Here is a question for all. I have a 722k with a sling adapter installed on the rear USB and a WiFi broadband stick on the front USB. I would like to add an external hard drive to the receiver, but the two USB ports are in use. Can I use a USB hub with the sling adapter, external hard drive...

I am puzzled when I perform a system info (menu 6-1-3) and all receivers show green for 72.7 and yellow and sometimes red for 61.5. Here is what I have in my system... I started with a 722k and 211k with a 1000.4 EA dish giving me 77, 72.7 and 61.5. At that time, both receivers showed green...

Has anyone else that has Xfinity Internet get a speed boost? I have the performance level of service and before the upgrade I was testing at about 25 down and 3-4 up. After the upgrade I'm testing at between 40-60 (usually in the upper 40s) down and 5-6 up. Just wondering what other people had...

Awaiting an XM Onyx radio for Christmas and I'm looking at subscriptions. I'm interested in Mets baseball, but can you actually receive live games on satellite radio (not the online version). Im not interested in a recap or anything else other than the actual games. Also, what is the best way to...

I've been trying to figure out a remote issue with a 722k. Over Chirstmas, my Mom got a 47" Vizio HDTV and decided to put it downstairs. Well the receiver was upstairs on the 32" HDTV so I asked her where she would most likely watch most of her tv, and of course it would be on the tv without...

My wife and I could be re-locating for a job to the southern part of Vermont. The southwestern corner of Vermont is in the Albany DMA and the southeastern corner of Vermont is in the Boston DMA. I went to the Dish website to see which locals were available and I found, depending on which...

I know this has been a topic in the past, but I was wondering if any of the new Dish employees could shed any light or at least put in a word for us. Over a year ago, I dropped the French Bouquet when Dish decided to drop the yearly pricing and go with the month to month charge for the...

I have a question regarding HD for life regarding accounts bundled with telephone accounts. A family member recently upgraded to HD after purchasing a new HDTV. When asking for the "HD for life" she was told that the offer doesn't apply to accounts that are bundled with phone service. So now...

I am considering purchasing the new 20.0 or 21.0 to use with a DVR 510. The reason I am considering this is for my mother who has to use the remote for the home theater system. The current platinum remote for the 510 doesn't operate the muting or volume for the home theater system. Knowing...

I have enough remotes, but I have noticed the occasional DVR remote usually 6.0 or 6.3 that just chews up batteries. I mean literally having to change batteries every other day. Does anyone know what is shorting out to cause this? Has anyone else experienced this with their remotes? If there...

I know how to connect up to 4 orbitals using the DPP44 switch. How would you connect 5 orbitals to your receiver? 119, 110, 129, 118.7, 61.5? I think I know how, but I'm not completely sure.

I was looking at the channels on all the Dish Network satellites and I was wondering what the future holds for 148. While I see a small mix of international and western US locals, isn't Dish trying to migrate most (if not all) internationals to 118.7? If that is the case, that only leaves...

I'm curious to find out with everyone's experience which dish receives the strongest signals and least rain fade. The dishes I'm curious to compare are the Dish 500, 500/1000 Plus dish, SuperDish with 118.7 repoint kit, 1000.2 and 1000.4.
