    Dish Network Home Protection Plan : Older Receiver models

    I dont think its the switch, because I connected the receiver directly to the DPP44 switch and still had the problem. Meanwhile my vip211 has no problem at all. I already have the HD Bronze package. So I dont think they will give me a vip211 as a 811 replacement. Moreover I own the 811...

    Help : DP44 with Vip211 and 811 receivers

    I forgot to mention earlier that 3 of the inputs ( 110, 119 & 121 ) are coming from superdish whereas 61.5 is coming from a dish 500 with a single LNB ( Thanks for showing me what barrel connecter is ) I have one barrel connector, in the cable run which is almost certainly not rated for 3...

    Help : DP44 with Vip211 and 811 receivers

    This is something ( swapping 211 & 811 ) I should have done earlier. I just finished doing that. Unfortunately 811 still doesnt work at 211's location either By the way I noticed that, in the switch test screen, after the test I see Device : Feed Dual Dual Feed corresponding to each 4...

    Help : DP44 with Vip211 and 811 receivers

    ( You are right it was DPP44 ) I checked/confirmed that the power strip was connected to port 1 I also redid the input ports so that it was in the order of 119, 110, 61.5 & 121 ( What was the basis of this requirement ) But to my dismay, there was no change at all. I noticed the...

    Vip211 / L344 : Still No HDMI, Am I the only one

    Hmm that will be very sad. I dont think I can get any support from dish as I bought this receiver myself. As far as I know if you buy your own receiver, you wont get any replacement from dish. Also I dont understand, It worked perfectly fine for about a year before I noticed that the HDMI has...

    Vip211 / L344 : Still No HDMI, Am I the only one

    For the past 4 months or so, my receiver stopped giving HDMI. At that time I was seeing many posts with people complaining about HDMI going dead. But now it looks like HDMI is working for most of the people. Mine is still dead. Is there anything I can do about it ? Are there others still...

    Dishnetwork satellite angles

    I have an 811 HD receiver. But I was not subscribing to any of their HD programming. They said it is not possible for me to activate any HD programming as this is an older Mpeg2 model. So I decided to purchase a vip211 for 200$ from ebay. I have a superdish and a seperate one covering...
