    Whole Home - What do I need?

    The HR22-100's are both connected via Ethernet. The others are not. From what I remember of the back of the 25 there is no Ethernet port. There is an Ethernet port available where the 25 is, but it is not plugged in. I wired the entire house with Cat6 when we were building it and everything ties...

    Whole Home - What do I need?

    We are wanting to enable Whole Home so that we can watch our recordings anywhere. If someone could tell me what equipment I need and if I can install it myself I would appreciate it. If not I will call DirecTV, but this seems like one of those things that could/should be a self install. Current...

    Installers near Tulsa

    I tried that. DirecTV wouldn't budge. Ended up cancelling the order and having my wife call the local guy and set everything up under her name and cell phone number.

    Installers near Tulsa

    This is getting pathetic. The installer called me back. DirecTV won't let him do the install because there is an existing work order so therefore we aren't a new customer. Great customer service you've got there DirecTV....simply outstanding!!!

    Installers near Tulsa

    Ok, this is getting strange. Called one of the local installers to have them setup/do a Dish Network install for us. The guy asked if we had considered DirecTV since they have our locals in HD and Dish does not. Told him my story and he got pissed, said his company is still an authorized...

    Installers near Tulsa

    Been on the phone with DirecTV this morning trying to get this resolved. Their basic answer is that they have no control over the installers and all they can do is schedule a new install time for me. The new date? December 12th. Totally unacceptable. How they can survive with such lousy...

    What's the deal with Fox 23? Any idea when they will actually be available?

    Installers near Tulsa

    The "no installers local to Tulsa" thing really seems odd to me. My Wife's grandparents have DirecTV and live in the area and had a local installer when they got theirs 2 years ago. I've called around though and the places here that used to do it have told me DirecTV yanked their rights, or...

    Installers near Tulsa

    I have done that, problem is they say they have no installers in the entire state of Oklahoma other than JP&D or whatever their name is. Basically told me there is nothing they can do to insure the installer shows up. From the phone calls I had to make, which I really think DirecTV should have...

    Installers near Tulsa

    I called before the first of the month to sign up for DirecTV service as was given an install date of 11-13 between noon and 4pm. I took a day off work and waited, waited, waited and waited. Nobody ever showed. I called DirecTV and they gave me the number for the company, JP&D I believe, who...

    Did I see that they are uplinked and will be available soon? Am I dreaming?

    Moving to a neighborhood that doesn't allow dishes

    You are correct, but their placement demands are such that where we would have to place the dish would not give it the view of the Southern sky it needs. Unless out new neighbor is willing to knock the 2nd story off his house.

    Moving to a neighborhood that doesn't allow dishes

    and we still have 7 months left on our contract. Any way to get out of paying the cancellation fee? I'm not trying to screw anyone out of their money, but since the HOA won't allow the dish I have no other choice.

    722 and OTA problem

    I constantly, and I do mean constantly, have issues with my 722 losing the OTA signal. For instance right now I'm trying to watch the Fox pre-game show and the signal keeps being lost. Signal strength is in the upper 80's to lower 90's yet the signal keeps dropping. Same thing for my local ABC...

    No locals via Dish in Tulsa. No hope for them in the future

    Talked to an installer here today so of course I asked him if he had heard anything about HD locals for Tulsa. He said they have been asking constantly because they are losing sales and current subscribers and that all they have heard is that it is possible after 2nd quarter 2009. IMO that is...

    No locals via Dish in Tulsa. No hope for them in the future

    Sorry about leaving out my receiver type. It is a 722. I have tried OTA. Have a Radio Shack, can't remember the model number, boom/yagi/whatever you want to call it, antenna located on a 35' pole. No real luck with it. Best signal I can usually get for the locals is in the mid 40's to...

    No locals via Dish in Tulsa. No hope for them in the future

    I know OTA is better, but because of the fact we live in a valley with very steep elevations all around our OTA reception is terrible at best. Here's my story. Before signing up with Dish last March I called them to speak with them about their serivce and the fact that locals in HD was not...
