Thanks for the input, I appreciate it.

I am not very technical so bear with me. I do not know what value there is by connecting my 722 to the internet. Can anyone give me an idea of what benefit this will provide?

Yesterday my 622 replacement that was installed just after New Years died. When talking to a tech support rep about my 622 problem she advised me that my base package was going up from 54.99 to 59.99 but would remain frozen for two years. She also informed me that because I am on auto pay, my...

I set this to 1080i, is that the correct setting?

Over the holidays I lost the HDMI port on our 622. I read horror story after horror story about Dish not caring about their customers to the point where I was afraid to call to get a replacement. I finally decided that I pay for HDMI performance so I called the Dish technical support people on...

Yesterday my son, who is an electrical engineerr, was looking at our connections of the 622 to our Samsung TV and could not get the HDMI option to even appear on the setup even though we have a HDMI cable in place. Everything works when we use Component cabling and he is sure that the problem...

I received a mailer from Dish called Gift #1 for a Free 922 DVR Upgrade. The Promo Code is FREEDVR455. I am guessing that they sent the invitation since I am out of contract. It does not sound like this would be of any benefit to me based to the replies to my post. Thanks.

Why is Dish offering to upgrade my VIP 622 to a 922. Is there any function available that is not on my 622?

Thanks using the pgup/pgown buttons did the job. Thank you for help.

I did select counters, and a list of stuff appeared on the screen however when I tried to select any of the options I was not able to highlight any of them so that I could find the temp readings. Is it possible that I am not on the most current release? There is absolutely nothing in the...

Checking 622 vip temperture I am not able to check the temp of my 622 vip. Went to diagnostic screen then counters and nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

Same results as yourself, it has been two or three shows and I think they all have been HD transmissions.

I have had a 622 receiver since mid August of this year and this past few days we have noticed a lag between the lip movement on the monitior and the audio that is being said. The first time it happened I pressed the power button on the front panel of the unit and reset it. Tonight when it...

Just installed dish with 622 and 311receivers. Decided not to get E* locals, instead downgraded my cable to basic for local networks and desire to use PIP split screen on our 1080p Samsung. By chance had huge storm come thru Sunday and completly lost E* signal, but still got to watch the end of...

Hey thanks a lot, finally got the hang of it. All in all it is pretty cool what you can do with DVR vs. VCR's.
