    I had a horrible experience w/Dtv this past week...you can see my other thread *post* for info... The previous tech that came disappeared and I didnt hear from him again. So when this tech showed up & went above and beyond - yes, I tipped. Normally do I tip? No. My husband is also in the...

    Another Horrible Install?!

    5:30pm...THEY'RE HERE.... I about died when someone pulled up the driveway. They are totally relocating the dish to the roof, which is better for me - I can climb up there if I have to :) Old dish was WAY up high on telephone pole. This guy says that if new HD dish sways at all it'll throw it...

    Nope - no trees, no apartment. I already have DTV...he was installing the HighDef dish in the same place the old dish was. "Clear view of the southern sky" As the commercial for the Hughes Internet stated. Wierd thing was that he did attempt with some sort of meter. Think he was just...

    Router issue

    You prob already tried this...usually 1st step...but usually a good fix... simultaneous unplug (power) of modem & router for about 10-15 seconds. Plug them back in at the same time - let them boot up together.

    question on connecting HR24's to internet

    Question - if everyone can use the download to PC thing....for dtv thats been recorded on their dvr...y are we getting more receivers when the majority of flat screens have a monitor hookup and we can stream it from the laptop to the flat screen? Seeing that my set up isnt even hooked up...

    Addicted to...

    ModNation Racers! PS3 & PSP! HOWEVER.....I find that the load times are terribly slow-both local & online. :mad: PSP doesnt seem to be quite as bad as my PS3 but that could be b/c my PS3 is bogged down with Rockband songs. (addict of that too) Karts are fun to customize and racing is...

    Another Horrible Install?!

    Well I'm not OceanStateWitch for nothing! I complained...did research...etc. Found out original installer...b/c they didnt leave me information! I got it r/s THROUGH dtv for July 30th that was unacceptable. So I did research and called the installer directly (reverse number lookup) and r/s...

    Another Horrible Install?!

    Way back in 1999/2000 when we first got Dtv - we installed it all ourselves. it was pretty easy. I just didnt know about the whole HD hookup - if that was any different/more difficult. Apparently my "ticket" is still open with Dtv so they cant even r/s it with another tech/company! :mad...

    Another Horrible Install?!

    Exactly! and the tech was nice enough guy! We joked around...and he tried like hell. I just seriously dont think he knew what he was doing and didnt WANT to come back. If he fiddled with it for 3 hours and couldnt get it--I dont think he wants to come back?! If thats the case, pass the...

    Another Horrible Install?!

    I didnt want to hijack the other thread I responded in..:rant: I've had Dtv since 1999 with absolutely NO complaints. Well my current DVR started to crap out (so I thought - it was resetting all the time) so I decided that instead of just replacing it with a regular DVR we would upgrade to...
