Can a Hopper & a VIP receiver be connected like this: http://rvseniormoments.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/hopper_vip_network1.pdf
yes, BUT Business rules prohibit mixed VIP / Hopper accounts
?
That will work, however with 1 hopper there is still an open port on the lnb that would work also.
Ditch the 44 switch & save some $$.
And a second account unless an owned 211.So from the DISH . . . 2 lines to the Solo node and one line directly to a VIP receiver?

No, no, keep the DPP44 switch. With it you can easily add a second hopper and keep the VIP211(K) running with the addition of a duo node. This is exactly what I did.

Mmmm . . . that's a bit tough when you don't own a sticks & bricks.I would also recommend that you keep the 211 connected to your home system so that you can easily verify to the people at Dish that you aren't account stacking. Also any upgrade to the software/firmware will be downloaded and you can easily verify that the receiver is working prior to taking it out on a camping/tailgating trip.
Huh! I'm confused.Mmmm . . . that's a bit tough when you don't own a sticks & bricks.
