    WANTED Winegard Pathway X2

    Sorry about my previous post. I meant 72, not 61.5. 72 has very little programming. I would be very happy if I could tune to 61.5.

    WANTED Winegard Pathway X2

    This is just my opinion but I think you might be better off getting another system. With the Pathway X2 if you want to have two televisions watching different channels it will only access the 61.5 satellite. That satellite has a very limited selection of channels available. I have the X2 and...

    Hopper and 211z external hard drive

    I'm quite sure this has been addressed many times on this forum but I just can't seem to get the correct search terms to find the posts. I have a Hopper3 and an external hard drive connected to it. We also have a 211z that we use with a portable satellite dish while on vacation. Is there any...

    Access point weak?

    Is there any way to increase the range of the access point? I posted before about a weak signal in an upstairs room. One of the suggestions was to move the AP. So I ran some CAT5 in the wall to an unused upstairs bedroom and installed the AP there. I would still occasionally lose the signal...

    Low signal strength to wireless joey

    Thanks. I hadn't thought of relocating the access point. How long an Ethernet cable could I use before affecting the signal? I would have to run it in a crawl space under the house for at least 50 feet and back up to another room.

    Low signal strength to wireless joey

    We have a hopper with three wireless joeys and for several months we have had no problems. But now we are experiencing low signal strength to one of our upstairs joeys. The signal strength varies between about 18 and 30 and stays in the yellow most of the time. It seems to be worse in the...

    Dish Anywhere on Hopper 3

    Thanks for the help. It looks like the problem is solved. I installed the app on my Android tablet and it had me pair the receiver with the tablet. This didn't happen on my phone. Everything worked fine. I went back to the phone and found a little obscure "More" on the bottom right that took...

    Dish Anywhere on Hopper 3

    It doesn't matter how I select it. All it will tune to is What's on Dish and then changes to "Test Channel" Your receiver is tuned to orbital 61.5. I don't get the "Hop to Channel" option. It's like Dish Anywhere doesn't connect to a tuner or ot doesn't recognize that I'm a customer. I...

    Dish Anywhere on Hopper 3

    I seldom use the Dish Anywhere app but I would like to have it available just in case. I'm having problems getting it to work with our new Hopper 3. I can connect to the Hopper and get the guide and even watch shows that we have recorded on the Hopper. But I cannot watch live TV. When I try...

    Inactive 211Z

    I have a 211Z that has not been used in over a year. It is on our account and we have been paying the monthly charge for it. We bought it for use in our motorhome but we have been bringing our Hopper with Joeys instead. I have a Dish 500 antenna that I don't use anymore and I have connected...

    On Demand Channels

    I do not have wireless Joeys. They all have coaxes going to them. Just to make sure that we're on the same page, I disconnected both the router and the WAP and the Joeys are still operating. Bridging status is OK. When I go to Test Connection I get "Broadband Connection OK. Downloading at...
