    Please DISH get METV back!

    Since DISH and SLING TV are both owned by Dishnetwork and now Echostar why can't DISH use the same guide information as the Air Tv does? I get complete guide information for all my ota channels using the Air Tv Anywhere 4 tuner ota device and I can use Sling tv with it all in one guide. It's...

    Traditional Providers Losses, 1st Quarter 2024 Edition

    You know I have seen Spectrum use orange coax before and I know that ATT fiber uses it too. I wonder if he is using ATT fiber instead? Either way that coax has been not buried going back to last summer.

    It wouldn't require a service call. Could get them to drop me back to just the lower starter price that gives you lower speed of 200 mpbs. Or they could renew my current deal for $60.00 for another year and I would get 500mpbs( but still only 300 mpbs for some reason). Hell Spectrum Cable when...

    Streaming Is The New Cable

    You are just using the programs that are already recorded by Paramount on their app but you have a days worth of delay for the better p/q . I like watching when it is live or slightly delayed at home. I can't really see much difference between 4k and HD anyway. Just like I don't see any...

    Traditional Providers Losses, 1st Quarter 2024 Edition

    My modem is the one that Spectrum sent to us in the mail. I am going to call and ask them about whether the modem makes any difference with the speeds. We also use their wi-fi tower. I can always downgrade to the lower speed and price since I am not getting the full 500 anyway.

    Streaming Is The New Cable

    My first dvr was the WebTV/Dish player 7100 model in August of 1999. Loved it and it was also my first experience with the web and getting on the internet. I even refinanced my house over the web tv feature. It worked great till the Microsoft DISH fight started and then it was nothing but...

    Do you see any throttling of the bandwidth when you get a certain amount in, like they cut the speeds? I am located in a park with lots of trees and I can only get 3 to 4 bars in my house. T mobile says that I can receive it in my area but I am worried it wouldn't be enough for my son and us...

    Random DVR Recordings from 2016 Came Back

    A lot of stuff has happened on that show since 2016. My wife and I have been watching it since 2011 after the other 2 soaps went off the air and then off the internet series too.

    Two Hopper 3 with 10 Joeys

    OK, I'll bite. Why do you need so many dvrs and joeys? Are you running a hotel? I don't have that much I would record and when I had the Hopper 3 with DISH, I never used all 16 tuners at the same time except to test that it could record 16 things at the same time.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    And he bought it for $44 billion and it's only worth $12.5 billion as of January of 2024. Real good investment huh? That is a 71% decrease from the price Musk paid for the company in 2022. He is running it straight into the ground. :smug

    Quantum Leap Coming Back!

    I enjoyed the show and Ben was a good actor that made you believe he cared. But once again NBC and their track record with Sci-fi is bleak. They have destroyed a lot of good shows by filming too few episodes and waiting too long to come back. This could of also had a lot to do with the...

    You could call DISH and talk to the tech dept. and tell them or send them a text using the online chat.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I don't see this happening since DISH is bleeding subs and cash they need to finish their cell phone network. Directv is in no better condition with their subs leaving just as fast. Satellite TV is soon to be relic of the past like VCRS and 8 track tapes and cassettes. I don't see either...

    I don't have any problem paying for what I want to see. It is paying for someone else to watch sports that bugs me. All the years I paid for that piss me off. I mean going back to 1981 through 2020 I had either cable or satellite and it was built into the programming packs and you couldn't...

    From DISH about Locals

    For a while, but not for ever. Broadband is being spread across the country, including in rural areas thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act. They only started to spend on it less than two years ago after they passed it in 2022. They will be spending on it for quite a few years till...

    I hope they do explode and take the sports with them. How many years did we pay for them when we didn't like or want sports in normal cable/satellite packs? Let those who want sports pay for them and the rest of us can opt out. :smug

    From DISH about Locals

    IF only DISH had come out with a 4 tuner ota usb dongle,so you could still get all 4 networks recording then subs could still have auto skip on their shows using Prime time anywhere and not miss anything by using an antenna instead of sat locals. I have that in my Tablo and my Air Tv Anywhere...

    Cable And Satellite Providers Required To Disclose “All In” Pricing Under Newly Passed FCC Rules

    Most installs are the Hopper and the Joey setup. The Wallys have been more for recreational vehicles and out door accounts and tail gaters. I have had both Hopper and the Wally and the Wallys have been a lot of trouble, at least for my parents on my second account I used to have. The Hopper...
