    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    What do you guys recommend? I have to each evening reset my network connection in on my 722 and then seconds later I can connect from anywhere, web browser, iphone/ipad. Then it will work late into the night. Then next day I can't connect (on iphone and ipad it shows yellow DVR not GREEN). Then...

    Known issue with dishonline.com preventing connecting to DVRs to manage recordings?

    Same problem here I have been seeing a YELLOW or GRAY/BLACK DVR at the top of my iPhone or iPad for weeks now and cannot connect. Unless I first (each and every day at some point) go into Settings on the DVR and reset network connection. It will then work until next day when I have to do that...

    Anybody seeing pause skip issues with 722?

    Lately I notice that pause then skip ahead makes my 722 hang, show video out of sync a few seconds then it skips to live, missing parts of show. But if instead I go to a recording of the same show and skip there are no issues seen. So only happens with pause then skip forward or skip back. Is...

    Thinking of moving from Dish to Brighthouse

    I'm thinking of moving from dish to bright house, my only cable provider in the area. Any opinions on if I'm making the right choice? How's customer service at BH? I live in Alabama. What kind of DVR capabilities will I have? My main goal is to have 4 TVs and use DVR on two. Need HD service...

    dish remote access sling quality @ 384kbps upload.

    Where did you read the change to the minimum upload speed? What's strange to me is that my bandwidth has not changed with AT&T. I have about 350 - 375 up and have been able to stream out and down to my iphone via 3G with ZERO stutters after the first 10 seconds or so...even worked via E....and...

    Sling Adaptor Field Reviews

    You are right. I had not tried viewing on tv1 (assume you meant view on tv1) and recording at the same time but I think what is happening is that we both have our dish boxes so that by default they record on tv2 unless it's already recording something. Then the SA uses tv2 so that you are...

    Put your VIP box on Dual Mode folks....you'll have trouble if your box (right on the front of the panel) is set for Single mode. Recordings may not play correctly, etc.

    Sling Adaptor Field Reviews

    I received my Sling Adapter yesterday and connecting it couldn't have been easier. Some specifics: Using VIP 722, wired connection to back of Linksys wireless router/hub going to BellSouth/AT&T broadband modem out to AT&T network using a 6 Mb connection. I get about 400 up and 5.5 down most...

    VIP 722 making ringing noise

    Oh and again it stops immediately as I press the off button (which again doesn't completely power off the unit). What would be ringing that would stop the second I press the off button on the DVR? One more thing. If I have nothing recording at the time the above is true. If I set a channel...

    VIP 722 making ringing noise

    No not high pitched. Definitely an audible sound anyone could hear. Wife is also complaining. It actually signs like a low level ring....ring....ring. The idea of the wire touching fan could do it.

    VIP 722 making ringing noise

    I have also unscrewed both incoming coax cables from the back of the box, did one at a time. However, even with both completely disconnected still hear the consistent rinnnnnggggg, rinnnnnnnnggggg,...............rinnnnnggggg......ringgggggggg. Do you think its the box?

    VIP 722 making ringing noise

    Would it be something other than some coax/connection issue if it stops when I press the power off button? I mean a normal power off....dish network logo still appears on screen. But, if turned back on (video showing) it eventually starts the ringing again.

    VIP 722 making ringing noise

    I have a new VIP 722 that Dish sent me after my 622 would no longer power on. This is actually my third DVR with them. I've had the 722 installed for about a week and today it started making this sound that is similar to a dialing type sound. It happens in intervals that sounds exactly like...

    Is DishHD Ultimate worth $10.00?

    Dropped to Essentials only Definitely not worth it for the extra 10 bucks for the Ultimate HD. Just logged in online at dish and changed my HD programming to Essentials. Much easier than calling them 5 times to get it right. I signed the petition to put the Monster Channel back also.
