    Hearst Television Inc. blacks out DISH customers in 26 markets

    You are lucky. I live in NH, and can't use the OTA adapter as my reception here using an HD antenna is non-existent.

    4K Playback issue on Hopper 3

    My connection is not the fastest - 30 MB/15 MB. Getting that changed tomorrow to a 100 MB/50 MB connection. The download as it stands now takes forever for 4K content, so I'm hoping that this will improve with the higher speeds that I have coming. If I wait long enough, it seems that it...

    Trying to playback Defiance 4K that I downloaded from On Demand. Video will not playback. Every time I try to play it, my Hopper 3 will display a blank screen, and will lock up for a minute or so until I press the back button enough times to get out of the playback mode. Has anyone...

    HWS not seeing my WD MyCloud device

    After being with Directv for a few years, I decided to come back to Dish. This past week I got 2 HWS and 3 Joeys installed in my house. So far, I'm loving it. The Hopper is so much more responsive than the Directv Genie ever was. One issue I'm currently having though is that with Directv I...

    Dish Hopper with 2 Super Joeys - is it possible

    Ah, ok - thanks for that explanation. So if I call Dish, will they allow me to do this, or would they tell me that it can't be done ? I thought I read somewhere that they were only allowing 1 Hopper per account.

    Dish Hopper with 2 Super Joeys - is it possible

    Yes, but if I wanted to deviate from this with a 2 Hopper configuration, I can't do this from their website. Can I call Dish and ask for this, or do I have to go through a retailer to do this ?

    Dish Hopper with 2 Super Joeys - is it possible

    So if I go to Dish's website and configure my setup, they want to give me 1 Hopper, 1 Super Joey, and 3 Joey's, and you can't change it. If I call Dish will they allow me to get a 2nd Hopper instead of the Super Joey, or will I need to go through a Dish retailer ? Also I saw above stated that...

    Dish Hopper with 2 Super Joeys - is it possible

    How does that work? I assume you receive local programming via the OTA module, and can also use it to record, so it counts as a tuner?

    Dish Hopper with 2 Super Joeys - is it possible

    I'm currently with DirecTV and looking to make a move to Dish. My current Genie receiver is getting slower by the day to operate and is really frustrating me. One issue I'm having though with making the move to Dish is the number of available tuners I would have with the Hopper/Joey system...

    How many timers can you have with Hopper ?

    I'm considering making the move from Directv over to Dish. One issue I currently have with Directv is that I can only have up to 50 timers for shows in my series manager. Does Dish have a limit on this, and if so how many timers are you allowed on the Hopper ?

    Cancel with New Customer Sign-up

    What's different from signing up as a new customer through Directv or Costco, or even a local installer ?? Is going through Costco or local installer going to improve my odds ?? If so, I'm all for that.
