

    ViP211 and multiple HDs?

    Visitor, You can exchange hard drives (without loss of programs) with no problem. Just let the 211 reboot itself before plugging in a different hard drive. You will have to wait a few minutes as the receiver goes through the reboot and change of guide days, then it will do it again when you...

    Our local PBS station (KVIE, Sacramento) is broadcasting in Widescreen HD. Dish is only carrying them in SD format(4X3 with sidebars) and parts of words are cut off. The guide also does not show it as an HD station. I chatted with Dish and they said they would put in a "program request". I...
