Ok, so it's been quite a long time since I posted here. In fact, this is my first time using the mobile version of the site. Kudos guys, it works awesome! Here's where I'm hoping you can help me... I don't know what switches or equipment are feeding my current setup, but I have one 722k (1st...

Greetings, it's been awhile since I last posted and my set-up has changed significantly since the one listed in my signature. I'm also fairly out of touch with current equipment and hoping someone can point me in the right direction on this... I'd like to remove a 211k from my current...

I've got a Belkin AP30800-10 AVR surge suppressor/battery back-up that hasn't been plugged in for about 2 years... I finally moved into my new house and I can't get the darn thing to fire up. I left it plugged in for about 5 hours and it didn't even register a blip... I'm guessing that the...

...of the rooms and I'd also like to run some Cat-6 while I'm at it. The home I'm moving into is ~4,500 sq ft, ~15 years old and previously had E* HD service so, LOS shouldn't be an issue. I'm also hoping the willing party may be able to help me with a wall mount of a 50" Vizio P50 Plasma (I...

I haven't had an active account with E* in about 2 years and am planning on coming back. I would appreciate some feedback from the experts as I "hook up" again! I'm moving to zip code 17022 (Elizabethtown, PA) and was told that I would be using Western Arc sats at 110, 119 and 129 (I thought...

...so, i don't know if I really feel like raising a fuss over a ~$3.00 difference at this point. Especially since I might just go to another provider. Still, I'm somewhat stunned by how frack'n complicated it's become just to figure out what I *should* be paying... Input is greatly appreciated.

My parents are having some issues with 61.5 in their set-up... I'm hoping a SatGuy may come to the rescue! They have a D500 (110/119) and D300 (61.5) with DPP Twin and DP Dual, respectively, running to a 622 and 211. Modulated output from the 622 feeds two additional SDTV's. They're located in...

I'm RA'ing my 622 (second one) because of a bad HDMI port. I've been trying to get the new one authorized/activated for 2 hours now... The web site activation doesn't work. It refers me to a phone number to call, as there are apparently no receivers on my account in need of activation. Called...

I'm thinking about using this HDMI splitter to send TV1 from my 622 to a secondary display. The secondary display has a DVI input so, I'll also be running L/R/C audio channels from my receiver's "Zone B" outputs. The total run is about 35'. I'll be using the 6.3 IR/UHF Pro remote. Questions: 1)...

Got my new Dell Inspiron 1720 fired up, spec's below... Dell Inspiron 1720 Intel C2D T7500 (2.2GHz/800Mhz FSB/4MB cache) 3Gb SDRAM (DDR2 at 667MHz/Asymmetric Dual Channel) nVidia GeForce 8600M GT (256Mb) Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme Audio w/Surround Sound Upgrade Kit (Express Card) 250Gb HDD...

I've been surfing the information wave in various forums and in preparation of hooking up my new notebook (on Dec. 25) to an HDTV for some BD/HD DVD goodness. In the process of researching potential issues, I've come across quite a few posts/people who believe VGA is an inferior connection...

Although my second computer was an Apple IIGs (first was a RS TRS80) I've been using PC's for the past 15 years or so. Recently, I've been considering a PowerBook Pro as my next home computer purchase. I have a few assumptions that I'm basing my decision on and I'm hoping some forum folks can...

I was with D* about 6 or 7 years ago. Since then I've been an E* sub and have been happy with a 622 (HD/DVR), 211 (HD), and HD/AEP/Locals. I'm not a service provider jumper but, recent developments have caused me to take a closer look at returning to D* (no, it's not just the HD race prompting...

I'm going to be moving (really truly moving) within the next couple of months so, I'd like to suspend my account until I've got the finances under control and know where I'm at. Can anyone provide some input on the process? From what I've read, I can suspend service for a maximum of 6 months...

I was hanging out with a friend last night and he has an interesting problem with his set-up... Since he recently signed up with E* and had a 625 installed, he was under the impression that his issue might be related to the STB or installation. When I took a look, it seemed more like a problem...

I recently got my parents to take their network wireless (G via Linksys WRT54GS). While I sold them on the benefits of being "mobile," I of course was secretly and selfishly thinking about connecting to their network while visiting and without being tethered to a hard line. I figured we could...

...and a 211, and I start thinking... "Hmmm, I used to pay only one lease fee when I had a 311 <sigh>." Here's my question, has anyone successfully *negotiated* these lease fees down, say from two to one? I mean, one of my receivers IS an HD box... From BFG's E* resource guide; Additional...

Because it was so easy to rip my CD collection onto the 360, I did. But, I'd like to use the Xport to transfer the files onto my PC and I don't read/speak hexidecimal... Looking at the 360's HDD contents, I think I know which files I want to transfer but, I'm hoping someone here has done this...

I'm thinking about adding an Algolith Flea into my set-up. I'm particularly interested in improving SD PQ with MNR and BAR, and am wondering if anyone has successfully used the Flea with a Vip622 over YPrPb?

I'm thinking about upgrading my indoor antenna, a little RS 15-1870, to a relatively unobtrusive outdoor model, and I'm looking at this Sylvania DT-5000 at Sam's Club to possibly do the job. I live in an apartment complex so, I need something that is not going to ruffle the complex management...

I recently spoke with a CSR regarding my account and was told that because I have a 24 month committment (total time after a few DIU upgrades) that I will continue to receive a $5.99 credit towards DHPP throughout that committment, essentially paying nothing for DHPP. Does this sound correct...

I tried posting this in the Accessories Forum but, too little traffic there... My 676 no longer downloads the "Favorite Channels" I had selected during initial set-up. When I used the web interface, I couldn't even find the favorite channels feature... Did Harmony do away with this feature...

My 676 no longer appears to download the "Favorite Channels" I had selected during initial set-up. When I used the web interface, I couldn't even find the favorite channels feature... Did Harmony do away with this feature altogether? :confused:

...better to ask now than be sorry later :o A few related side notes; I'll be adding a 50" plasma to my HD toys tomorrow :hungry: and I called E* tonight to add a the 211 to my account. Surprisingly, it only took 2 calls of CSR roulette to get approval for my second upgrade in 5 months :up My...

I recently, and for the first time, had a very odd recording experience on my 622. It started out as a recording of "Dr. Who," on 122 (SciFi), and ended up recording the HD Demo on 9443... :mad: Anyone else have one of these fun experiences?
