    Remote device dedicated to playing sling on the TV?

    Hey all, I'm a college student, and have a ViP922 back home. I frequently stream off of it during the little amount of down-time I find in college. But when I do, it seems like a hassle to get the MacBook pro, plug the HDMI cable in, setup the second screen, then have to get out of bed or use...

    Off to college, would like to retain Dish Network in the dorm room, but will this work?

    Hey all, I am off to college soon, and I'm interested in taking Dish along with me, I will be in a dorm on campus, so mounting a permanent dish outside is out of the question. From my last visit, I did a survey using DishPointer on my iPhone, and there is indeed a clear view of the Western...

    What dish to use to get a better signal on 61.5?

    Due to the area where I live, the signal I get on 61.5 isn't exactly the greatest. I fine tuned the dish with a meter to the best signal I could find, which is between 46-50. Rain fade is a bit of an issue with me, not usually, but sometimes. Is there any 3rd party dishes out there that...

    What can I achieve with this DirecPC LNB, if anything?

    I don't really know much about other bands beyond Ku (I'm a long time dish network customer, and thats what really got me started on satellite stuff). Anyways, heres a pic of the LNB, and some form of rather large block thing thats on the bottom of the arm.

    Would this work? Up to 8 Satellites on one "Network"?

    Simply a concept. I have no idea if this would work or not, i just figured i would draw something up in photoshop real quick. Additional SW21's or DP21's would be used for Dual Tuner receivers, correct? Would a DP21 be preferred to use here over a SW21? I mean, if the concept would even work...

    Any 3rd party switches compatible with Dish?

    I want to get 5 dishes working on my setup.. I have a DPP44 with four working dishes on it right now, But I'd like to add in another location, The only way I have found to do this, is through using a DPP44 and a DP21. Like this guy did...

    LED's on dish

    Hopefully this isn't too off-topic for this section. But I was roaming around the forums a bit, and found the concept of putting LED's on your dish. I really like the idea, A few bright neon blue LED's aiming at the reflector would look pretty snazzy. How would you go about setting this up...

    My Dish Install, pics Descriptions, etc.

    I have a WRT350N, which its main purpose is a Access Point and a DHCP Server, A Cisco Small Business 10/100/1000 gigabit switch is connected to the WRT350N. I run a direct patch cable to the Receiver from my switch, I haven't really investigated much, but I believe the 922 is only capable of...

    5 Satellite Locations Possible?

    Hi all, I am really just asking out of curiosity, but is it possible to have more than 4 orbital locations on a dish network install? I have a DP44 out there right now, and I installed all my dishes myself, I'm just curious if adding another dish is possible with dish network, from what I've...
