Yeah. Feed comes in the house to a splitter thing. I dunno. I switched them (receiver 1 and 2) and now, after that weird attempt with the crazy numbers, its 90% complete on 0575

Ok, switched the lines on the splitter between the two boxes... Its "searching for new software" (04D1) downloading software... please wait. but nothing is happening. Some numbers in the upper left hand corner are going up... 2/4/110/30 then 2/4/115/31... etc. its at 0%. I think its broken.

Well, I just let it restart completely and did a menu reset. Nothing. It just says a few more seconds.... then it does a self check. This is infuriating. I have done this loads of times with NO problems, and on this one.... its just not seeing it or something. I even changed the batteries in the...

Yeah, I have tried super fast. Super slow. The normal 0-one thousand 2-one thousand way... nothing. It just says "a few more seconds", running self check, then it goes to step one of two. I don't think its the way Im pressing the buttons. It worked upstairs just fine. First try. This one down...

Hey guys, I don't post on here much anymore, but I am having trouble getting the downstairs receiver to accept the 0 2 4 6 8 code to initiate the CE download. the one upstairs worked perfectly, but I have been trying for about 25 min. to get this one going down here.... I must have reset the...

HR23-700 Things are working great. Only have the one box, so MRV useless for me. Remote responsiveness is DRAMATICALLY improved. Huge increase in speed! My wife even commented on this, and she doesn't know anything about the CE... Some weird audio clips when I first start watching after...

If you will notice in the screen shot, there is a 200 dollar credit, then the charge for CI, then the credit for CI. Not sure why you cannot believe this, I have provided ample proof, including a screen shot taken directly from the account "recent activity" box... My balance was zero, as...

Feel free to look at the screen shot of my DirecTv online "recent activity" I took. (second page.) She said she has been giving that same offer out all week. Don't know what to tell ya. Im just letting you know what happened for me when I called in about VS.

I made the move for customer service reasons and couldn't be happier in that regard. Now some people on D*, from what I can tell, really seem to like the equipment, but I liked Dish's better. The 722 that I had was great. I loved the MENU-All channels, MENU-All sub, MENU- All HD thing. It...

Dish- Not a chance in hell. I was with them for two long, drawn out, painful years. Their customer service is a JOKE. farmed out to god knows where, and the only way to get something done is threaten to cancel, and actually start the process, because they wont transfer you to the retention...

Sorry you don't believe me, but it is true. Talked to the nicest customer retention rep ever... She gave me that and told me that it was the new policy to give that out for free to people mad about VS. I told her my team would still be blacked out, so she gave me a 200 credit to get VS on...

If you call and tell them you are angry with VS being pulled, you get NHL CI for free.

Well I sent the 722 back already. They weren't willing to work anything out with me. (Had no contract with them, that may be why. I wanted a 722k and HD turbo gold with locals for 40/month. the same thing I was paying before they screwed my programing up and put me in AT250 with NO authorization...

Will the installer hook it up if you have it or is this a DIY project. I dont even understand what a SWM or power inserter is, so I'm not sure how competent I could be in attempting to install it myself.
