    No Vide on Joey

    Update on my issues. I was out of town on Saturday and the Hopper did not have a Client ID that morning. Today is Sunday and now I have a Client ID. I did the reset procedures on the Joeys and now they both work. As far as video, I connected the composite cables and that worked. I configured the...

    No Vide on Joey

    Yeah, I haven't been able to find Client ID on that page anywhere all day. I'm going to let it sit in standby overnight and see what happens. My retailer has additional Joeys on order so I may be stuck without it for at least 4 more days, ugh. Oh well, growing pains eh?

    At this point I can only recommend visiting this link http://www.satelliteguys.us/hopper-zone/279345-joeys-wont-link-11.html#post2809828 in hopes that it will resolve the issues.

    I ended up having to hook up RCA cables to get it working. Now I've got the 1303 error to go away but no software download and no link. Any other ideas?

    Except he's already tried two Joey's and those are the only ones he has.

    He installed a single node. I'm going to be running a 1 Hopper 2 Joey configuration.

    No Vide on Joey

    Installer was here trying to get my new Hopper/Joey setup done. It is his first Hopper install and he works for a retailer so I don't think he goes through the standard training channels. Anyway, he got the Hopper installed, it came up with some smart card errors, did a factory reset, and then...

    722K - you had me at hello

    10 days old but I just wanted to give my opinion. I think that they should just use the existing 211's and turn them in to players and just link the 612's, 622, and 722's via ethernet network. That seems to be the most cost effective and wouldn't cause a loss of quality nor would it spill any...

    New Coax Run...Why Do I Have to Bury it Myself?

    When I worked at the cable co the max we could do is 300' of RG-11. Anything past that would've had to have been hard line which costs $$ so we would charge the customer for that. I've never ran in to an install that needed hard line unless the tap was on the other side of the street.

    New Coax Run...Why Do I Have to Bury it Myself?

    You own the dish, and all the cables. You are technically responsible for the dish and the cables after the installation or a month or two after the installation. This is why they offer the protection. You must understand that neither Dish or DirecTV operate the same way as a cable company...

    New Coax Run...Why Do I Have to Bury it Myself?

    Where I live Verizon and the Cable Co will trench for free. It makes sense. If they don't provide a service line then they don't get the customer.

    New Coax Run...Why Do I Have to Bury it Myself?

    The cable company would be responsible for the cable between the street and your house. Satellite's equivellent is that they are not technically responsible for any premise equipment or cabling. They offer a 4 room install for free, outside wiring only, unless pre-wired. The satellite is...

    Component to CAT5 is an option. I may do that when we get ready to have our house built. What would be easier is if Dish would enable DVR Playback from a 622 to a 411 over TCP/IP.

    New Coax Run...Why Do I Have to Bury it Myself?

    When I worked for the cable company we would run that 250' of wire from a house to a garage. However, you better have a conduit already buried for us, and you get to pay for the amplifier. Burying a 250' cable is alot of work, and would probably cost the installer more than they get paid doing...

    You won't believe the Install I saw tonight!

    This is the dilema I am having. I want a 42" LCD for the bedroom, and I have my 61" in the living room, which are about 50 ft apart. :( It's easy to be in two seperate rooms when you are married ;)

    You won't believe the Install I saw tonight!

    I don't understand why they didn't at least use the component cables that came with the 622. The second TV will not have HD unless hooked up to its own receiver. I really wish Dish would have an ATSC RF Out on the Second TV Output. Although I understand they are running in to issues because of...

    Great External Drive Deal

    Lucky me, I was able to get a Maxtor OneTouch4 500GB External Hard Drive for $79.99 at Staples on Black Friday with rebates.

    Budget - RG6 Compression Tools?

    The blue handled PPC crimper is probably one of the better ones under $50. If you are really pinching pennies go with the non-racheting crimper. Go to Home Depot and get the RCA coax strippers for $10. They work great. My preference for connectors is Gilbert or Thomas & Betts Snap-n-Seal. PPC...

    Response from E* on TBS HD

    I think instant replays are great. However, it would take away from the relationship between the Umps and the Team/Fans. Who doesn't like to see the ocassional argument. The call never changes, but if the team got the chance to review a call then we would never give a crap about the Ump. Face...

    Response from E* on TBS HD

    I'm rather upset that TBS doesn't seem to care much about its viewers and the fact that most of them would prefer a HD source instead of an SD source. BTW, congrats Padres on the win! Here's what I found on MLB.com: Haha, jk. I did find that pic on MLB.com... However, congrats Rockies!

    How can I tell if my dish is grounded properly?

    Your post is contradicting itself. If you have a ground problem then adding a ground bypass would get rid of the problem. But, in the case of a surge or short, it will create even bigger problems. Having your coax grounded is extremely important. The problem he is having sounds like a ground...

    Where is USB External Storage for the 942/ViP622?

    I'm hoping for more than just a external hard drive feature. I would like both external storage and network storage capabilities. I'm looking at getting a 42" LCD for the bed room and since TV2 on the 622 is not Hi-Def I have to get either a second DVR or a 211. I would rather get the 211 and...

    INDEMAND will carry MLB EI? No so fast says MLB... How about E*?

    D* and MLB intend on this deal being fully exclusive. But they are being pressured to accept other offers. If they make a reserve price on their contracts with certain conditions that are off the wall then the likelyhood of actually getting additional contracts is slim. But, at least they can...
