I know this is just picky, but my Samsung Messages app shows a callback (CB# xxxxxxxxxx) every time it receives an SMS message. I know it doesn't affect functionality, but it's like a little itch in my brain that I can't scratch when I see it. The Callback number setting turned to Off...

Just an update. I noticed over the weekend that my HBO-GO (on the ROKU) had trouble logging in. After that, I did an extended ping test from a DOS prompt on my computer and noticed that I was dropping packets; not a lot (approximately 1%), but maybe enough to cause issues authenticating. I...

Just an update... I just got off the phone with ESPN. They verified that with my Dish Network America's Top 200 package, I should be able to get Roku programming on the ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN News, ESPNU, and SEC Network channels. I don't have access to any of the (+) channels like ESPN+ or...

Ok. I thought only the previously free to stream with subscription ESPN3 and some other overflow content was on ESPN+. I didn’t know that core ESPN programming had switched over too. So now, are ESPN, ESPN-2, ESPN-U, and SEC channel all on ESPN+?

Ok, i must not understand. I'm trying to watch sports enents that are on the ESPN channel on television, but are being denied on the streaming app. (Mainly ESPN and ESPN-U). As far as i know, I'm not trying to stream anything from ESPN+.

America’s Top 200. The ESPN app has always worked in the past, just not now. They’ve been giving me issues for the last couple months or so.

I tried that. It had no effect. I also disconnected from my WiFi, and reconnected. No effect. My WiFi isn't the fastest (15x3 mbps), but it should handle ESPN. Amazon, HBO, Fandango, etc... all work perfectly.

I have two Rokus (Roku1and a new Roku Express). Both are now giving me error messages when I try to stream ESPN content logged in through my Dish Network account. They alternate between “Playback Error has Occurred” and “Your provider doesn’t grant access to this content. Check out ESPN’s new...

I have a Roku 1 connected through WiFi that, up until January, worked perfectly. It was fast and responsive. Ever since about mid January, it has begun to lag when changing screens, and takes forever to load information when browsing different programs (worst is Amazon and Fandango). Worse...

An antenna is not an option in our area. We can only pick up one channel (at best). They don't currently have Internet, so when you combine the price of Internet service (only one ISP in our area) with that of a streaming package, it's more than they are paying for cable. From what I've read...

My cousin wants to switch from cable to satellite. He says that all he wants is locals, the Hallmark channels, and a news channel. My first thought was the Welcome Pack with the Heartland package, but I don't even know if the Welcome pack qualifies for add-on packages. May have to go with...

That would be an ideal situation except they don't have Internet. To get it with high enough speed for reliable video would cost them about $60/mo, so it would be less to upgrade their satellite package. Their part of the byegone generation. They won't buy something unless they need it, and...

Well, they don't watch much of anything in the base pack. They'd have to have the locals pack... No OTA here News Pack... They watch the news a lot Heartland Pack... Mom likes Hallmark and Hallmark Movies Then to get all the college basketball, they'd need both action packs. That comes to...

They only watch about 5 channels. If they didn't have those, I doubt they would watch TV at all.

It's not the cost of adding the sports packs. The some of the channels they like on the Smart Pack aren't on the Flex pack or Top 120, so they would have to add additional channels on Flex or go to Top 200 to keep their favorite channels; either way it figures to over $70/mo. As it is now...

I looked at that. They only watch a few channels, and switching to flex pack would cost them the same as Top 200 to get the channels they watch now with the sports channels.

Hey guys, I know this might be a stupid question, but... My parents dropped cable last year because of the expense. They only watch a few channels, and are very happy with the Smart Pack. The only problem is that college basketball here is now almost exclusively on ESPN and SEC Network, and...

Could be. I had a dish network lnb that acted that way once, and had to be replaced. It has the shark fin type antenna, and I've read that they are a little more likely to go bad than the shaft antennas. I'll have to take it to the dealer and get it checked.

It uses Sirius. This was in my front yard. It has never failed to pick up a signal there.

Hey guys. I've had Sirius radio in my 2012 Kia Optima ever since I bought it, and it's always played flawlessly. Today my signal dropped at least 25 times on a 15 minute trip, and said Acquiring Signal about 10 times. No obstacles in the way, same routes I've always driven. Any idea what...

Thanks guys.

I In his location no locals are available OTA. I showed him a list of channels, and he was very interested. I was just worried because I read somewhere that the Welcome Pack had been changed to "grandfathered customers" only, but other sources say that new or returning customers can sign up...

Hey guys, a friend of mine used to have Dish a couple years ago, but cancelled his service for cable. He has since dropped cable and is only using a ROKU. I was telling him a few days ago what I knew about the Welcome Pack (which admittedly isn't much) and he was very interested. He still...

A few days ago I found myself in need of a WiFi router. I looked at the local stores (Wal Mart, Staples, Radio Shack), and the only thing I could find under $50 was a Belkin for $39. Not being a fan of Belkin, I searched the internet for a good, reliable, cheap router. What I found was a...

Well, i bought a couple of these to set up a wireless bridge. It cost just under $100. In order to set one up as a station and the other as an access point, I had to download and update the firmware. After configuring them and setting them up at the end of each building, I powered them on...
