    Dishanywhere not showing guide

    This happened to me a month or two ago. (That is, after working perfectly well for over a year, the guide would not populate.) I should specify that I'm referring to the Dishanywhere app on my iPad. While restarting the app and restarting the iPad did not get the guide to show up, it was...

    Hopper Upgrades

    I am hoping for assistance from a DIRT member. I currently have 722 that has served me well for over 6 years but is now starting to fail. I'd like to see about swapping out the 722 for a Hopper (or, perhaps a Hopper w/Sling). Could someone from DIRT please PM me and provide me with...

    Cinemax penny deal ending??

    After 3 years and 7 months, Cinemax for a penny is gone for me too. (I'd say I'm going to miss it, but I doubt I've watched anything on it for over a year.)

    Software Update Release Notes 10/19/10

    Has no one else out there (other than eddie) gotten L672 for the 722. I've had it since early last week, and it's a big clunker. Here are some of the highlights: 1) It takes about 4 to 5 seconds (no exaggeration) for the program guide to appear after pushing the "Guide" button on the remote...

    L630

    My 722 is actually running L670 (not 630), but it's having all the same problems being reported here. Since getting the new software version my 722 has randomly shut down, and has frozen and required front panel rebooting a couple of times. The wife is really frustrated.

    Nat Geo Wild...March 29th

    I'm currently at a relative's house who has FiOS, and they are definitely receiving Nat Geo Wild programming right now.

    Remote Access

    I'm having the same problems. Used remote access many times in the past, but haven't been able to access my DVR online for the past two weeks or so.

    NFL Redzone Free this Sunday...

    On channel 9483 the listing from 12:50 to 4:00 p.m. today shows up as "Free Preview." Of course the channel is still in red at this time, but given the title of the listing, I'm not worried.

    A little clarification on Platinum HD please!

    I'm sorry, but this just doesn't sound like it's correct. For starters, I can attest that the criteria above are demonstrably false, since I receive NBA TV HD despite the fact that I don't meet any of those three criteria. I'm sure others will report the same thing (as Jim S. just did). NBATV...

    Dish Programming Changes (Effective August 1st)

    Thanks for the information...but I must ask you: Is this a quote from E* or are you writing this yourself? I ask because the sentence that I've bolded above doesn't make any sense. If the platinum channels are proactively added, then no call would be necessary. If, on the other hand, a call...

    Any update on MSNBC HiDef 6/29?

    Dish stated a long time ago that they wouldn't carry the channel until July 8. So why are you surprised it's not appearing this week?

    HD PQ Question

    Because you're comparing football to basketball, it sounds like an apples to oranges comparison, and thus not good grounds for concluding that it's a problem with the satellite compression. One might point out, for example, that there's a huge difference in quality between football and...

    Use "dish mover" or cancel and sign up again

    Seems to be one of the current deals for existing customers. See the following threads: http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/164613-upgraded-w-new-2-year-commitment-deals-right-now.html...

    Use "dish mover" or cancel and sign up again

    I'm soon going to be in the same situation as the OP. I will be moving (within the same city) and have been reasoning through in my head the pros and cons of Dish Mover vs. signing up as a new customer through my wife. As of now, I'm thinking that there really isn't any benefit to signing up...
