It all depends on how they wired your Hopper 3s and Joey units. There should be lines coming from the dish into a DPH dual hub and three lines from that going to your Hopper 3s and Joey units. The Hopper 3s should be running off the legs labeled To Host/Adv Client and the Joey should be on the...

The other option is not to use provider based routers/modems (especially the combo units). I've found that those tend to cause problems more often than not and as such I avoid them. My current setup is definitely atypical (pFSense virtualized on a Dell PowerEdge rackmount server feeding into an...

Unfortunately the Dish app does not currently have the capability to cast it from a phone/tablet. However the app is present on the Amazon app store so you can load it onto a Fire TV stick and then stream from the stick onto your TV in the garage.

Looks frivolous to me as well. The company that actually made the calls is Satellite Systems Network a retailer for Dish. Now I understand that Dish is responsible to a certain degree for their retailers but there have to be some limits. I'm sure that Dish has rules in place regarding...

Too bad the Joey doesn't work across state lines. Although I suppose if you were clever enough with networking perhaps you could convince the Joey that it was on the same MoCA network when it went through a VPN tunnel.

Volume control is already present as well. I simply say, "Alexa tell Harmony to <increase the volume/decrease the volume/mute the volume>

For that matter aren't they still in the process of finalizing the ATSC 3.0 standard?

I'm not quite sure why you're bothering with the Super Joey as it looks like you're hooking up 4 rooms total so a Hopper and 3 Joeys should do the job just fine. If it's recording conflicts you're worried about just make sure to upgrade to the Hopper 3 which has 16 tuners and that'll be a non...

Keep in mind that currently the 4K Joey does not support the Netflix application if that has any bearing on your decision. The Joey 2.0s are pretty fast units as is and they do support the app.

The number of fails for QA in the picture alone are rather high on this one, no drip loop that I can see, improperly secured wiring, and excess wiring just to name a few and I'm sure that there are more that aren't in the picture. That would definitely not even come close to passing QA muster if...

I don't recall what the e-mail is off the top of my head since it's been a long while since I've had the chance to use it. It might be something as simple as signalintegrity@dish.com . If that bounces you might want to contact one of the DIRT folks as I'm sure they can at least forward it to the...

I'm not entirely sure if that would work or not, perhaps somebody else on the boards has tried it and will be able to give feedback. One possible alternative if that doesn't work would be to use a power over ethernet adapter.

I know Dish will permit up to 2 211/Wally receivers on an account with a Hopper/Joey install (this is so folks can use a tailgater with these units) however I don't think you'll be able to get these installed on the same dish. From the way I understand the new DishPro Hybrid LNBFs that are...

$350 upfront for the device is pretty steep compared to either DSL or cable as your typical decent cable modem (such as an Arris 6183 ) is around $100 and a decent DSL modem (technically a network bridge really) is usually around $70. I will grant you that I'd be willing to pay more for higher...

It should be noted that while slinging inside your own home does use your network it does still need to hit the internet to authenticate your account. That won't use much in the way of bandwidth but just making sure you're aware.
