    Dish Wifi Adapter Kit Dual Band 802.11N

    I bought this Wifi Adapter Kit from Amazon and installed it. It works fine for what it's supposed to do. (Dish content) I also have the NFL Ticket on-line. Is there any way to use this adapter kit to be able to stream the Ticket to my TV from my PC that's located in another room? thanks

    where are the Cavalier's games?

    I live in Erie, PA and CH 425 (Fox- Ohio) is the Cleveland Cavs Network. For some reason this season, these games are blacked out to me. I've had Dish for 10 years and they have never been blacked out. I've tried talking to Dish but they know nothing and give me the same babble about how they...

    Cleveland Cavs- Washington Wizards blacked out in Erie, PA

    why do you suppose the Cavs-Wizards game is blacked out in Erie, PA? It's not on anywhere else and they've never been blacked out here before...

    when switching to game mode, other TV2 changes channel by itself

    I have 3 TV's hooked up to one 722 DVR. TV2 is in my son's room as well as my bedroom. When he plays XBox, he switches his TV to the game mode. When that happens, my TV shows the floating icon that says to change it to SAT. When I do that, my TV immediately changes it's channel to 23 (it's on ch...

    no more freebies for me

    This will be the last time I will sign up for anything "free" from Dish. Each and every time I have gotten the free 3 months of whatever, it's a royal pain to make sure I get credited for them. And everytime I'd had to fight with them to get what they promised in the first place. This time...

    Cleveland locals

    are Cleveland locals on 129 again? Yet? Or soon?

    OK Erie, PA...

    are you ready for some HD locals tomorrow? Of course I was ready when they said "sometime in March". What are the chances they are going through with it this time?

    622 problem?

    All of a sudden I have no picture. I get the message "no input devices are connected" and check the input and there is no TV. I checked all the connections- they seem fine. I switched the HDMI cable from another TV, and that didn't work. I am connected to the 622. I checked in another room on...

    well it's Wednesday

    and tomorrow starts the NCAA's. Erie, PA is on the list for "sometime in March". It would be a nice surprise if the flipped the switch before 12:10 tomorrow afternoon.

    when the ceo@... fails

    Long story short... Called Dish to get a better deal comparable to DTV. Eventually got to the retention (loyalty) department. Was offered cash off, free HD for a year, the free HBO/Showtime AND a new 722 free of charge. Also, I was to pay no DVR fees whatsoever as long as I was a Dish customer...

    latest offer

    Got a call from Dish stating they would give me 3 months of HBO/Starz for free for 3 months. No strings. Then he said if I re-upped for 24 months, they'd give me 16 movies channels for free for the duration. My commitment must be coming to an end.

    Cable recording question

    I have basic cable to get network HD (no HD locals here), and was wondering if I can use the DVR to record shows from the cable side?

    question re: sports blackouts

    Is there any rhyme or reason regarding sports blackouts? I understand the rules when it comes to out of market baseball games. You don't get the RSN games out of your market. But I live in Erie, PA, and am in the Cleveland and Pittsburgh markets. Occasionally I get the ESPN baseball games...

    very strange...

    During the past few days, something weird has been going on with the 622. I have cable with my Dish, and when I would change from the cable output (or DVD for that matter) back to the HDMI Dish, the picture on the screen was about 1/5 of the normal size, and was in the upper left hand corner...

    Has anyone ever heard of this?

    I'm in Erie, PA and we have the CBS and NBC affiliates available in HD, but ONLY to Time Warner Cable subscribers with the TWC HD box. You cannot receive their signals OTA. We have a Fox affiliate, whose HD signal is a low power, but available OTA. Has anyone ever heard of an HD signal that...

    big props to Dish email

    Just wanted to pass on two short successes with the ceo email address. I've had a huge problem with my TV2 remote burning up batteries at an alarming rate. I called Dich customer service twice and they told me blowing through 4 batteries every 3 weeks is normal. Of course it's not. On the...

    Ideally..........

    I would like to "move" back to Cleveland for the locals, but I have the 1000 dish with no 61.5 availability. Seeing what is on 61.5 for Erie, PA, it's not much. Looks like a bunch of public access type channels. What is the possibility to get E* to install a new dish to see 61.5, for free...

    Question re: dumping locals

    If I do away with the $5.99 locals fee and get those OTA, I understand I would lose the listings in the guide. If I want to record something, I'd have to do it like an old VCR? Would my other DVR functions like recording all new shows, etc still be available?

    622 won't read my locals..

    I have an amplified rabbit ear antenna that picks up our 1 and only HD OTA channel, and the locals CBS digital channel fine. The signal strength, according to my TV is great. But the 622 does not pick up either station as locals. I have it set for offair, and have it plugged into where it's...

    remote eats batteries

    I have to replace my TV2 remote batteries approximately once a month. I haven't had to change my TV1 remote in 2 years. Granted, my TV2 gets about twice the workout the TV1 does, but this is getting ridiculous. I have had it replaced once already. Anyone else had similar problems?

    622 not picking up any locals

    I have a decent set of amplified rabbit ears and hooked them up to see if I could pull in our one and only HD OTA station which is located 6 miles from my house. I tried scanning for my Erie, PA locals and nothing shows up. I tried manually and still nothing. I can pull them in (very fuzzy)...

    "moving" question

    I'm a current Dish subscriber who's "moved" and my service address is Cleveland. Therefore, I get all the Indians games from STO, and the Browns from the local affiliates, and the Cavs on FSN Ohio. But the bad news is Dish does not carry the Cleveland locals in HD. Is it as easy to "move"...

    poor reception on 3rd set

    If TV2 is on, and I turn on TV3, the reception on that set is very snowy. If it's on by itself, it's fine. The cable runs are no more than 25 ft. (probably less) So I am in the process of replacing the old cable (probably 25 years old) with new RG6 cable. My question is what kind of...

    625 billing question

    Say you have two 625's, each connected to a phone line. Should they be charging an extra $5/month for that second 625, even though it's a dual tuner and connected to a phone line?

    HD problems..

    Just recently, some of the upper HD stations on my 622 have been giving me some problems. A&E, the Gaming Network, among others- they are unwatchable. It's constantly searching for signal. Every 2-3 seconds it'll do that. Funny thing- ESPN is one that hasn't done it yet. The locals are also...
