    unbelievable MoCa

    If it works i will post a picture of one of the mouse/some kind of critter-chewed coax that was connecting my deck TV to my Hopper. It's amazing, I was still getting reception - well,.... most of the time, well, ......some of the time until recently, and I had to replace the cable and put it in...

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    I wish bluetooth would work consistently. Bose soundlink works sometimes, never shows up in devices. Gotta go thru all the hoops everytime I want to connect up speaker. It works just fine with my phone and computer and tablet. Just another software problem added to all the rest. Oh, if I could...

    DishNET internet

    I live in southwest Ohio, in the boonies and signed up for satellite last year. The speed is about as fast as my friends ATT Uverse, but more expensive. Of course there is a long ping time - usually more than a second, but speed is 6-8 meg.

    Does Dish Anywhere ever work properly?

    When the Hopper first came out, I had Sprint/HTC phone. At times, the dishanywhere - or what ever it was called back then - was very sparodic and more often than not, wouldn't connect reliably. Now, I have T-Mobile, a Samsung Galaxy Note 2, the sling adapter and it just works. I watch some kind...

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    I've had a Hopper and three Joeys since they came out. I think the upgraded software is much better than it was at inception. I still get a freeze sometimes and have to rebooot, but over all it's a great system. To papalittle, the option to autotune is still there. I use it. I also think DIsh...

    Hopper S229 / S230 Feedback!

    This Hopper software upgrade/update/upurhiney thing is getting old. I have been putting up with it, since I don't really watch much.....some college football and some weekly programs. I recorded almost everything during the election process, to miss the ads, and that worked pretty well, as I...

    Hopper OTA USB problems

    I've been absent for quite awhile, but did get the OTA module as they were released. I ordered it the first day they were on the website and got it three or four days later. I've been wondering why every single day, I have no local channels. I installed it by the book, scanned, saved, etc and...

    When will Dish Remote (iOS) Truly Work??

    I saw this post and was reminded that I hadn't tried remote access lately, as it was always pretty lousy due, I'm sure, to many things such as Sprints really slow network, my less than optimal home network, and the Dish software. I jhust logged on my Android and it really works well. It started...

    Joey video freezes every couple of minutes

    kinda the same problem here. The Joey we use the most is on the deck, the farthest from the Hopper. A couple of times during a 2-3 hour sessin, the video/audio freezes, but not for a few seconds...forever. No amount of button pushing brings it back except turning the Joey off/on. I have no clue...

    Is Dish Remote Access still working for you?

    Noticed couple days ago the DOL is new. (software) It works really well on my Android, that is, after logging in 2-5 times! I e,mailed, but of course never heard anything. Not a bg problem, just one of those pains. I guess I could toggle a DIRT, but don't want ot bother one with such a small...

    We all live on farms or ranches ?

    I do have Dish because I live "in the sticks". Wouldn't have it any other way. If not for satellite,k I'd watch a little broadcast stuff and probably read more. No way would I ever live (again) "in the city" or fenced off in a "'burb". While just being alive isn't all that healthy, living in the...

    How are you watching Hell on Wheels season 2?

    I got an email from Dish on how to watch it, but I don't know what it is, so didn't read it

    Poll:Overall How Satisfied Are You With Your HJ System Performance? (post a why too!)

    Satisfied, overall. Any problems are rare, even with joeys. One lost its mommy one time, but a reboot reunited them. No OTA is worst, except I'd like to be able to use whole hard drive, as I don't use ptat, since I watch very little broadcast tv. Maybe new season will change that.

    Old Dish Customer with New Hopper Problems/Questions

    I also have an amp via HDMI and have noticed the audio sometimes is gone after a skip forward or backward, but it will come back after a few seconds - maybe 6-8, or stop and restart and it's there. Yeah, an HDMI handshake glitch, I beleive. As for skipping forward or back, I have no problem with...

    Hopper Crash - Won't turn on

    This happened to me a week or ten days ago, but I don't remember the record light being on. First thing in the morning, I tried to turn on the Hopper, but got no response with remote - just dead. Reset did nothing, so I unplugged it, plugged it back in and it's been working OK since. I asked a...

    Getting Ticked at Sling Adapter!

    Just tried Dish on Line a moment ago, and HOLY COW!! it worked pretty well. Took awhile to get started, but then OK. (Like 1-2 minutes). This on my main computer. What I don;'t like. on my android, many times, when I log on and go to the guide, it gives me what seems to be every channel in the...

    Getting Ticked at Sling Adapter!

    Weird, Weird, Weird...as I am having the opposite problems. My Android works pretty well, as good as ever, even tho I still get the weak video rarely, but Dish on Line never works. The older Dish app still works pretty good..forgot what it's called.

    Dishonline useless

    When did this start?? I have used the Dish on Line/Remote Access apps on several computers for as long as they have been around, with no problems...Usually. When I saw this thread, I realized that I hadn't used either one since getting satellite internet a couple months ago. I do use the...

    A thread for subs to request the 3D Olympic channel for DIRT

    I would really like to watch the Olympics in 3D, and would pay- like - 10 bucks or so extra for the two weeks in 3D. Have read much on the web about the opening in 3D, that it was fantastic. My latest 3D TV is a Sharp 70" and 3D Olympics would be awesome on it. I believe the bandwidth excuse is...

    Hopper S217 Feedback

    My Hopper/3 joeys worked well when first insalled several weeks ago. NOw, with the latest upgrade in software, The Hopper has Been "dead" three times, when trying to turn it on. No response from any remotes. Had to do a hard reset. Joeys are hit or miss, that is, when trying to change channels...

    Hopper S215 Feedback

    I got 215, and the only thing I have noticed is, my Western Digital EHD now is recognized. I dont use PTAT, as we don't watch very many network shows, so don't know about autohop. I have had some problems with recordings, that I hope are now fixed. Couple days ago, I had a one time timer for a...

    Is Dish going to provide the NBC 3D Channel for the Olympics?

    Well, I do watch 3D. It's kinda fun on occasion. Reminds me of the Long, Long Trailer, back in the 50's, in the theatre. (MOst of you probably have'nt a clue). Golf, in 3D, is great to watch. Maybe, if Dish, had Olympics in 3D, it would spur some more peeps to get into the 21'st century and get...

    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    Wonder why they send some USPS and some UPS?? I got mine today after only two days, USPS. Also got sat internet installed, today, and its the berries. Had Clearwire, which went south on me. They must be using SPrint's network or something. Installer said Dish bought Hughsnet...didn't know that.

    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    I did not get an offer, but when I called Dish, the first question I asked how much it would cost to cancel Dish. My hopper/3joeys were less than two months old. The young lady was super nice.....long story short, after about 35 minutes, I had a free roku coming, $15 per month off my bill, and...

    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    Do-it-yourself or friends?? Don't know how "handsy" you are, but when I was having trouble, I thouhgt a taller dish would solve the problem. It wa on a pole, maybe 5' off the ground. I took some pictures of the orientation of the dish for future reference in aiming and put in a 16', 2"id...
