Tried to update with tool. Started to update, rebooted and then came back. Tried tool again, and it says "Your receiver already has the latest software installed. SWID U526
Make sure no Joeys are on, or I'd unplug them and put the Hopper in Standby and it should start to d/l

Who is your internet provider and how is the Hopper connected? There have been issues lately with On Demand, mostly, but YT and Netflix issues still pop up

Is there a chance you can run Ethernet to the Hopper? Another choice would be to us e a Hopper Internet Connector, which I know Dis hCSR's are pushing right now and sending out to people, but depending on your setup, you may need a tech to install it

1080p guide looks sharper for sure. Also, perhaps unrelated, the bedroom Joey 2 now no longer seems slower than the Joey 2 in the Kitchen. The Bedroom is connected via MoCA, and the Kitchen is on Ethernet. The Kitchen Joey always seemed noticeably faster. Now they seem very similar.

The guide and menus are not 1080p, they are 1080i. Both my tvs show 1080i (one is a 4K tv with Joey 4k and the other a 4K HDR tv Hopper 3) and both have the Dec 4th update.
 
Netflix & YouTube still say that you are viewing 4K but the TV says it is 1080/60i. Everything is Gigabit hardwared. Comcast Internet at 200Mbps. Although the picture is amazingly crisp. The audio is still +15dB for everything except DISH HD programming. New Standby Slideshow. And it feels severely more responsive all the way around.

According to the people at DISH who provided the software it's 1080p. I think I'll believe them instead.
