As the guy who posted the original question, let me say thanks for all the replies. I just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing out on a secret discount.

I'm curious as to what people are paying for Dish Hopper/Joey service per month. I was prompted to write this after seeing the latest Dish commercials saying that DirectTv customers pay over $100/month and Dish customers pay 30% less. I've had my Hopper setup since August of 2012 so I guess I'm...

Thanks much for your input.

Yes.

It's sunny & clear right now

Here's what I got

Could this be bad pointing of the dish?

I frequently "lose satellite signal" on Espn News channel on one receiver at a time. It won't work on my hopper but will be fine on a Joey, & vice versa. It's the same lost signal screen we see when rain or snow wrecks the signal. All other channels (that I check) are fine. The signal always...

Today I noticed that only a few of my timers are working. I have 80 timers and many act like they have no upcoming events. The guide is fully populated. If I make an entire new timer it seems to be fine. I've noticed this in the past on a few timers, but never have this many timers failed at...

This has been happening to me since I upgraded to a Hopper. When I'm watching a recorded show, about 2 minutes before it ends, the show blips or hiccups for a half second, but keeps playing normal right after. It does this for all timer playbacks. Anyone else experience this?

Lately on one of my Joeys, if I rewind or skip back while watching a program, about 5 seconds into watching the replay, the program will jump back to live mode.

Sold

I have lowered the price to $75 and listed this on Ebay with a picture: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dish-Network-ViP-222k-/180964771486?pt=US_Satellite_TV_Receivers&hash=item2a2257469e Thanks for looking.

If 3 programs are recording on my Hopper simultaneously, I cannot delete any past recordings. You have to wait until one of the tuners is free before you can delete.

I have a VIP 222k for sale. It's in perfect condition. I have the original box, manual, both remotes, remote antenna, and the splitter & triplexer. I'd like $80 which includes shipping to the lower 48 states. PM me if interested or you need more details. Thanks.

I'd like to sell a Dish receiver of mine, but I can't post in the Classified section. Does anyone know how I become a "supporting member" so I can post an ad? Thanks.

I've had my hopper for three days with wifi. Yesterday I couldn't watch live or DVR on iPad. Just a black screen comes up after connecting to Hopper. This morning my entire wifi network was down. Hard wire from router to pc was just fine. Unplugged router and wifi came back, but dropped off...

Seems to be fine despite the low signals. The search function is working now and my timer priorities fixed themselves. I had made a bunch of timers using the iPad app and it kept skipping numbers in the priority chain. (Example: Timer A would be priority 10, the next timer would be priority 12)...

The software of my Hopper updated to 217 overnight.

I ran the tests again, this time with a little different results. There was a storm moving through the area earlier, but it only rained lightly. 61.5 tp 10=38 tp14=38 tp29=27 tp31=28 72 tp15=45 tp17=50 tp19=46 tp21=50 77 tp13=40 tp16=42 tp20=41 tp21=38

I unplugged one more time and this time the guide finished downloading! I can finally create timers. I'm still curious what the signal strengths should be. Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

What should the signals be at? I had a 722 & 222k before with no issues. Recently I had a new roof installed and they temporarily removed the dish. I had the tech look it over today and he said it was all good.

All of the signals ranged between 29-42 except 77 tp13 is at 70.

I'm not sure how to check which three sats. 61.5 for sure. I just called the installer company and they called Dish to have them send a "hit" to my hopper. Also unplugged for 15 seconds. Green progress bar back up to 95% and hanging there.

No errors. My software is S213. Could it be that the Hopper is so far behind the current software version this update will take a while?
