    Best way to get two HDTV hooked up?

    Or you could do what I just did and spend ~$13 extra each month and get a free vip 622 and put it in your bedroom. It's free through dish it up promotion. Then when the 922 is released, I pay the upgrade fee and get rid of the 622 and move the 722 to the bedroom. Now I have - 2HD and 2SD...

    HomePlug built into the 622, How cool is that?

    You are probably right, about the power strip/surge protector, but the homeplug feature is so cool that I will most likely keep it that way. I may go ahead and change my dvd player and sound system to another surge protector, but the 722 will stay where it is.

    HomePlug built into the 622, How cool is that?

    Awesome find Cyclone! I have been using a cheap set of 14mbps homeplug ($20 each) devices for the past month and was thinking of buying a third so that I could connect my 722 unit. Once I read your post, I looked at my connection status, and presto! I'm already online. I have been assigned...

    Ready to switch back to Dish! (left in 2004) Couple of questions.

    I live in Leander, tx, and I pick up all the locals with a $22 phillips HD UHF antenna that I bought a walmart. I did not even bother getting a compass out. I just pointed the antenna in the direction of Austin and bada bing.....I have HD! To bad you only get HD shows during prime time hours.
