    Hopper 3 losing picture and sound

    My Hopper 3 will shutdown (picture and sound gone, light on Hopper still lit). It restarts on it's own after a few minutes. Does this while watching sat channels or Netflix. Any ideas what can be causing this? It's not getting hot (had that problem with the 722 so I checked that.) Not sure if...

    Work around for H3 Home Screen start-up.

    I found a way to get around the home screen start-up. I set the standby timeout to off and only turn off the TV and leave the Hopper on. But since the Hopper 3 still has to shut off every night for the update, first thing in the morning it would come on at the home screen. So, set up an auto...

    DPPlus Question

    I was recently given a Dish with a DPPlus LNB on it. The dish is black with DishHD written on it. I plan on using this dish with a VIP211 receiver in my RV. The LNB has two coax cables coming from it. My question is, does’ the DPPlus have a built in switch and the two cables are for two...

    What's your local Bandwidth?

    I'd like to start a query of Suddenlink broadband users. I know that Suddenlink has different speeds in each City (town) they are in. My guess it has a lot to do with the local competition. I live in Paola, KS and our top speed is 3meg. My sister lives in Pineville, LA and her top speed was...
