    Signal Strength, Lazy Installer?

    Call Dish and tell them about the two installers and the pixel problems. Your install/repoint is guaranteed for 90 days. As said above, numbers are fine, but there might be a LOS or connection problem. If you check the connections yourself, beware of the 722s connectors - it takes two...

    1/20/2011 1:09am - Uplink Activity Report - 26 changes

    So we lost two channels for the Oprah channel? We were robbed. Either of the two lost channels had way more programming that I might watch vs. OWN that has none.

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

    With Netflix HD downloads and PS3 app for only $8/month it is tempting. The first month is free, so you can try before you buy.

    The quality of HD channels?

    wcnghj, you will notice the biggest difference between 720p and 1080i during live sporting events. Outside of that, not so much. Has your 722 been upgraded to mpeg4? Quickest way to check is, does it have a card in the left panel? If not, call dish and get one. Mpeg4 PQ is outstanding.

    Set DVR to record New Episodes, but still records old epsisodes sometimes.

    Garbage in, garbage out. If you have a habitual offender, you may want to manually delete (skip) programming from the Timers menu.

    129 with a dish500 from Florida

    I am south west of you, more than a day trip, and I can pick up a couple Orlando stations with amplified rabbit ears. When BBCA HD was rolled out Dish upgraded my dual 500s with a single Western Arc dish on an existing mast for $15. Western Arc gets 110, 119 and 129.

    If you have a modem you can use one of the many free call blocking programs available. Used to use one named PhoneTray. When telemarketers called, they were greeted with the three tones of a disconnected phone. Many VOIPs have call blockers, too.

    Networking/Dishonline

    The answer is maybe. Some USB sticks work, some don't. Had an RJ45 WAP that was flaky. Replaced it with a TrendNet 642 gaming adapter. After upgrading the firmware it has been bullet proof, while the new software is flaky. You can find them online for $30 delivered. Maybe not today, but at...

    besides red zone, what is the point of the sports pack?

    You might be able to catch post game shows that are often scheduled before the games conclusion. Other than that, Redzone is the only saving grace. For Hockey fans, Sports Pack is $120 a year - Center Ice is only about $20 more.

    Will This work for Wireless 722?

    Maybe. Maybe not. Is your wireless router Netgear? If so, your chances are better. Netgear publishes compatible adapters in the routers documentation. Most problems with setting up a network are ability and compatibility. And even if they are able and compatible, will you set the right...

    Self install, any advantage?

    Dish Installers decide with you on dish location with LOS. If you order through Dish directly, it must be installed in view from the street unless it is verboten by HOA. All wires will be attached to the outside of your house up to the point where a hole is drilled through an exterior wall...

    Section 3.2 of your Dish Network contract covers changes in channels and fees. It happens, but you are still bound to the contract.
