    Hopper 3 hard drive swap?

    Not sure what it might be. System is in a fan cooled entertainment center. Running on surge protector backed up by UPS. Single straight RG6 cable run to the splitters <15' from the receiver. No issues w/Roku, Netflix on the Sharp 70" tv. Did have a Netflix issue on the Hopper that...

    Hopper 3 Start up loop

    Rep said External will show up on new receiver because that encryption is tied to the account but the internal hard drive encryption is tied to the firmware in the receiver. My point is that from now on anything I want to keep, will be on external 2tb not the internal.

    Hopper 3 hard drive swap?

    Just got off with Executive Escalations. They are telling me that this Hopper 3 receiver is dead, that my DVR recordings can not be salvaged as the internal hard drive encryption is tied directly to the firmware of that receiver. It was on a solid surface in a well ventilated area. They are...

    Hopper 3 Start up loop

    Do I just got off the phone with "Executive Escalation" dept. I had gone around with them before over the Netflix too fast internet issue. (See: http://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/too-fast-internet-issues.362178/ ) Was dealing with them just 2 weeks ago when the signal died because the...

    Hopper 3 Start up loop

    Not getting that far. Only to the "starting up...." in the lower right corner.

    Hopper 3 hard drive swap?

    Yes. No power failure, can't tell if it's a hard drive issue because the system won't get past the "starting up" portion of the boot. Question? Is the OS for the hopper on the hard drive? I thought it was on memory in the unit and the hard drive was just for DVR.

    Hopper 3 Start up loop

    Not sure how I could unpair the remote without the Hopper booting.

    Hopper 3 hard drive swap?

    Looks like yet another Hopper 3 has died. This one is stuck in a boot up loop. I have 1tb of recordings (including a pile of my wife's Christmas movies) on the drive. Is there any way to swap that drive into a new Hopper 3?

    Hopper 3 Start up loop

    Anyone have this issue? After losing access to the Hopper 3, tuners not accessible, dvr not playing, I did a reboot and got the following; As usual, first try was the reset button on the hopper. Got the "Hopper starting up" 480i splash screen, then black, then the "Hopper starting up" 720p...

    Too fast internet issues

    FYI: Running an Asus RT-AC68U router on Time Warner 300mbps internet. Ookla speed test comes in at between 210mbps and 285mbps. I am not using 4k in the house.

    Too fast internet issues

    So I have been going through a lot of internet issues with Dish on both the Hopper 2 and Hopper 3. Download failures but more importantly a total inability to get Netflix to work on either the Hopper 2 / Joey or Hopper 3/Joey 2 system. ui-113 (can't connect) and nw-101 (no internet) errors...

    Hopper 3 / Netflix ui-113

    After having the Hopper 2 system replaced by Dish to solve the Netflix ui-113 error, I'm getting the same error on the Hopper 3 system. It's hit or miss to get Netflix to go. Seems like the logo loads and then if there is a screen flash, it fails w/the ui-113 error. It still shows green...

    Resetting up timers after H2>H3 upgrade

    So you'd have to link the Hopper 2 remote to the Hopper 3 in order to transfer the 'settings' back from the Hopper 2 remote to the Hopper 3 receiver?

    Resetting up timers after H2>H3 upgrade

    OK: Figured it out. From the "Search", if it shows only previously recorded events, and there is no "Record When Available" option, hit the "SKIP BACK" button and the "Record When Available" shows up. Very non-intuitive.

    Resetting up timers after H2>H3 upgrade

    Yes but the Hopper 3 doesn't use the same timer as the Hopper 2. If you read the post, " timers that I had on the Hopper 2 on the Hopper 3. you'd see that I'm asking about recreating them on the Hopper 3.
