    Hopper 3 external drives have disappeared

    My H3 stopped recognizing my Toshiba 3GB drive a few months ago, recognized it for a few days this week, but is back to not recognizing it. So frustrating.

    Did anyone try (successfully) to transfer shows to Hopper 3 with ethernet cable?

    Sorry to bump this old thread, but I was wondering if Dish has added the ability to transfer recordings using the old UI. I have an original Hopper (S614), so I can't upgrade to the Carbon UI. I'm wanting to upgrade to a H3, but I hate having to buy an EHD just to transfer a few recordings.

    Thinking of upgrading to hoppers

    I have a Hopper installation scheduled for this Friday. This is my current configuration: A 722K that services our family room TV via HDMI and a small TV in the kitchen via coax. A 722 that services the basement and den via an HDMI splitter and a bedroom via coax. Both receivers are set to...

    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    I did, and I went to great lengths to detail to the support rep how I've seen every episode of Breaking Bad, Mad Men and Walking Dead. No dice. I was more than a bit surprised.

    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    I used chat to talk to support (he suggested Blockbuster @Home DVD package :rant:). I asked to be transferred to loyalty, and they offered me the $10/month for a year but no Roku. Given I've been a Dish customer for about 15 years, I was a bit surprised. I told them I'd think about it. Is it...

    DISH HOPPER SPEC SHEETS

    I currently have my 722k connected to a small kitchen TV via coax that displays the same picture as my family room TV connected via HDMI. Using a Hopper, can I continue to connect to the small TV via coax or will that TV require a Joey?

    722k going to "Partial Signal Loss" at random

    I'm seeing this on both my 722K and 722. Never saw it before the latest firmware.

    What can you do with a 721?

    I'm facing this same decision. I would just send it back for $10, but I suppose I could use the hard drive for something. Does anyone know how big the hard drive is in a 721?

    Simplified DISH pricing list

    Isn't this an either/or situation? If you lease, you pay the lease fee but don't pay the extra recvr fee. If you own, you pay the extra recvr fee but obviously don't pay the lease fee.

    Post your COMMENTS about the Upgrade Here

    Ok, so if I subscribe to a metal HD package, is there any additonal charge for recording OTA HD? Does the $6/month fee only apply when not subscribing to a metal package?

    Post your COMMENTS about the Upgrade Here

    Can I use Dish'n It Up to lease a 622 without commitment to a metal HD package? I would like to use the 622 to record SD and OTA HD for now. Would they just charge me the additional $6/month fee, or is a metal HD package a requirement?

    Lease or own MPEG4 receivers

    It is my understanding (and someone correct me if I'm wrong), that there is a $4.99/month lease fee, but a leased receiver will not have the typical $4.98 additional receiver fee. So essentially you will be paying an additional $.01/month.

    Can anyone confirm 942s, 811s, 921s can't be newly activated ?

    It certainly sounds like the bottom is going to drop out of the eBay market for 811, 921, and 942 receivers.

    721 receiver for $299?

    :eek: I wonder what the problem is. They said they would ship mine today, but they've already said that three days ago and again yesterday. I'm hopeful, but getting a little concerned.

    721 receiver for $299?

    I ordered mine last Wednesday (eight days ago) for $249 shipped and installed. I expected it to ship late last week and arrive here in the middle of this week, but even after repeated calls, it still hasn't shipped. I convinced them to ship it next day, so I hope to get it tomorrow, but I've...
