    Replacement equipment for bad HDMI?

    I have ran across many of these HD TVs where it is actually the ports on the tv that go bad, only way is to test the ports with another device and hdmi cables. If it is the receiver then yes it can be replaced if you push the issue Cost? Depends on if you have the protection plan or not and how...

    Since two work find get a 3way splitter to put at receiver location use third port for current ant. Then in the rooms that have troubles put a 2way splitter with ant on one port. No need to buy ant, just strip some regular cable and it works as an ant.

    Dish Network VIP222K with Multiple TV's

    Without another receiver you will never be able to see more than the two tuners. Hookup as many TVs as you wish but there will always only be two seperate tuners. So any TVs beyond the first two will watch the same programming as the others.

    In laymans terms, why no VIP integration with Hopper

    You can use ViP receiver with the Hopper systems even our training shows how to wire it properly. Dish just doesn't want us to promote that it is possible. Even tho they can be installed together the ViP receivers will not be able to share and integrate as the Hopper does but they will operate...

    Dish's New Internet Offering

    imo this still isn't worth a damn. the $50 package should start at the 25gb data cap but thats just my 2 cents

    DISH Bundles TV Service with ViaSat's Next-Gener?ation High-Speed Satellite Broadband

    The data allowance is not anywhere near what they should be, which is sad, lots of high hopes for this but none at all now. The top 25 GB DAP should be assigned to the bottom $50 package and go up from there imo. Will stay with what I already have as I'm sure most others will also. I feel for...

    Does Dish really install on weekends?

    The customer choose when the installs happen so if you schedule for a holiday its on you nobody else and of couse we won't be happy as we wanted that time with our familes also. If you make that statement "I can't believe you work holidays" then don't be suprised if I walk or at least let you...

    Time for DIRT to step in and save the day

    My questions is why does CSR tell him once the promotion programming is removed it cannot be added but DIRT I assume from comments above can add it back. They need to make all CSRs know what can and cannot be done and transferring said customers to higer levels that can do such things rather...

    922 help

    its just hit and miss no way to be sure its a good receiver until it is installed or not. imo the 922 was/is the biggest disappointment to dish network we have seen in a very long time. The fancy GUI is nice but nothing with a 922 that cannot be replicated with a much more reliable receiver in...

    DVR 2nd TV output to multiple TV's - HELP PLZ!

    my first guess is bad splitter, cable or fittings as 1 splitter should have very very minimal effect on the signals feeding the two tv2s either that or your cable run has multiple barrels in it further degarding the signal. two to 4 quality splitters should be able to be used before you start...
