Works for me too, it's been driving me crazy!

Same here, finally rebooted everything and it came up.

Maybe they just need a good wash, rinse and dry now and then. I did have a 722 remote that went through the washing machine and when I let it dry out, and now still, years later, it still works as my "second" remote to one of my Joeys.

Mine was definitely not water proof. But still works!

I've also had mine since they first came out and had to pay $100 for mine. No problems ever. In fact, just posted a thread about my Sling adapter being underwater for 36 hours, and after drying it out, it is still working!

Long story short, I had a flood in my basement and the Hopper and Sling adapter were fully underwater for 36 hours. :eek: Dish sent me a replacement Hopper at no charge, I returned the old one. New Hopper working great. About a week after, I finally got around to the Sling adapter and took a...

Wow, I have been on the phone with Dish multiple times to try and get this fixed. They have sent me now 2 replacement remotes as the "fix". Finally gave up, came here and did a search. Now I have a total of three (finally) fully working remotes in my family room. Dish would save money if...

Just tried to get on again. After login, I selected 209 from the Guide. It brought up SCI channel 193 instead of 209. Fortunately, I actually am subscribed to this channel, so it brought it up. I was then able to switch from 193 to 209 by entering the channel in "NUM". Very odd and...

This is probably covered elsewhere but I found that if I use IE instead of Firefox, and I would log in, then log out, then log in again, then refresh the DVR button, it would usually work. That is, until my current problem started, a couple of months ago. Up until then, I had about a year of...

Today when I tried to access the sling adapter, the tuner went to the Military channel, another one I do not have subscription to. It showed the tuner occupied by the sling at that channel, but the browser gave me an error and didn't stream the video.

I have sent you the account info in a pm. Thanks!

So far, it has been selecting channel 198, CLOO, but I have only just started checking that when trying to get on the sling.

Thanks Zach, what about the issue of the hopper selecting a channel I am not subscribed to when I go to watch "live" tv via TV Everywhere? It seems this is more of a problem than the other issue.

Wow, that is kind of a major issue! Would be fine if it picked a channel I could get, maybe I could then change the channel via the browser. As it is, Sling is dead until this is fixed.

The mystery deepens. I tried to watch CNN just now. I checked the tuners, and two were being taken up by my hopper. I turned off the third tuner (being used by a joey), so I had one free. My IE 9 shows streaming, but no picture or sound. Pressing the red button to view the status of the...
