I didn't see any release notes for S210, but it looks like we're going to start spooling S211 now.

Awesome, thanks!
My hoppers have a habit of being in the first batch to receive updates. Guess there was something broken in 210 that they had to fix in 211

I've never seen such an aggressive firmware rollout.
We cant say they're sitting on their thumbs!

My original Hopper was like that. All the new releases banged out the first night they were available. But, I just replaced it. And, the new one is stuck on 209/261. I miss 210/262.
I do hope 211 fixes the default guide issue, and intermittent CC during playback.
Both my Hoppers went to S211 last night (one from S209, the other from S210). Unclear what the differences are.
Both went from 209/261 to 211/263 this morning. I have been receiving updates late, usually 4-6 days after release. Wonder what happened here?
Both of mine got S211 overnight. One was on S209, the other on S210.
I haven't checked the Joeys but I think they were put on S263. One of them rebooted overnight.

One thing I quickly notice about 211 is that my CC is working a lot better. It no longer underscrolls (no garbled lines) and it works thru fwd skips much more reliably than it used to.
Putting your receiver in Standby will force a download but only if your receiver is targeted for the download. Software updates are released to a limited number of receivers at a time based off the receiver number.
I'm disappointed that my new replacement Hopper isn't on the first-run list. My previous Hopper got every update immediately. I enjoyed that.
I think it would be a good idea to allow SatGuys members to request inclusion in the first run of updates. We would be much more useful to Dish engineers for QA in the wild, as we pay attention to all of the little things, and report them on the forum. Why not use that resource?

Dish should add a cheat code or a button on the updates panel to the Hopper so those of us who want to can force an update. Then they will have very fast feedback of any problems or bugs and we would stop complaining about not getting the latest update.

You forgot start!
Can't find the B and A buttons?
That's an old cheat code for Nintendo games. There isn't a way to force a software download
