    "Could not reach DISH. Please try again".

    I've been trying everyday to relink to Google home. It's still gives the "Something went wrong. Try again." message. :(

    U321 Multiview

    It's not a big deal to me, I just wish things would work without having to use workarounds. Multiview used to work fairly reliably until last couple software updates. OTA getting fixed is a much bigger deal for me. Fixing Pandora's sound stopping after a few songs would also be cool. Wife...

    U321 Multiview

    Multi view usually ends up with a forced reboot because it scrambles the video. I never demo this feature to customers for fear of it misbehaving. Love it when it works, especially with Center Ice package!

    DISH Satellite CABLE HELP

    That DP single is for the 129 orbital which connects to the lnbf in on the DPP 500 plus lnbf. As for it being on the left, instead of the right..... Remember that the signal is being reflected off the dish towards the lnbf. Also the extra empty hole on Dp single is probably just left over from...

    Hopper3

    Without getting into specific transponders on 61.5 and 72.7, it sounds like you are well above the minimum signal threshold and are peaked properly for an eastern arc install. If you must know, however, I'll typically see this : 61.5x5= 50-55 61.5x7=50-55 61.5x10=61-66 61.5x12=50-55...

    Hey Everybody With H3 OTA Problems

    I'll be honest, I've done zero recording over OTA since upgrading to hopper 3 ( had an ota module with a 722k for six years that I recorded heavily off of). With 16 tuners (17 with OTA) the need to record off of OTA has been eliminated for me with Prime Time Anytime.

    Hey Everybody With H3 OTA Problems

    No I actually tune to OTA on the Hopper 3. Then either change channel or power off on hopper to free OTA. Seems to allow trouble free viewing of OTA on joey 2.0 at least until the next day. As a side note, instead of having to get up and physically walk to hopper location, I'll just fire up...

    Dish 622, TV2 output grainy picture

    I'll third that. Bad modulator, since it's happening connected directly to the tv2 out. (Reversed diplexers create poor tv2 image quality too) I've seen numerous 622 exhibit this issue.

    Hey Everybody With H3 OTA Problems

    First off. GO CUBS! Secondly, I've found if you tune the hopper 3 to an ota channel and then change it to something else and go back to joey to watch OTA, it stops breaking up. Just my experience.....it's worked everytime I've had issues with viewing OTA at joey 2.0 location. Stumbled onto...

    New Dish Tuning Help

    I'd also make certain your cable is connected to port 1 of your lnb and connected to the ODU port of your solo hub. I'd cap the 2 client ports on the hub with 75 ohm terminators if they're not going to be used.

    Wing Dish Won't Work With Hopper

    You might be using the DPP 1k2 eastern arc twin which has three outputs, no lnb in. As previously mentioned the only eastern arc twin with an lnb in is the new hybrid version.

    Using Siri hands free with ear bud

    Just got a warranty replacement for my black m165. I'm still forced to manually tap the screen for siri to stop listening and process commands. I guess I got lucky with the white m165 I have since it's apparently not as noisy and knows when I've stopped talking. I might just give one of the...

    Using Siri hands free with ear bud

    I just long click like you do until it beeps, then a second later I hear siri activate. I say what I have to say, and usually siri does as I ask. I'm using it on a 5s with iOS 7.1. I have noticed lately that my marque 2 doesn't seem to tell siri I'm done talking and hangs on those requests...

    Using Siri hands free with ear bud

    I've been using a plantronics marque 2 for quite some time now with Siri. (Phone dialing, replying and sending text messages, setting reminders for when I arrive back at the office, all hands free) Although with 7.1, I'm getting more instances where Siri hangs after I've said something.

    DISH HD install questions

    I think a 1k2 pointed at 110, 119, and 129 with a 500 wing dish pointed at 61.5 connected to the lnb in of the 1k2 would work. Then 2 lines from 1k2 to solo node.

    Can you go more than 3 HD receivers w/o a DPP44?

    Not for a 1k4 as far as I know, due to the spacing of the lnbf.

    Do I need a re-peak?

    I'm pretty confident it's the 722. Id just wait for the hopper upgrade. If the cable going to the receiver is 3ghz the entire way from hopper to node, it sounds like a simple swap after replacing the ground block with solo node and capping the client port on node. (I think you've stated you were...

    Do I need a re-peak?

    Sorry if this got off topic a little from your questions regarding your 722. I just wanted to arm you with more information for your pending upgrade, so you could make sure all was well when your hopper gets installed. I'm sure the orange burial cable to the ground block is fine. RG6 that's...

    Do I need a re-peak?

    I've seen a lot of 722 go bad with issue you are describing. Essentially signal strength is almost cut in half at 722. A good end to end check would still be appropriate, but I'm sure 722 is the issue and your dish is still pointed properly. Since you are upgrading to a hopper next week, all...

    HBO went out...any others?

    72.7 down. Briefly lost 61.5 I'm fine with it. Kids were just watching Bubble Guppies on Nick Jr. I'm actually grateful :D Edit: sigh, bubble guppies are back :(

    Need help 404 Not Found on Hopper Apps

    Funny that he got S237 with his upgrade and no apps. He's not that upset about the apps not working yet, but this stuff is supposed to work when it gets installed. It's frustrating. I deal with this far too often. Oh and he opted for JUST the hopper at this time. When I looked I did notice...

    Need help 404 Not Found on Hopper Apps

    Any resolution to this? Did apps show up? My brother just upgraded his 722k to a hopper on Sunday and apps page is empty . He's connected directly to broadband with software 237 and everything is working fine otherwise. I told him to keep it in standby overnight and the apps are still not...
