    522 Post superbowl issue?

    i've had this same problem in the past. i haven't really tried to isolate the fix for it, but either wait until all recordings are done, or shut off the reciever, turn it back on, it should work. also, if you try it on one tv and it doesn't work, try it on the other. the show isn't lost, but it...

    guide sorted "backwards"

    no you're fine...i started it, so i'll allow it :) it's related anyway. when you think about it, it does make sense to press up and get the higher channels, but i think when you're accustomed to it being the opposite, it's hard to adjust to dish's way of doing things. if i had grown up on...

    guide sorted "backwards"

    yeah, i tried searching around for it, but couldn't find anything...just wanting to see if anyone had any luck finding something. i'm just so use to my old cable (sorry, i had to say it)

    guide sorted "backwards"

    This isn't a big deal, but when you hit the guide button the channels are listed with the lowest channel on the buttom, making you page up to go through the list. I'm so use to paging down to get the higher channels that it's a bit annoying. Is this something with just the 522 or is that the way...

    necessity of phone line?

    good idea...didn't think about that. it would save me the hassle of running a new line...although it would be a project to keep me busy...not that i'm not already busy enough :)

    Another one bails.....

    well, i just got rid of my cable dvr, only because I moved to an area that is covered by adelphia, and they do not offer dvr...and they're pretty expensive. I really liked the dvr Time Warner had...really no complaints. the only problem i had, was some choppiness in sound of movies on demand and...

    necessity of phone line?

    i know you need a phone line to recieve updates. how often do you actually need the line to be connected? The reason i ask is that the closest working phone line is in a different room than my tv. I eventually will run a line to the tv, but in the mean time, if i only need it hooked up...

    no install - hopefully not a sign of things to come

    i understand being over booked...and i wouldn't have really cared if it was just him being late...but don't tell me it's because you have to drop your girlfriend off somewhere...at least make something up or just don't give an excuse. i also don't think the mix up with not having the dish to...

    no install - hopefully not a sign of things to come

    well...i was all excited this past saturday. I was moving to a new house and the dish guy was supposed to come between 8 and 12 to install my dish and get me all set up. well...i got a call around 11 or so from the installer saying that his boss handed him the order late and he didn't know...
