I used to be an installer and I have 1 hopper 3 joeys. One Joey wired. The other two wifi only and to this day I have not had one single issue on ANY of mine. I installed some customers wireless joeys too to save time on line runs or picky customers.

Technically it would increase the speeds of the Joey more so than the hopper IMO. How much of an increase? Maybe MS? I used to be an installer for DNS and honestly it probably isn't worth your time. Unless the node itself is exposed to weather or its an eyesore to you wherever it may be...

True. Karma doesn't involve regrets.

I have no remorse for dish on this one. It was childish of them to disqualify Dish but karma is a bitch sometimes. America's worst company to work for... Complete disrespect for hard working employees and shady business earned them this one. And yes, I am an ex installer for dish. But still...

( dish network installer answer If you are honest with the tech and explain what you are trying to do he should have no problem doing what you are asking. Tell him if the quality assurance guy shows up you will ask him to leave. That's our biggest fear. We love to use existing equipment as...

I don't know about you... But I would rather successful baby steps than one giant disaster step.

So now the local affiliates will add advertisements at the bottom of the screens DURING the shows. Like fox does with it's own programming once in awhile Just a prediction. But I could see it happening more and more =\

That's good news. I was pretty bummed out that I couldn't listen to pandora on the joeys in my house. But I could check my Facebook ( cool feature that I probably won't use ) but I'm excited to be able to have pandora everywhere

But if there's enough demand it will be re-added...... .... For a fee of course

My hopper has been randomly doing this as well. And locking up a lot more this past week. I have had it since day 1 so hopefully it's just a software issue.

Depends on the market. Here in Sacramento DTV lost their local fox station.. That's pretty major in my book

Might want to check ventilation. Mine is basically silent as well minus a reboot/startup

Netflix will never be on there... Unless dish buys them too.

So basically if we get 2 hoppers before they are able to see each other... And the new nodes for 2 hopper systems combine them... How would you keep the 2 hopper networks separate until the update? I'm lost now

I'm happy with my Fixed WISP at 39.99$ a month no data cap and 6mbit/sec upload and download. Netflix and Xbox live run perfectly. Wb and even Hughes need higher data caps more than anything. Since most phone retailers don't disclose the data cap at sale, so I let the customer know before I...
