Anyone familiar with the Smartbox? I had an installer come onsite yesterday to our property to look at upgrading our TV service in our 60 room hotel and large casino floor to HD. I really like the Smartbox because I can consolidate two racks of analog equipment into 5U of space. I was told to...

Hopefully I'm posting this in the right area. I'm an I.T. guy being asked to help update our TV system at our casino/hotel. We currently have 40 DirecTV receivers at the head end going into 40 modulators and broadcast the 40 analog channels to 60 hotel rooms and another 30 TVs on the casino...

Upgraded to HWS tonight. I copied all of my shows on my original Hopper to an external hard drive (USB only, no external power option). External Device 1 only shows if I plug in EHD and reset the Hopper. But it shows as 0MB total/free space, don't see any of my shows when I try to transfer...

I linked the new remote during setup wizard. How can I get my old remote linked up so I can restore my settings? Thanks!

My basement living room TV currently has a Joey. It only has a coax line back to my utility room. The guest bedroom currently has no Joey. It has a coax line and CAT5e back to my utility room. Any way of putting the Joey in the utility room and splititng it so both TVs can use/see it? I see...

Count me in the "Sling Adapter Is Dead" club. Tried different USB ports, unplug power from Hopper, etc. The light doesn't come on. Been like this for months. I see on the DISH forum a lot of people are having same issue in last 6 months. Can I get this replaced? I pay for the protection...

I have an 20.0 IR remote from my old 722k that still works. The INPUT button works, allowing me to select my HDMI ports. The new 40.0 UHF remote doesn't allow me to use the INPUT button. When I hit the TV button, it flashes like 4 times really fast. Volume/mute and Power for the TV work just...

1 Hopper and 2 Joeys. DISH tech took about 3hrs. The Hopper had to be hard reset after it stayed on step 3 of 6 for a hour. After the reset, it moved along and took another 20 minutes to finish. So far loving the speed and UHF remotes. Haven't had much time to figure everything out...

Tech will be here in 20 minutes! I don't think it's possible with the 20.0 IR remote, but just wanted to verify. Thanks!

I'm getting a Hopper and two Joeys installed on Saturday. I can't wait! I currently have a 722k and 211K The existing coax is strung around my house and drilled through the sidings. I HATE this! I plan on redoing the siding in 12 months, so I want this mess GONE. I ran new RG6 3GHz cables...

My current setup has the coax going around the outside of my house, which looks horrible. I ran new RG6 Double Shield (Swept to 3GHz is printed on cable) throughout my house this last week. Runs are no more than 50ft to my utility room. When I order the Hopper/2 Joeys next month, I need the...

Not sure where else to post this, so I'll try here. I need to install a new phone jack in my utility room (relocating DSL modem down there). The CAT3 (2 pairs) comes from the telco on the side of the house, into the attic, and splits off. One to a bedroom, and one to the kitchen. I need...

HOLY CRAP. This thing is sweet, why did I wait so long?? Best $30 spent ever. I only have 896Kbps upload on my DSL line, so watching SD quality is the best on my 4G Android phone. But it does the job. I can't wait to watch my sports games on the phone when out and about. Does any other...

I'm remodeling a bathroom. While I have some of the subfloor up, I am running Dual Shield RG6 (swept to 3GHz) in my 30 year old house. To get the cables in my bedroom, I want to run the RG6 and CAT5e cables around the plumbing for my bathtub. I need to make sure this is up to code, as an...

I posted this on the other forum, figured I would post here to get some more exposure. When our 2.5yr GE over the oven microwave is on, our main VIP722K becomes very choppy. I have a SDTV piggy backed onto the 722K that is fine when the microwave is on. I also have another HD VIP211K receiver...

FNG = Fawking New Guy ;) I've been a DISH customer since 06/01/2011, so not quite a year. I have the America Top 250, with a VIP722K and pay for the Protection Plan. I am in the middle of running new RG6 cable to my outlets. My house is old, so there is a bunch of cable running on the...
