That's what happened to me. Got the new interface on my original hopper and it was a slow, error prone mess. Now have a new Hopper 3.

Same, sometimes multiple times to get it to play.

I received both without even threatening to leave. Dish is taking this seriously, and they should. I can move to DTV, have FNC and save $500 the 1st year.

February of 98 for me, bought my setup at Costco. A 4700 and 2700 receiver, about $300 IIRC. Installed them with the help of my teenage son, that was an experience, especially aligning the dish! Boy ain't that the truth! Dish should award us old timers all purple hearts for all the crap we put...

Amen!

It doesn't matter to me who is the "problem". I subscribe to a service, if that service ceases to provide what I value then I'll switch to one that will. Dish has made a business decision and so will I.

What are you talking about? I simply reported what I was told, no where did I imply " that is feeling of everyone?" "Doubtful at best:" Yeah, sure, whatever makes you happy...

I've been a Dish subscriber for almost 17 years but this is getting old really fast. I spoke to a CSR and she said they are getting hammered over this, way more than they expected. I still have access to FNC via my broadband provider but if this isn't resolved soon I'm done with Dish.

Yep. Fell asleep again. Wife still likes it but I'm done.

Ditto..

320 - The thing would frandomly freeze up during disk playback and the audio for streaming service VUDU just stopped working. Posted Using The New SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Just got mine a few weeks ago and love it so far. Replaced a Panasonic that was a huge disappointment. Don't know what happened to Panasonic, Ive always had great luck with their players, but it seems cheap now trumps performance. Posted Using The New SatelliteGuys Reader App!

A reboot isn't necessary. Just flash one of your telephone handsets on-off hook a couple of times and the dial tone will return.
