    How do I watch my Dish Sling?

    I know this a dumb question, but I have a Dish Sling adapter connected to my 722. I've used it several times, but none in the last month or so. Anyway, I log on today and the option to watch it under my account after logging into DishNetwork.com isn't there any longer. Where do I go to watch...

    Is there a way to stop it from recording these ad's?

    I notice every week or so that I have an recording listed of an advertisement for Dish 99 cent movies, or something similar. Well, tonight I was sitting here watch tv and it popped up saying a recording would start in 3 minutes. Unsure of what it was and not thinking I just hit cancel so it...

    Which package is the Pursuit channel in? Channel 240.

    I recently lowered my package to the top 120 because I found I just didn't watch many of the channels I was paying extra for and I realized I'd rather save the money and use Netflix streaming in addition to the 120 package. Today I found channel 240. I'd never watched it before, but since I...

    Starz 12 month Free preview

    Sorry about that, I did a search but didn't come up with anything. I guess I'm just not very efficient with the search.

    Starz 12 month Free preview

    So I logged onto my Dish account and see that it lists as my programming Starz Free for 12 months. I didn't sign up for this, so I wondered if it was something everyone is getting. Also, they didn't renew my contract by adding this correct?

    Is there a way to get rid of the ad in the guide on my 722?

    Thank you for your quick help. I had no idea that was there in the menu, but I'm very glad the ad is gone.

    Is there a way to get rid of the ad in the guide on my 722?

    ...with a friends 722. They had a strip across the bottom of the screen when in the guide that was advertising a pay per view movie and it said press * to order. I wasn't sure why they had this, but I was glad that on my 722 I didn't have this. Well, last night I used one of my pay per view...

    Dish HD vs Disney (DISH sort of won...)

    Yeah, it seems like Dish could care less about having this channels back. I emailed them back when FX was lost and said I mainly wanted the HD channels that were lost back. They kept avoiding talking about them, and telling me how I could get some sports channels for free at the time. It annoyed...

    Anyone downgrade their subscriptions and gone to NETFLIX for the movies?

    Yep, I also dropped all of my premium channels and added Netflix. I found myself watching Netflix more and more and Dish less and less. So I ended up calling and downgrading my package to the AT120 package also and disconnected my second receiver as I just wasn't watching it. I do watch several...

    What's going on with my system?

    I have two receivers, but I hardly ever watch the one upstairs so I've not noticed it doing it. The one I mainly watch and have noticed this on is a 722ViP. The other one is an older 501. That being said, it quit doing it, and has been working for a couple of hours tonight, so I can't figure out...

    What's going on with my system?

    So starting a month or two ago, I came inside and noticed my signal fading out. I went out and tweaked the Dish and got it good again. Signal strength was in the mid to high 70's on 110 and 119 and in the high 50's on 129. It worked great for two weeks or so, but then I noticed it again. I...

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I've got to say this is a little ridiculous. I've been with Dish for years, and they always have these disputes. However, usually in the past, it's been for a few days or a week or so at most. Now it's months upon months. I still don't have many of my HD channels like ABC Family HD back yet and...

    What's a good signal strength?

    I'm wondering that too, but once I aligned the Dish again it's working again and has been for a couple of weeks now. So it's making me wonder if the Dish just somehow got knocked out of alignment twice in a few weeks.

    What are my options to sign up for HD for life?

    So I read about this before, but never signed up. I'm finally realizing I need to sign up. Anyway, currently I have no contract and having the AT200 package and then I pay an extra $10 per month for HD. I've been doing this for a couple of years. So I'm finally ready to get the HD for Life, but...

    What's a good signal strength?

    So I'm once again having this problem. I don't know if my Dish is shifting or what. Anyway, it worked great for a few days and then today, I started having my signal drop in and out. So I checked my signal strength and it was down in the 50's on 119. I went out to my Dish and tried to peak it...

    What's a good signal strength?

    I didn't see that message on my 722. So if I'm getting between 70-75 on 119 I'm doing pretty good? What about the 50's on the 129 satellite?

    What's a good signal strength?

    I remember back when I had my Dish 500 my signal was always in the high 90's. Since I got a Dish 1000 several years back it's always been lower, but I can't remember how long. I've not had issues for years, but today I noticed that I kept losing signal. I decided to check my signal and sure...

    3D on Dish??????

    I don't see 3d TV's taking off either for home use, but I could be wrong. The two things holding me back from even having a desire to have a 3D TV are, the fact that I currently have a projector with a 106" screen. After having this setup there is no way I'd consider going back to a regular TV...

    Are we going to get the ABC HD channels back?

    So I've been with Dish for a long time now. I've been through several of these disputes over channels with them and we have always had the channels back in what seemed like a few days. A week max. We haven't gotten these HD channels back and it's been a couple of weeks. Now, I'm not going to...

    Tipping the installer

    The first installer we ever had was great when we first got Dish. I didn't tip him, but really wish I had. I would have problem given him $20-30. He did a great job in the freezing cold snow storm. I really wish I had tipped him. The next time was when I upgraded from a Dish 500 to a Super...
