Will this wd drive work with a 211? WDBBGB0030HBK-NESN Thanks.

Has any one attempted to use a 3tb EHD on a 211 or 722k? I know that 2tb is the stated limit, but sometimes dish does not advertise changes that it makes; so I thought that I would ask. Will a 3tb format up to the 2tb limit? If so, does that cause any problems? Thanks for any help.

Just wanted to mentioned that I asked Matt G. to help me move me to an EA setup late Monday night. As of 8:37 p.m. tonight I was up and running. I think that it might have been sooner, except that I was not available until today. Thanks again, Matt.

Anyone else having trouble with HD in the Boston area. Since last night neither the sat feed nor the ota feed have been working. Thanks.

I just had trouble activating a replacement 722K. Matt G. took care of it for me. Not the first time that Matt provided assistance. Thanks again Matt.

I know that with the Sling I can use my computer and some devices to access and control my 722k. My question is whether the Sling will allow me to watch Dishonline content on my TV, through my 722k? I know that I can rent certain movies from Dishonline and have them downloaded to my 722k, even...

I have 2 external drives and I keep both of them connected to the wall outlet. What I would like to do is to move the usb cable between the drives to the one I want to use. My question is whether there is a proper way to do this. Do I turn the receiver off and then move the usb cable? Do I...

So here is a question for those members who are familiar with these receivers. I have a few of these receivers that Dish asked me to deactivate in 2009. My question relates to watching the recordings that are still on these receivers. The full recordings are still on the receivers, but I can...

Just wanted to post a note that I just had my second occasion to deal with MattG(Speedy) on an issue. As with the first issue, there was a positive result in a very quick fashion. Thanks again, Matt.

Does anyone pay for locals on an annual basis? Each year I pay for the Top 250 on an annual basis. In the past, Dish has not allowed my to pay for the locals annually, only monthly. My current bill has locals at $5.99 per month. I think that the add on for locals is less than that, so I lose...

Just looking for some advice. Can I use a 508 receiver just for pointing a dish at 72.7? I know that 72.7 is mpeg4, but I was wondering if using a transponder that includes some of the audio only stations might work. Also, am I better off using a Dish 300 or a Dish 500 for trying to get...

For those of you who use a Hub with a 211, a few questions: First though, some info. I now have an EHD attached to my 211 and it works fine. It works so well that I now have about 3 hours of HD space left. How do you first setup the Hub? Do you use the Dish software to disconnect the...

Does anyone know if the Harmony 880 can be told to use different remote addresses for Dish receivers? For instance if there are two 211 receivers connected to the same tv, each receiver can be assigned its own address. Can the Harmony handle this? Thanks for any help.

At one point Dish charged a per receiver fee of $10 per month for HD receivers if the customer did not subscribe to HD programming, which I do not. I am looking to buy a VIP211K from DishStore, but do not want to pay more fees other than the $7 additional receiver fee. Mostly I want the 211K...

Looking to see if anyone else has this issue and if anyone has called Dish about it. For many years, I was paying one price for locals with superstations. The most recent price was $8.99(this what I paid last month). On my current bill the locals are $5.99 and the superstations are listed as...

Does any one know the size limit for a HDD for a 211? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I have some 211's on the way. I am a little concerned about the HDD running 24/7/365 and therefore failing. Any thoughts on the best HDD, considering that fact. Does turning the HDD power switch to off cause real problems? Is 1TB still the limit? Thanks for any replies.

Has anyone used this drive: Iomega 1TB eGo USB 2.0 Desktop Hard Drive? I know that there are posts that mention Iomega, but I don't know if this one has been mentioned. Does it have a power switch? Is 1TB still the limit for a 211? Thanks for any replies.

I am considering getting a 211k receiver. At the moment all of my receivers are MPEG2 and I see 61.5, 110 and 119. I only have SD programming. I know that the 211k is HD, but I am interested in the DVR function that can be added. Based on a channel chart that I have seen on this...
