I think I was just lied to by Dish, and it's really pissing me off.
I called, as they requested me to after enabling PTAT, to provide feedback of how the DVR was functioning with active recordings. I was told by the tech guy (after somehow reviewing all my notes - which by now must be pages long - in one minute) that the engineers were currently "remotely fixing my Hopper", and that I should expect it fixed momentarily. He asked if I had it connected to the internet, and I asked, "If they're fixing it remotely, wouldn't they know??".
Does Dish actually remotely fix Hoppers one-by-one, by NOT pushing a firmware fix to all?? If not, I feel lied to by Dish, to just pacify me until my 30 day "trial" is over, and I'm locked into a two year contract. Any DIRTs with info on this?? Because I'm contacted daily by DirecTV to come back...and I'm seriously contemplating it.
