    Dish internet service

    When I changed to Dish from my cable Co. they gave me a good deal on the internet service, but only for one year then it doubles. Has anyone got Dish internet and if so what is the DL speed and is it stable, also the cost of the service. I hate to change and have to set up new email accounts as...

    Phone & Internet?

    Thanks for the reply, I thought that is what I had to do but was not sure, that is why I asked. Ordered today over the phone and the sales rep acted and spoke like he didn't care if I ordered or not. Maybe he is just tired of winter and was having a bad day. Anyhow thanks again for the reply.

    Phone & Internet?

    OK, I'm pretty much sold on Ooma but had a question on installation and phoned Ooma CS, my first mistake, the young lady that I spoke to didn't have an answer to my question and proceeded to tell me how Ooma worked, I asked her if there was someone there that had technical knowledge that I...

    Phone & Internet?

    Checked out Ooma and it looks like something I may get. If you make a lot of LD calls there is an international plan, I don't so its a moot point.

    Ethernet cable?

    OK, how do you get the sling adapter for free? When I am on the Dish site and add it to my package it adds $99 to my summery. Or is it just the service that is free?

    Ethernet cable?

    I'm thinking of going to Dish after July 31st if the replay servers go down and there is no way to get the EPG after that date. I was looking on the Dish site and when it shows the rear of the 722k it has an Ethernet input, in the notes it says for future use. Is there no use for it at present...

    Dish Payment Enforcement

    The reason people want to pay on the 3rd of the month is that is when the get their Social Security check. But this comes back to maybe Dish could make some kind of arrangement with these subs to be able to pay on the 3rd. Or the sub should just cancel if the payment is too much for their fixed...

    Looking for new receiver.

    Thanks for the replies, this sounds like it might fill the bill, I like that it downloads any firmware from a satellite as most firmware is in a windows file and I can't open some of them on my Mac and would have to borrow a windows laptop from a friend to download update to a USB flashdrive...

    Looking for new receiver.

    My Neusat SP6000 died, I tried to load the 6000SP production bin into it but to no avail, guess it's time to get a new receiver. I see CNX Nano for sale at dealers for $99, not the Nano 2 just the Nano. Is this a good receiver? I have tried to search on here for a review but no luck. Or can...
