    Spectrum Fiber TV Service

    I'm having Spectrum Fiber internet service installed this week. I'm getting conflicting answers about their TV service; do they or do they not offer a "traditional" tuner box with DVR? One rep said yes, of course. Another said they offer only streaming TV, possibly Sling. Thanks, Jack

    Dear Dish:

    I have paid my deposit and am anxiously awaiting the availability of Starlink. Yes, living in the boonies has it's disadvantages. Before we bought property and had a house built, we were told by the developer that broadband internet service is available; my own fault for not confirming this...

    StarLink Satellite Internet - The Forum?

    Yes, they are taking pre-orders, but there have also been product shipments. Just search YouTube for Starlink to see a number of videos showing installations, speed tests, and comments.

    StarLink Satellite Internet - The Forum?

    There have been more and more installs of Starlink over the past couple months. There is an active Starlink sub on Reddit, but a lot of people don't like Reddit (including me.) I think this would be a good time to start a Starlink forum here on SatelliteGuys.

    Dear Dish:

    Dear Dish: Your Video On Demand service in its current iteration is practically useless to those of us with slow internet connections, which is many who subscribe to satellite TV. Please, can't you go back to the old way and download video in the background? Or better yet, create a channel...

    Odd behavior with jumping back

    Thanks, TV Junkie. Yeah, resetting the box has fixed various problems for me in the past, but not this "issue." Not dissing your suggestion at all, but reminds me of a British comedy called "The IT Crowd" in which a tech support guy, who is just generally disgusted with people, answers every...

    Odd behavior with jumping back

    Thanks for the comments, Miner. I, too, am old-school, except when it comes to commercials. Can't stand most of them. If they were less obnoxious and demeaning, I could accept them more.

    Odd behavior with jumping back

    Sorry, couldn't figure out how to edit my original post.... Should have also mentioned that these two channels are the ONLY two I've see this behavior on, although I don't watch a ton of different channels. Jack

    Odd behavior with jumping back

    My wife and I have been recording a lot of shows from StartTV and MeTV lately (on a Dish Hopper.) The 30 second jump forward feature works fine, but the 10 second jump back is all over the place. Sometimes a single press goes back only about one second, other times way more, and even...

    Service Fee for Joey

    Well I'll be darned! I just discovered that I can install Dish Anywhere on my Amazon Fire TV Stick. I think this will work as well as a Joey for my needs, and no fee!

    Service Fee for Joey

    "You can have five devices, but you can only watch something on one of them at a time" (I can't seem to get the Quote feature to work.) This makes sense, but why then limit the number of devices you can install the app on? Still, it's like having a single Joey, without the extra fee.

    Service Fee for Joey

    That's an interesting technique! The reason I'm asking is, typically a subscription service charges extra because content providers charge fees partly based on how many viewers are expected. However, you can use the Dish Anywhere app to watch while someone else is watching something different...

    Service Fee for Joey

    I KNOW how much the fee is; that wasn't the question.

    Service Fee for Joey

    This may have been discussed already, but I couldn't find it. Why is there a service fee to use a (purchased) Joey?
