    Dish Letter for outdated equipment

    Very shortsighted of TX politicians. They should be jumping at the chance to bring more jobs into the state thanks to EV manufacturing. Sure oil industry jobs will be “lost,” but they will transition to jobs in the EV car industry, battery manufacturing. Same with solar panels - someone has to...

    Dish Letter for outdated equipment

    Agreed. People speak so negatively of EVs, but forget we didn’t go from the Model T to the Corvette overnight. Gas stations didn’t exist everywhere when the T came out. Things take time and infrastructure will be built. Battery technology will continue to improve. And yes, you can actually make...

    Can It Be done

    The old Dish remotes work for me on the Wally (and Hopper 3). The 20.x and 21.x models. I can’t stand the newer remotes. Sorry you had bad luck with the Wally. Wish we could have helped before things escalated so much with the wife. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hi everyone!

    Ooh is this a thing? My parents couldn’t get theirs to activate after it being off for the winter, and I finally had them hook it to their regular dish on the house and it magically activated right away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Question about ViP 211 and 211k Support for Vacation Home

    I think 211k was the way to go so you can hook the antenna to it for locals. You could always buy a firestick for $20 somewhere for streaming. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Question about ViP 211 and 211k Support for Vacation Home

    The re-auth requests on the dish website NEVER work for me, I’m convinced they literally do nothing. I always have to call or chat. Depending on the chat rep, it could take 2 minutes or 20 minutes before they will send a signal to authorize it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dish Protect Question

    I had to do the same, but due to a roof replacement. The new tech didn’t point it as well, and I lost 3-4 points on all my transponders. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dish Protect Question

    It’s a $30 fee if allowed by your state. I just canceled mine and did have to pay the $30 fee. It’s also spelled out in the terms of the agreement. If you were trying to save money on the $95 technician fee, and you’re canceling after a month, you’re still saving a good amount of money...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    This is exactly what it’s like calling Dish. Excellent summary. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Been with dish for 12 years - needed faster hardware!

    You will love the H3. It is fast and minimal lag. And you might find yourself enjoying the 16 tuners. Glad Dish hooked you up and you got a new promotional offer! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New Install, new equipment?

    Dish and Direct merging at some point is the only path forward, just like Sirius and XM. There will always be a market for satellite tv for the foreseeable future, but the market share is certainly shrinking every day. We’ll also see streamers and tv providers continue to consolidate and merge...

    Hopper 3 H373 update 04/24/2024

    Why does Signal Protector default to Off. seems like a great feature everyone would want. If you have data caps or maybe satellite internet (not Starlink) I guess I could see maybe not wanting to use it. But it is BURIED in the menu, not an easy to find and activate feature. Sent from my...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    The name is definitely a problem. It’s confusing and I see it mixed up constantly on their social media and in online forums. It should really have been branded as something else, ie: Dish Wireless. With that said, I’ve read too many bad things about ports gone wrong and a lack of customer...

    Dish Anywhere FireStick and iPhone Not Working

    Sorry, not following. OP stated in his first few posts he gets errors and connection issues when trying to access anything. Could be a H3 issue. Seems to be the last thing left that hasn’t been done - replacing it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What’s keeping you guys with Dish Network…

    1. Streaming is still too glitchy and unreliable. 2. I have a lot of multi-day power outages. Even with a generator, the internet usually goes down. Satellite will still work! 3. Hopper 3 is cream of the crop in equipment! 4. It’s DRASTICALLY cheaper than cable. Every 2 years I comparison shop...

    New Customer--Many Problems!

    The hack last year probably redirected all their IT folks away from things like the H+. I would guess many are still working on things related to the hack and ongoing network security issues. Just playing devil’s advocate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Preferred Customer Offer still exist?

    Alright, finally called. I told the automated system I was calling to cancel. I was routed to the “Loyalty” team. It was a very busy and noisy call center in the background. Before I could say anything, they immediately asked if I was calling about renewing my promotional pricing. I ended up...

    Recommendation to Dish - Dump Hopper+ and Rembrace Virtual Joey

    They could also just start charging a premium for >1 dish anywhere stream at a time. (And update the app so it’s more reliable/stable). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
