    Additional Joey - ethernet only?

    We want to add a 4th TV in our office, which has ethernet but no coax. Currently I have 2 Hoppers and 1 Joey - would it be possible to add a 2nd Joey and only hook up the ethernet cable (no coax)? Sorry if this has be answered already, I can't find a definitive answer.

    Dish Sling Adapter accessible from Mexico?

    Hey, been with Dish for a little under a month. Was looking forward to using my Sling adapter while travelling, and currently I am in Mexico and cannot access my sling player. www.dishonline.com gives me an error message "too many redirects" (see attached) Is this normal? Thanks!

    Should I switch to Dish?

    Not 100% sure where to post this, but the Dish forum appears to be more active than the DirecTV forum. So I've been a loyal DirecTV customer for over 4 years now, with three HR22 HD-DVR's. I want to upgrade to either the Hopper or the Genie, depending on if I stay or switch. The main reason I...

    HBO On Demand?

    Probably been brought up before but... We added HBO/Cinemax the other day, presumably to watch the new season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" ON DEMAND. Why wouldn't I assume it would be available? Showtime has on demand, we were just changing from one premium movie channel to another. Comcast...

    Why did both of my HR-22 recievers just reboot?

    Its annoying enough that I've been trekking through the snow since yesterday to clean off the dish and now both of my HR-22's just rebooted at about 8:00 AM. I have no idea why they did that, we didn't have a power spike or anything as far as I know. I didn't see a "downloading software"...

    Is there any benefit turning off receivers

    When I turn off my HR-22's, they continue to record scheduled programs. This makes me think that when I turn them "off" (standby) that the video/audio out is killed, and nothing else. Do I really need to I turn off the receivers when I turn off the TV? Is it different for non-dvr receivers...

    I am thinking this won't work, but wanted to check on here anyway. My wife's family has three buildings on their farm they want to get DirecTV in. One is their main house, and the other 2 are guest houses (1 double wide and 2 singles). They are all on the same property, but are about 1,000...

    D12 Sometimes not tuning when changing channels

    Hi all, I have a SWM setup with 2 HR-22's and 1 D12. Sometimes when switching channels on the D12, I will get a black screen and no sound. To fix it, all I do is hit prev channel twice or channelup, channel down and the channel tunes in just fine. Is this indicating a problem with my...

    I get fox "locals" one week, not the next

    Last weekend, I was watching one NFL game on my local CBS channel, and another on channel 388 which is "FOX-E" or something. I didn't think anything of it, just switching between 2 games. This Sunday, I can only watch my local game and channel 388 is blocked out "Channel not purchased." I...
