    Hopper 3 Upgrade Costs

    Just getting my upgrade installed today - going from 2 original hoppers and 3 original joeys to (1) Hopper 3, (1) 4K Joey and (3) Joey 2.0. I was only charged $50 for the 4K Joey and my monthly bill will actually go down $2. But I have been with Dish since 2000, am signed up for auto pay, have...

    Hopper S215 Feedback

    Thanks - I enabled the bridging on my hopper connected to the internet and my other hopper and Joeys picked up my network and show OK for DHCP, Server, and Internet, and green for broadband.

    Hopper S215 Feedback

    I was just able to fix the issue due to some info on page 4 of this thread. When the DIRT team posted the way to enable the bridging, they did not clarify that the bridging should be enabled on the hopper connected to the home network. Once I enabled the bridging, the other hopper and joeys...

    Hopper S215 Feedback

    No - only one hopper has the wifi adapter and the joeys can see both hoppers. The internet connection was being passed along perfectly fine until 215/267 were released and now we have 216/268.

    Hopper S215 Feedback

    I am not sure what s215 & 267 included. I have 2 hoppers & 3 joeys. With 213 & 265, all of my problems stopped when I disconnected one of the two wireless adapters I had on my hoppers. I had one hopper hooked up to my home network via wireless and the other hopper and all Joeys setup via...

    Hopper S213 Feedback and Issues

    I have 2 hoppers & 3 joeys and was experiencing much of the same issues people were reporting on here. I also had a tech come out and he replaced the dish node switch and 1 hopper, but I was still having the issues. I noticed in this thread that it was mentioned that multiple network...

    3 MONTHS FREE PLAYBOY

    Just finished chatting with a Chat CSR who denied any of the promotions mentioned in this thread exist. I just can't fathom that in today's world, with this informative forum and the DIRT team here, that CSR's online or on the phone can be so ignorant or just flat out lie about what is available.

    11 Years of Seniority lost

    Well I am glad to report that I was able to speak with a member of the executive team and they helped resolve the problem for me and gave me a great deal on an upgrade package to 2 hoppers and 3 joeys.

    11 Years of Seniority lost

    I became a dish customer in 2000 when I lived in Maryland. I moved in 2003 and utilized dish movers to relocate my account and equipment to Missouri. I am in the military, so in June 2011 I moved to Texas, but my family remained at my Missouri address. When I arrived to Texas, I wanted to...

    Hopper Upgrades

    First thank you for your assistance. I currently have 5 HDTV's in my home with one 722, one 612, and one 322. If I am looking to have the ability to have DVR services to each TV, what configuration will I need from the Hopper/Joey setup and how much is it going to cost me? Please PM me.

    Upgrading to 211 - Metal Confusion

    I looked at the pricing, but one thing that is missing is how many receivers are included in those prices. Does anyone know the answer to that

    New Receivers and New Packages

    OK folks, after speaking to another rude and unimformed CSR, I finally spoke with a floor supervisor. My hopes were destroyed. The supervisor advised me that the CSR had scheduled me for an installation of a 522, (not sure how you can talk all about the 622 features and HDTV and confuse that...

    New Receivers and New Packages

    I will call them back, but the CSR charged my cc just $49 and identified a VIP 622 as the receiver I will get installed. I am also giving them 2 receivers instead of 1, maybe that is the other difference. I am not sure maybe if the length I have been with Dish is a factor, but I also am on a...
