    Same here in central illinois. Dish web site slow or no access. Dish customer service......forget that, constant busy signal. Even had problems getting to here.

    Looks Like Lin is back!

    Yeah, they cut my CBS channel off at midnight this past Friday night at Midnight. Hmmm.....Dish should by all reason (of course in my opinion...unbiased of course) deduct a certain portion of my charges for local and give me the option to get distant channels.

    Just thought I would do an update on the refurbished 211. Since the installation on the day or arrival, there hasn't been a bit of a problem with it.

    211 Issue

    I'd wait a few days....the problem isn't going to go away. But you would have more ammo to convince the dish techs to swap out the 211 for you should the problem persist. ...just my 2 cents!

    211 Issue

    During activation, I ask the tech what would have been fixed. According to him, a number of things. At which point I said, I suspect you mean the HDMI connection! No answer of course.

    Starz Hd killed my 211

    Well I was trying to find a 211 thread to post in about my woes with my 211, so this one is good as any. First I was having problems on an old 4900 (also had an 811), Dish scheduled a tech to come out. He did, determine it was a bad 4900. So dish sent me a new one. It arrived, but still was...

    Tim Taylor left town...

    That is apparently the problem. Just this afternoon, my neighbor to the west of me had a new Widescreen screen installed, along with Dish Service. Wouldn't you know it, he's got an 811. After discussing the problem that I was having with him, he mentioned that his tv was doing the same as...

    Tricks on getting a new 811 (Existing 522 Customer)

    Tried that route with one of their reps, it didn't work. Even threaten to drop Dish and goto Direct..still didn't work. I don't give up easy, working on another route during the install...I'll see if that boat floats. :D
