My experience with the hopper has been bad. Constant problems and no help from dish. It was their excuse to up the rates with a buggy piece of equipment.

If I pause a show on a channel where I also have a recorded show saved, when I hit resume it goes to a message that says the recorded show as finished and forces me back to live tv which cause it to jump ahead and I lose all of the show I paused. The thing is that the recorded show has nothing...

Netflix on the hopper is worthless.

Hi, I mentioned this before and got no response so I will post the details again in hopes someone has a thought! Ok, so I am watching channel 205 from 3-6, I also have two shows set to record at 4 and 5. I am watching regular tv on 205, not the recorded show. Let's say I pause tv at 4:45, at...

Let's see if I can explain this. Watching channel 205. At five a program on 205 is set to record, remember I am already watching 205 before the recording starts. I have paused tv then go back to watching. When the recording ends I get a pop up telling me the recording has finished with the...

My Hopper 3 goes to sleep regardless of what you are doing. It will go to sleep while scrolling the guide, watching a show etc. with no message. This happens all of the time.

Aside from the device failing you may want to see if a different patch cable helps. Is there anything new near the cable that could be causing interference? Power cords etc.

Couldn't figure out how to modify the subject of my previous post so this is an update! After more research I can see that the signal strength is fluctuation between 13 and 55. One hour it's at 18 then in a while it is at 54 then back to 22. The tech was out and saw the week signal but then...

Hi all, I have had my Hopper 3 for a while now and most things are going ok. One issue I have now is the sat signals seem to be much worse than before (previously on 922). I know the installer changed the LNB and now I lose signal much faster and more frequently than before. I even told the...

I switched my external HD from my 922 over to the Hopper 3 and no issues.

I tried the Netflix app when I got my Hopper 3 and the picture was crap. I went back to using the Roku. By far the best device for Netflix. It works better for Netflix that other devices I have tried, and that's a lot! Just my thoughts.

I am getting much more pixilation since going to the Hopper 3. The LNB was changed and I suspect that.

No worries!! I had to look again in case I missed it!

Got the new "40" remote and it is the 186228!! It synced in a second and works perfect for what I need for the bedroom, second TV. I like this style for use "in the dark" it is real easy to know what button is what by feel, especially after using the 32 for so long. Looks like it came...

No record button on the 52!!

Mine did that the other night and I thought oh crap here we go with this problem from the 922. I hit a bunch of keys and it came out of it. Not sure what I did! I think it was just channel changes, menus, guide, DVR etc. Just pushed a bunch of things. Maybe it was going to an info screen ...

I have seen this behavior also that DishSubLA mentions. I find that sometimes shows on food network will record again even though they are a rerun because they have repackaged the show or something. I found if I really want to catch all shows, just in case, I have to set the timer to new &...

I don't so must be someone else ...

Will do. Is there something about that one I am unaware of?!

Good to know.

I think you are right. Seems there is a third number also.

I saw the label on the back. As long as they actually send that one! It is a new remote not used so we will hope I get what was pictured and described.

So far it looks like they don't!

Thanks everyone for all of the support here! I'll be psyched when I have two working remotes! It's the little things!

The word in a dish forum is that the 186217 will not pair with a hopper but only the joey but the 186228 will work with hopper's and joeys. I don't know for sure but ordered the 186228 to be safe!!
