    Misleading ad DirecTV has about Dish Network...

    Comcast has an ad claiming that DirecTV doubles in price after 3 months. Which is true on some packages if you don't cancel the free premiums. The best part is the web address they give still doesn't have any info and just tells you to call them Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

    Directv DVR Connected to Internet in Canada

    Hardware upgrade

    Basically D* considers all HR20 to HR24 the same but they do have improved specs with the HR24 being the best. If you get one from D* they are going to pick whatever model is next on the shelf and send it to you. The only way to guarantee you get an HR24 is to pay for one from a retailer.

    Former Dish Net / New Customers Read This

    You could move to Fort Wayne and that would get you the Pacers and the Bulls, this would also get you the Fort Wayne locals. It's not possible to get the Pacers and the South Bend locals. Here's the lookup tool if you want to mess around with it. Local Regional Sports Network Information...
