I've had a 722 for quite awhile now, 2 in fact. One of them has had issues lately like it wont stop fast forwarding and even locked up over the weekend. I woke up today, it's completely empty. I lost everything, settings, recordings, schedule, it's all gone. I put some back in, recorded a...

It only just started happening after several weeks, I dont think the router is the problem. I've reset the 722 a few times since then, so will try it again when my new switch comes in tomorrow.

What symptoms did you have besides the loss of Internet?

Forgive me, this should be in the Technical Discussions Forum...

Had a weird thing happen last night on my home network... Every device on my LAN lost internet connection and LAN connection for that matter. Couldn't even ping the gateway router across the LAN. After many hours and testing and swapping cables and equipment, I determined that if my 722 is...

I'm sorry you dont believe anything that hasn't personally happened to you, but I can only relay what happened to me, and what a Dish onsite technician told me. He probably has a lot more experience than you. No one anywhere near me has Dish.

Always lock down the PPV so you have to call to get them. I was getting charged for movies I never ordered every other month, and had no defense. I mentioned it to the tech who was recently here to put in a new 722 and he said that Dish will randomly put PPV movies on customer's bills to make...

DISH Network -- What's on DISH -- Promotion

The answer is get an OTA. I have a 942 with an antenna on the roof and get all my locals in HD via the OTA feed. In fact, I get about about 35 digital channels via the antenna.

I was in the same boat. After 3 921's, they gave up and sent me a 942 at no cost. This sounds goofy, but I'm in love with the 942, it's infinitely better than that POS 921.

I'm in the same boat and am scared to death of the 622 based on the posts here, especially since I want to use the HDMI connector that has chronic issues. It's still not where I would like to see it to make the switch. Don't get me wrong, I hate my 921, but at least the DVI connector works.

Are they ever going to fix this HDMI issues on the 622's? I STILL have my crappy 921 as my only choice is HDMI and if I get a 622 and the HDMI dies, I'm really screwed.

This has been quiet for some time now. Are the "newer" 622's not having the same issues? There is no way I am upgrading to a 622 if my HDMI is going to fail and I have to go through this nonsense.

Ah excellent, there's the answer I was looking for... a way to distinguish between the two. I have all blues so should be good to go! Thanx!!

All my OTA channels are like 004-1, 004-2, 005-1, I dont have and -0's in there. I pick up my OTA from Washington DC and surrounding areas, I cant imagine they would send an analog signal?
