Are the client ID's required for the Joey's to pair and see the hoppers? I'm not too clear on the purpose of the Client ID and how or where it comes from. Is the ID generated from the Duo or does the client ID get generated from dish and get pushed down to the Hopper? If it's pushed, I assume...

In a 2 Hopper and 3 Joey setup, do both Hoppers need a Client ID? I have an installer here right now and the first hopper came up fine and received it's client ID. The second hopper will not get a client ID. No Joeys have been hooked up at this point. Everything looks good on the duonode...

Yes...I have the antenna power supply. I will position it inside at my control panel.

I will give it a try. Thanks

The antenna is a Wineguard external. It was the antenna that Voom provided when I subscribed to their service a few years back. I got to keep the antenna when their service was cancelled and I moved over to Dish. If I get a new OTA antenna that does not require amplification, could I...

Wouldn't I have to get a power source outside to use the power inserter on the DPP44?

I have two dishes. One is used to get the 61.5 bird and the other dish pulls in 110, 118, and 119. I initially had problems getting a good signal on all 4 birds with the large single dish, so they added a second dish to pull in 61.5. When I run a check switch, I get the following device...

I have a couple diplexers and tried to diplex one of the Sat lines and the RR line together, but my modem would not sync. The Satellite worked fine, but the modem would not get a signal. I also tried to use the diplexer with the cable modem line and the OTA, but I hooked the OTA to the DC...

Okay, I have 5 runs of coax coming into my home and I do not have the capability to run another line. I currently have 4 LNB lines coming in from my two dishes (2nd dish is for 61.5) and the 5th is being used for my cable modem service. I have a nice OTA antenna that I want to run...

Ok...here's the update. The installer came this morning and put up a new Superdish. I now get 110,119,129, and 118 on the new Dish. My locals showed up after a few minutes, including the HD Locals. So far all of my HD Locals are showing up in SD 4:3 quality, but I assume that the...

110, 119, and 129 all show up when I run a switch test, so I assume 129 is coming through ok.

Same Here....I am without my standard def locals until my install in 2 weeks. Luckily I have an OTA antenna and can pick them up that way, but it still sucks. The tech said they had to remove them in order to add the new orbital to my account. Definitely a pain in the a$$ and it doesn't...

I currently have two 622 units and receive the full HD programming package. My neighbor got Direct TV the other day and told me he got his HD locals. I have been using an OTA antenna, so I haven't really followed up on the HD locals through Dish, but I started looking into it after hearing...

I think I found my answer based on the drawing posted from this topic. http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=91630

Ok...the installers just left, and here is the result: They replaced my DP34 with a DPP44 switch and did not have to replace any LNBs. The output from the DPP44 was run into a diplexer and the SAT line from the diplexer was fed to my TV location through a single coax run. The SAT out on the...
