Same thing here after a simple storm power outage. Hard disk no go. New one on the way...

Same here. The Hopper 3 showed 51 Mbps download/stream rate, but the images jittered when panning across a valley or other large movement. Actual pixel and color quality looked good but whatever tech they are using is years behind the near UHD Blu-ray quality of HDR/4K streaming on Amazon and...

Such a perfectionist. But yes the hub is indeed what I was referring to. :-)

Didn't replace the node but that node was just installed last July when I upgraded from VIP722K to Hopper/sling and wireless Joey. At that time I only expected the Joey 4K would be coming next so the Hopper was in the master bedroom not in the family room with the 4K TV. Installer just had to...

I'm the one just up the road from you. All done in 2 hours and 10 minutes. Most of the wait is for software updates and syncing. Hopper with sling upgraded to H3, Joey upgraded to Joey 2, and reconnected the wireless Joey in the kids playroom to the H3. He replaced the LNB to start and...

Yeah, we're 6 or 7 minutes drive from the Grange in unincorporated Wville. The appointment for tomorrow morning was confirmed. So they haven't killed my H3 dreams yet. Will update after the appointment.

I'll post status one way or another. The install is scheduled for tomorrow morning. I'm just virtually a stone's throw up WD Road from you.

On the eastside slightly north of Seattle. I was just able to confirm my Hopper 3 install over the phone for Wednesday. Didn't read this forum until just now. I have a single dish and no HD quality issues with Hopper with Sling. Though any snow flurry kills the signal. Hoping my CSR was right...

Same problem with my 722k in Seattle. DVR shows time already rolled back. The guide shows correct time, but it's all busted and can't navigate etc. What a screw up. Think of all the folks who lost football recordings tonight!

Amazon VOD is good too My Vizio TV has Netflix and Amazon video on demand apps. I did Netflix for a few months, but canceled and moved to Amazon. Amazon has a better selection of streaming TV series and movies. And most of them are $1.99 to $4.99 for HD quality that looks just as good as Dish...

My Sling Adapter arrived around December 8th. It worked great for about 2 or 3 days on my Android devices over WiFi, and home and work laptops in both IE and Firefox. Fast, high quality video over my 25 Mbit Verizon Fiber connection. Then it just stopped playing video either over LAN or...
