    Install Today--No HR44 for me

    Install seems to be going well; however, I was told the installer does not have the HR44. I'm in Kansas City. A little disappointed but there are real problems in the world and this isn't one of them :-) Looking forward to having this up and running.

    Genie Pricing/Capabilities

    I just wanted to confirm the pricing for a new subscriber on DirecTV with a Genie. I am currently a Dish subscriber, I have America's top 250, out of contract with a VIP722k which sends an HD feed to my main TV & a downconverted signal to my secondary TV. My pricing is $64.99 + $7 (DVR fee)...

    Dish Remote App Help

    So I finally upgraded my old HTC Incredible for a Nexus 4. Long story short, my Dish Remote App worked fine with my HTC Inc--can watch live tv or anything on my dvr. On my Nexus 4, it starts up and I have live sound but the picture just stays static. Assuming this needs to be fixed with an...

    HUB Channel

    Quick question that I couldn't seem to find when searching. It looks like the HUB channel should be on 179 if you have America's top 250? I currently have AT 200. When I go to "all channels" I do not see 179 listed. Does Dish still carry this channel? Thanks!

    Update?

    Sorry if I missed this in another thread, but was there a recent software update? I swear my menu used to say blockbuster movie pass and it now says blockbuster @ home. Plus movies started disappearing again after working fine for a month or so.

    Another store closing

    Well, the second closest store to me is closing (after the closest closed awhile back) and there are "plans" to relocate at a later date. This means 0 stores in SW Johnson County. I understand the closings, just thinking they are missing out on a large market. The 119th st location was always...

    Broadband Issues but My Rentals Fixed

    I was in the "My Rentals Vanishing" club up until around 2 weeks ago. I did not change anything on my end; however, I woke up one morning and all my rentals were there. I thought I was living the good life until a day or two later when I started receiving the "this feature is available only if...

    broadband connected = no

    I just noticed when I go to my equipment on dishnetwork.com under my account it says my receiver is not connected to broadband. I recently switched from a homeplug to a wireless router. I can use dish remote access on my phone and dishonline fine. Does this status have any effect on anything?

    red sox vs Royals

    So when I go to where's my game and type in my zip code of 66210, it shows that I should see this game on channel 446 and it requires Americas top 120. I do not have the game there or on any other channel that I can see. I have Americas top 200. Is this normal?

    I am pleasantly surprised to be able to watch nhl hockey on versus even though I don't have versus in my top 200 package. Is this a mistake?

    It's about HD and Sports

    I was helping a friend decide on tv and internet providers yesterday and he was deciding between dish and direct. We had a spreadsheet comparing costs and even assigned a rating to some of the features. He is like me in that he is fine with only having 1 hd streaming as kids usually use the...

    Dish Cinema Downloads

    I am having an issue watching dish cinema downloads, mainly in HD. Before an update sometime in the past, I was able to choose an on demand download and it would show the progress on a screen and notify me when it was completed in order to watch. It appears now it is trying to do it on the fly...

    Questions after install today

    Hello all! I'm back enjoying a crisp HD picture on Dish now after using a different company I will not mention for the last year. The install went well, but I am having a few issues I'm hoping you could help me out with. 1. The installer gave me a home-plug device called a sling-link I...
