    Hopper Question (probably dumb)

    We have two of the original, non-Sling Hoppers w/no Joeys. They are connected to the internet and work just fine (albeit a bit slow). They also have telephone lines connected for CallerID. These lines were a requirement for some billing reason years ago, plus I think you received a discount...

    Hopper Upgrade?

    Thanks for getting back to me! I have lots of timers and well over 1 TB of content on each Hopper. USB 2.0 will make this a long process! And I guess the timers will all have to be manually re-entered... Ouch! A bit much to be sure.

    Hopper Upgrade?

    We will probably be moving within the next 6 months and we want to keep our Dish - it's pricey but we still like Dish. We have two of the original, non-Sling Hoppers that we love but with the upcoming move, I have been thinking about upgrading to the latest model at that time. We have a lot of...

    NFL Network Dispute? -- Resolved

    Again, the whole thing has spun out of control. And that includes my beloved Redskins - "Captain Kirk" will end up getting a contract worth over $100M! He is a talented athlete and a very fine person - but $100M+ ??? Crazy! Just my 2 cents.

    Tribune Broadcasting Company Blacks Out DISH Customers in 33 Markets;

    Hopper Content Sharing Problem (S605?)

    We have 2 of the original (no Sling) Hoppers (LR & BR) and we love them! We often like to watch content from the BR Hopper on the LR Hopper. This had worked well for some time. Recently we found that the internet connection from the BR => LR is very unstable and really unwatchable. The LR's...

    Hopper Magazine ?

    Becki: Thanks for getting back to me! I can't think of any others at this time. We really enjoy the Hopper magazine and the movies are our biggies. We have lived in Northern Virginia for years - the Redskins and the Nationals are out chief interests followed by DC United MLS, so our sports...

    Hopper Magazine ?

    Maybe I am missing something but I wonder why the EPIX movie channels are not included in the listings?

    Hopper magazine

    We really like the magazine - only gripe is that Epix is ignored - should be included.

    Hopper S440

    I could understand if I were a Seahawks fan. Big Mike & son were fired, but they walked away with millions.
