    Need help connecting 722 to the internet

    The factory made CAT 5e molded 100 ft cable works just fine. Out of curiosity: each wire has 2.8 ohm resistance, slightly less than the cable I made. End of story\project.

    Need help connecting 722 to the internet

    First of all I want to thank you for all your answers and suggestions. It looks like I still have several options to pursue (wireless, network switch, shorter cable by moving my wireless router half way between my computer and DVR, and so on). I also did some more testing on my 92ft cable. I...

    Need help connecting 722 to the internet

    No, I don't use wireless for my DVR, I was trying to use 92ft cable connecting DVR to a router which seems too long. Hence my questions: Is anybody using 50ft or 80 ft cable connecting a router to a DVR and it works? Is anybody using a different cable than CAT 5e UTP? Can I somehow amplify the...

    Dish can’t even get the remote right..

    I understand that this remote won’t work for all DVDs but I am curious if it works with menus on any DVD player. I expected some morons to post that I should cancel Dish or call my mom but I was hoping that some normal person will post that Dish remote works with his\her DVD player menus. Just...

    Owned ViP 722 dead?

    Had the very same problem. The receiver woke me up at night it was so loud. In the morning I did several resets: both hard and soft. After several resets I decided to give up and call Dish. But after a while the receiver started to work properly again.

    Dish can’t even get the remote right..

    I have upgraded my Dish to HD recently. But their remote Dish Pro 6.3 can’t even operate a DVD with menus. I’ve programmed the remote for my DVD and it has some basic functionality (play, stop), it can also move left or right on the DVD menus but not up or down on the DVD menus. Isn’t it time...
