    522 remote interfering with 811.

    I recently upgraded to a 522 in my bedroom, which is on the other side of the wall where my 811 sits. Whenever someone controls the 522 in the bedroom, it also affects the 811. Is there a remedy for this?

    DVR-522 "offer" for existing customers (??)

    If it's been longer than a year since you took advantage of any offer then you DO qualify for the 522. I had to speak to three different CSRs before i found on who knew what he was talking about. To upgrade to the 522 it'll cost you $99($49 upgrade+$50 installation), installation is mandatory...

    522 Dishin'it up promo details

    I'm having a 522 installed on Sunday. Now, if i run a long telephone line to the 522 when it's activated for the first time can i later remove it and still avoid having to pay $5 per month for not having it connected to a phone line?

    522 Dishin'it up promo details

    Well here's my upgrade story: I ordered a 510 thas part of the "Dishing it up" promotion, paid $25 and was able to keep my old receiver. Called earlier this afternoon to inquire about the 522, got a CSR who obviously throws out all Dish related memos, as he had absolutely no idea about any...

    510+standard receiver, will it work?

    I just ordered teh 510 receiver last week and was wondering if (until i get a 522) i can use my current receiver, hook it up to the 510 and be able to view a channel other than the one being recorded? I'm pretty sure this would mean i'll have to pay an additional receiver fee, correct?

    Pretty much had it with the 811

    I must have one of the few decent 811 units then. I've only had to reboot it maybe 3 times in the last 8 months.

    2.80 screwed up my 'subscribed channels' list.

    When viewing the guide i usually keep it on "Sub. Channels". After d/l-ing the new update my sub list only shows informarcial channels, and other commercial channels. Anyone else notice this?

    My reception is losing strenght all of a sudden...

    Well, i'm just going to call them over until someone fixes the problem. The tree that stands in the front yard has been there for almost 60 years, so i doubt it's grown tremendously over the course of the 14 months i've been here.

    <RANT>India-Pakistan Cricket Tournament on Dish-Excessive Pricing</RANT>

    I would do as the above mentioned poster advised. If you pay hunderds of dollars for a special event, don't just let the friends freeload at your house without a contribution. Get 4 friends to come over and enjoy the match, that way you'll only pay $40. Plus, these types of events are more...
