    Hopper Spoofing? New install wreaking havoc on home network

    rharkins, D.Manley thanks for the notes. Yes, I suspected my quite old primary router - a Dlink was the actual source of the problem. Sense a trend? I mean, I JUST now swapped out my 622. Swapped out the Dlink with a brand new Netgear and all is right with the world. Now, on to putting my...

    Hopper Spoofing? New install wreaking havoc on home network

    Just had a Hopper and two Joey's installed, replacing my old 622 and 612. I was so looking forward to joining the 21st century. But since the installation my router is complaining about spoofing on the internal network. For example, I plugged my Hopper in, and immediately my router complains...

    Slingbox with DishAnywhere - How?

    Thanks for that insight Tampa8. When the original Slingbox app came out with a $30 price tag and lukewarm reviews, I blew it off. Since the DRA worked OK for me, I never reconsidered. It's good to hear the latest (and apparently, well overdue) update is pretty good. It might be time to...

    Slingbox with DishAnywhere - How?

    Thanks all for responding. The Dish Remote app used to allow me to connect to my 622/Slingbox combo seamlessly - no Slingplayer app needed. Since the Dish Remote app was 'upgraded' to Dish Anywhere, that capability stopped working. Apparently, Dish did this with intent - I guess I'm not...

    Slingbox with DishAnywhere - How?

    Anyone know how to get Dish Anywhere to work with a classic Slingbox (mine is a Slingbox HD Pro)? It used to work until recently. My Slingbox is connected to a 622 and I was previously able to watch live TV (or DVR recordings) via the Slingbox using the Dish iPhone, iPad and Android DISH apps...

    Have 622. Want HD on 2 tv's. Options?

    Good point TK. In may case, single mode is desirable as I just gotta have that PiP/split screen capability for my evening channel surfing sessions. :) My primary reason for asking was to verify that the 622 won't disable the component output if it detects an HDMI device is connected.

    Have 622. Want HD on 2 tv's. Options?

    I want to connect my 622 - in single mode - to both my HD TV (via HDMI) and my Slingbox Pro HD (via component video + audio). I understand that the TV and the Slingbox will have to 'watch' the same channels, but that's perfectly acceptable for my purpose. Will this work?

    TV Goes black, Sound stays on??

    Happened to me This has happened to me a few times lately. It only occurs when I'm using PiP swapping a lot. Only recovery for me has been to reboot.

    What no one will tell you about HDTV...

    Please don't kill this thread. It is much more entertaining than reading the threads lamenting the lack of, and predicting the future of SciFi and USA HD. :)

    Average 622/722 Temperature thread, Is your's Hot?

    My avg temp is 132F Since I first read this thread, I've checked my 622's temp from time to time. It has consistently indicated min-122F, avg-132F, max-140F. The ambient temp is low in the open-backed cabinet where the 622 sits, and the vents are unblocked. Reading some of the responses in...

    Some Interesting Dish Info

    I think there should be no charge for external HD storage for those that lease or will be leasing the HD DVRs. The $40 fee for those that buy the receivers is understandable since Dish Network has money invested in this new feature AFTER the hardware was purchased. :D Hmm. I guess it...

    lower signal strength

    I had a similar problem in February (which isn't a big leaf blooming month in Chicago). It turned out to be a bad LNB. Check your LNB drift values (and references to same in these forums)

    I got L4.01 yesterday

    The HD logos are there (ho hum); they don't apply to OTA. The HD map-down working as advertised. The split screen looks OK. The "location" button (left-most) apparently becomes a split-screen/no split-screen toggle; kinda nice. Now the gripes . . . All my local channels (not OTA) take 10...

    Can't get Fox OTA

    You need to insure you are adding channels manually by using their DIGITAL channel assignment. You can find these on the web. For example, here is a list provided by Antennas Direct, http://www.antennasdirect.com/HDTV_station_lists.html

    Can't get Fox OTA

    I had a problem with my ViP622 where it would not detect any of the OTA channels when scanning. I manually added them and it worked fine. Most of the signals are quite strong and I've not had a problem since.
