    Install issues and advice

    The LNB was not changed, still the old LNB covered in mildew. There were support arms on the mount for the dish, that were undone when they redid my roof that year, and those weren't even secured again. At this point I have no service as the DVR just cycles from blue screen to reboot. I am...

    Install issues and advice

    Hey guys its been a while. Back in 2011 I left D* after 15 years for AT&T Uverse. I was happy with the service, and had relatively few issues. Last week I called to do the promo merry-go-round and I was told, matter of factly, Uverse was being phased out.(true or not who knows) So they gave...

    Special One-Night CE for 9/15 -- No Weekend CE's

    LOL, you're exactly right. I see this a lot as an iOS Dev. Non-Dev's get a hold of iOS beta's and expect it to be perfect. They just don't get the fact that the purpose of 'Beta' or 'CE' software is to test it, find and report the bugs. You will have issues with betas its a given! Thats the purpose.

    DL was complete, channel banner popped up then froze. The other one is 'Downloading addl software' about 4-5 min now.

    Back to Direc tv. Left Uverse in 5 days.

    I actually had a similar experience with AT&T. Within 5 days, I packed up their equipment and sent it back. My issues were, HD PQ was terrible compared to D*. I had two Identical Samsung HDTV's side by side and AT&T looked more like SD at the time. Also, I am a family of 4, with 5 TV's. The...

    CE's for the Weekend of 3.11

    Yep, many times. The last one I was able to get successfully was right before the last NR at the end of February.

    CE's for the Weekend of 3.11

    Is anyone else having issues getting the CE's? I have tried several times, during the time period, over the last 3 weeks and all I get is the NR (0459). 2x HR24 1x HR23. Any thoughts?

    HR21 to HR24...Worth The Upgrade?

    I love my HR24-200's. They are leaps and bounds faster than my old HR21. As far as I know right now, the software feature set is the same on all HR2X series receivers, so the only reason to upgrade now, would be for the faster controls. The HR24's do have built in Decas, so it would eliminate...

    CE's for the Weekend of 12.3

    Thats not totally correct. You can force the NR at just about anytime. Only the CE's have special days and times. @Overdcoat When a new update rolls out, it's my understanding its rolled out one section of the country at a time. Your receiver will automatically get those as they are released...

    Losing Faith In Direct TV - HELP ! ! !

    Last night I was at a friends house while she had D* hooked up. They installed 2 HR21-700's. They are painfully slow compared to my HR24's. I switched to RF, turned native & scrolling effects off, and still......turtle speed. I was surprised they are still installing those.

    Canceled Directv

    WOW, someone cant take constructive criticism. Why do people get so angry when they hear/told something they don't like. Kids these days.... geeze! ( I wish to take a un-constructive post mulligan please)

    CE's for the Weekend of 11.26

    Well, had to revert to natl. on my BR HR24-200. The receiver was constantly rebooting. Not even able to send a report. All seems fine now that the natl version is back on it.

    CE's for the Weekend of 11.26

    Noticing VERY slow remote response with this CE. The HR24 is usually very good compared to other receivers, but since this CE, its like I am back on a HR21. Seeing it on both my HR24-200's one is IR, one RF.

    CE's for the Weekend of 11.26

    Have you had any issues where the HR24-200, just spontaneously reboots? Happened with the 19th's CE in my living room, but my BR was fine. Now, with this weeks CE, my BR is rebooting and the LR is fine. Weird!

    dish calling former customers

    I called E* a couple months ago, when D* was having issues fixing my system. The deal E* wanted to give me did not seem like much of a deal so I politely told them no thanks! About a week ago, I started getting calls almost daily from E* wanting me to give them a shot. Must have got my number...

    CE's for the Weekend of 11.19

    Same HR24-200 as before, black screen on all channels. Recored shows work fine, both on recorder and MRV. TV was fine until I changed channels. Then got black screen. All other tvs work fine. Will reboot DVR, to see if channels come back. Sent report but report number disappeared before I could...
