    CMT videos-Sign in with your Provider

    Wow I did miss that Comcast wasn't listed. I understand that DISH does not have an agreement with CMT. It just seems odd when all these years the videos have been available and now they are not. I do get CMT as part of my subscription. I think if I had a Hopper I would be able to get the...

    CMT videos-Sign in with your Provider

    CMT has several seasons of a particular TV show I watch every year. When you bring up past seasons, the CMT website will show all of the seasons, but earlier for earlier seasons it says "sign in to your provider." It seems that DISH is the only provider not listed which means I have access to...

    Dish DVR 625 Remote Signal

    I don't have any real reason to think it is the remote. It hasn't been dropped and this problem has been a gradual thing. Don't have a problem buying a new one if I knew that is what it is. I also have another receiver in the bedroom that's never been used. Can I use the remote to that one...

    Dish DVR 625 Remote Signal

    Is a triflexor that splitter thing on the back of the main receiver with three wires going to it and one going out?

    Dish DVR 625 Remote Signal

    My second television is in another room and is about 30' from the main unit (625). Over the last year the signal has gotten harder to pick up to change the channel. Now most of the time I have to get directly in front of the receiver to change the channel on the second TV. Sometimes I can be...

    Bad Dish UHF remote or just limitations of remote?

    I'm having the same problem with my second receiver that is only about 25' from the main receiver. When I first turn the second TV on, it works sometimes and other times it takes the signal about 30 minutes to "get there." The only way to get the 2nd channel changed is to point the remote...

    625 receiver questions

    No, I haven't tried rescanning channels. I'll try that if I can remember how. Nothing but snow on TV2.

    625 receiver questions

    In January I Dish installed the 625 dual receiver. This morning the 2nd TV will not pick up the signal. The remote does work and the light is on at the front of the main receiver where it says TV2. The television is working also and is on the correct channel (60) I think. I haven't changed...

    Question re: switch box and upgrade

    DISH tech arrived today at the correct time. Replaced everything and did a great job. Technology sure has changed in the last 5-7 years!! Maybe one day I will get a flat screen TV.

    Question re: switch box and upgrade

    I've been a DISH customer for about 14 years and have been happy with most everything. When they came out a few years ago to set up another room (sent me a 3800), I upgraded to a 510 on the main TV and also have another receiver (2700 on b/r TV). The 2700 has been unplugged for a few years...
