    NFL Sunday Ticket 2013

    I called and threaten to leave due to the size of my bill (I only have a single DVR - HR24-500 with the Premier Package and Protection Plan and always paid on time.) Well, they told me right away that I had a lot of credits available to me. When it was all said and done, they gave me $69 worth...

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Thanks. They appear to be in good shape and are RG6, so it should make everything much easier for the tech, as I planned to have my HR24-500 unplugged and out of the way before he gets here. My window is between 4-8PM on Sept 3rd, so the quicker he gets this done, the happier we both will be.

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    I do have another question......I have 2 lines running into my house from the dish (I have an HR24-500) and there are 2 lines running into my DVR, I understand I need a single line SWM LNB and probably a power inserter (is a power inserter needed?) My question is...can the tech still use one of...

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Well, I checked my set up and I do have 2 cables running into the house, so I will need the single SWM LNB and the power inserter I assume. Anyway, I called and got what I wanted. I took them up on the free upgrade offer (due to having the protection plan) and the tech will come out on Sept...

    HR24-500 states "No Internet Connection"?

    I still find it strange that it will say I have no internet connection, but at the same time, I can go right ahead and download on demand shows and such and watch them. You would think it would state "connected" if I am able to download on demand stuff? I find this rather strange for sure?

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Bringing this thread back to life guys. :) So, If i have 2 coax lines currently running into my HR24-500, and I get the free upgrade to the Genie (hopefully the HR44), I would also need a single line LNB and a power inserter in this scenario, correct? If so, with the free upgrade to the Genie...

    HR24-500 states "No Internet Connection"?

    Thanks lacubs. Did that permanently fix it...or do you still need to do it once in a while? If so, about how often?

    HR24-500 states "No Internet Connection"?

    Thanks for the reply rob. So are you suggesting I unplug the router and wait 30 or so seconds and then plug it back in and try to "connect" again? I have done a restart (held in the red button on the front of the DVR) and that didn't work. I have not tried to "reset" the router. Has there been...

    HR24-500 states "No Internet Connection"?

    I have an HR24-500 connected to my Comcast Wireless Gateway Router via ethernet. I only have the HR24-500 and no other boxes, so I don't need any multiple room viewing features (MRV.) My question is......I am able to get any on demand stuff that I want with my DVR. No problem whatsoever doing...

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    So that will work with a SL5S dish on a HR 34? I only ask because it doesn't say it will work with a HR34 and it says it is for a LNB SWM 3? I understand the part about the 21V Power Inserter, but I am a little weary of what the ad states. I like the price, so I may I need to shop around a...

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Here is a better question...can I put a new SL5S LNB onto my satellite dish myself or is that something a tech should do? And since I have 2 tuners, I assume I would have 2 coax cables running from the dish, so if I can do it myself, would it matter what coax cable I could continue to use from...

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Darn!!! Thanks for the quick answer. It looks like a single wire LNB goes for $100. Is a new HR34-700 still around $400 "to lease" or are they lower than that now?

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Thanks for the responses guys. Looks like I have a Slimline 5 dish according to the info. But I have 2 tuners in the back of the DVR. Does this mean I need to get a LNB? By the way, what does LNB stand for?

    Do I need a new dish to get a HR34-700?

    Howdy everyone. I have a HR24-500 currently. I only have 1 DVR in the house and all I really want from the upgrade to the HR34 is the PIP. So, would I need a new SWM dish to go with the HR34 or am I already good to go?

    Expiring Affiliate Master List?

    Is there a a thread or master list somewhere around here that shows what affiliates are still in dispute and could possibly be dropped as of 1/1/11? I read a few weeks ago that my affiliate, WGAL here in Lancaster, PA might be dropped due to a dispute, and I haven't found anything that says it...
