It tuned out it was a faulty power supply for the EHD. New power supply and everything is functional.

I just received a new VIP211K to replace an existing VIP211. The receiver works fine but it will not recognize the EHD that I had on the old VIP211. I attached 2 EHD with no luck. I attached a flash drive to make sure the USB port was active and it was. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry Zach, not Matt. Thanks again for the help.

Matt, that was it. I wish they would put that in the manual.

I've looked in the manual but cannot figure out how to change the TV input on the Hopper/Joey remote.

I'm in the same boat. I have a detached garage that sits 125' from the house. It's tied into the main house panel, not a different residence. I was told it needs a separate account a few years ago. I installed an new dish and got an additional receiver. It too bad I can't get a Hopper system. If...

I think I remember someone quoted about 60 watts for the 722. If true, I would save 2x (622) 10 watts x 24 hours x 365 days x.35/kwatt = $60 savings per year. Not bad at all. Thanks statmanrich.

Now that the Hopper has been out for a couple of days, any updates on Hopper noise (Hard Drive Fan) compared to the 722/622. Also, any early power readings. I have 2 622s and 2 211s and need a slight push to go the H/J setup. By the way, my monthly rate would drop $6 if I upgraded.

OK, let's see if we can get another question answered. On March 15th, as a new Customer, do you have a choice of the Hopper/Joey setup or a VIP setup or just a Hopper/Joey setup.

Any update. My 622s both have the same issue. I've tried the setup change but it doesn't fix it.

RTCDude, thanks for the step by step instructions. I also got a dish that the elevation was stamped incorrectly. Followed your instructions and didn't get a signal. Pulled the Dish 500 off the ground, replacing with a Dish 1000.2 from Dishstore, and found the elevation on the old Dish was 9...

Navychop, You're right. All I do is watch more programs in HD than ever while hours of programming are backed up on the DVR ready for viewing. This doesn't suck.

My dad worked at JFK Space center at the time. Probably 6 or 7 miles out.

That's what I was told.
