It's a goner. I'm leaving on a business trip in the early AM, so I'll have to take care of the return when I get back in three weeks. The Tech's at Dish tried everything they could, but it just plain died. :( Seems somehow it lost the firmware(?) Luckily for me, I moved most of my favorite...

That didn't help so I made switch. I'm using the other Living Room Hopper now and will wait until the real world wakes up before I can to troubleshoot the problem with my Office Hopper. Thanks for the suggestions.

As a last resort, I unplugged the Sling Adapter and the External HD, unplugged for five minutes. Waiting to see if that helps...

Too bad about not being able to change the time. It always seems to pop the question when I'm not looking at it, so I usually have to wait and miss half of what I wanted to watch. I did try unplugging a few times for up to five minutes, no joy. I have two hoppers, so I'm now getting ready to...

While I was watching a show on Discovery at 2:00am, a message popped up asking if I wanted to allow some sort of receiver check. The prompt was optional and I was watching a show, so I said No. 30 seconds later the screen goes black, the Hopper starts rebooting and now all I get is "Hopper...

Are we going to place bets on how many days before the 2nd Hopper gets ordered? I'm taking 6 to 9 days... Don't forgot to post when it happens so we know who wins the pool. 1st prize will be a 50 Lb Chinook Salmon (it's in the ocean and you have to catch it yourself...)

I know there is a link to this on this site, but I can't locate it so here is a link to the same PDF from the net. http://gwdish.com/Hopper-Joey.pdf Mine's connected just like on Page #13 It goes: The Hopper's "TO NODE" goes in to the TAP's "TO HOST" The TAP's "TO CLIENT" goes to the HIC's...

On mine, it was $199.00 for the 2nd Hopper and $15.00 for the installation. I was told that since my account was only two weeks old, I was still considered a "New Customer" It all works out in the same in the end because I paid nothing for the 1st one.

What were they thinking?? Yes, it seems quite insane for 1/2 of the Hopper's storage to be either used for recording PTA, or not used at all. For the life of me, I cannot figure out what they were thinking. They should have set it to be used for either/or, not "Use it or Lose it!" I'll never...

I just finished up doing the exact same thing as you are planning, for the exact same reason. You will like two Hoppers much better than one, and it will bring peace back to your abode. Here's a link to part of my experience...

Is the Sling Adapter for a ViP722/722K the same as the Hopper's Sling Adapter SB700-100 ? Both are USB, but the ViP722's is known as a ES179081 and the Hopper a SB700-100 I'm thinking about adding another Sling for my 2nd Hopper.

I was told it is $199.00 plus another $15.00 for the install. I looked at my online account and that's what they charged me. I now have two Hoppers, one Joey, one HIC and one Sling Adapter. The one Joey can switch between the two Hoppers manually and I like it that way, but it's my...

First and foremost, Thanks for all the support from here. Friday the installer came back and left me with a TAP and it fixed the Home Media on the Joey problem just fine. It wasn't easy getting them to bring me a TAP. I called and very politely requested that they drop one off or possibly...

We opted to add the 2nd Hopper (at $199.00+$15 to install) instead of two Joeys and have been happy ever since. One Hopper would be fine if only one one person watches TV regularly and wants to move around the house watching their shows on the Joeys in various rooms. If two people have their...

How does one get them to do a "Rehit"? I tried contacting Tech Support online chat, but he didn't know what I was talking about. I have two Hoppers. one I've had for a week "old" and another I added two days ago ("new") Using the same exact drive, with the same cable and same power supply; I...

Thanks for that. Don't suppose you know if the isolators will block the one HIC from seeing both Networks or not? (I know, it's a bit early to be asking, but....)

Thanks for the info. #1 - The only Joey is not in a location where I can easily run a Ethernet to. #2 - I'm not even sure where he mounted the Node Client (somewhere on the side of the house) so that's out. #3 - My best Long-Term bet, if I can get them to leave it on my doorstep. #4 - My next...

OK, thanks for info. It's an easy step for me to run a RJ45 from the router to the "old" Hopper, so I'll just do that. I guess the HIC goes into a drawer to collect dust. Yes, he did run a 3rd cable to the dish. More out of curiosity than a real question: I was looking at the "Hopper Training...

We had a Hopper and two Joeys installed a week ago. After using it a few days and talking to Dish Tech Support, it was decided we would be better off with two Hoppers and one Joey. We like to record lots of shows and one Hopper was just not cutting it for three TV's+Ipad+Laptops. Today the...
