Hi everyone, I'm moving to Rogers Park in Chicago next week and I'm thinking about RCN for internet services and I'd like to also get an idea what their television services are like. If anyone has anything to share, please go ahead and post. Thanks. :)

Well thats depressing. I tried to go CE on my R15-300 and this explains no white GUI.

Could you post a higher res photo of that?

I'm at work currently, so I'll try a reboot when I get home.

First my apologies for the thread necromancy. I seem to have lost the default guide filters on my R15 after a power cycle of the box. I have a probably weird request as to how can I get those guide filters back? :)

I got my install done yesterday (two R15's and a 3-LNB dish). The installer who was a fantastic guy and easy to work with accepted my request of installing a 3-LNB dish even though his work-order had him to install a round dish. I'm planning my "move" for Indy locals later this month and I'm...

Right now in West Lafayette, the only carriers of the BTN will be DIrecTV and I heard somewhere that the residence hall TV service will carry it as well. Anyway, I'm interested to see how the whole thing with the BTN pans out.

I figured a good and cheap way to get past the land line issue if one arises is add a dial-able phone number to my Skype account which is ~$8/mo to dial in and out.

Since I've gone and ordered D* now, all I hope for is someone to tell me I didn't do something stupid and that I'll enjoy the service. :o

I'll have to "move" but I'm well within the spotbeam for Indy locals.

As a SD customer, can I get my SD locals with the 3-LNB dish or will I need an AT9 or Slimline?

The CSR said that I would be able to order PPV with my remote even without a land line. *shrugs* Also, I'm getting a 3-LNB dish since I just have a SDTV. But spotbeam maps show that I shouldn't have problems getting Indy locals anyway (hopefully).

So I went and bit the bullet today and I have a DirecTV installation appointment later this month. The CSR told me on the phone that D* would install what is basically a dry-loop phone line to the back of my DVR. How would this dry-loop affect my chances of "moving" for Indy locals?

Repost the link. It's broken.

And when you factor in the relative ease users can spoof their IP addresses, it really isn't a viable alternative to a land line. The big problem I see is that with people my age who are in or just graduating from college, they grew up--more or less--with cell phones. So its not like they will...

It will be a long time coming when D* and E* catch up to TiVo and allow customers to plug their receivers into their home networks instead of their phone lines. Since the ViP622 already has an Ethernet port, such a thing would only be a software update away.

Not only that, but going OTA I can only get a very blurry CBS with no regular season NFL license and an evangelical Christian channel.

I already checked a map and I'm within the Indianapolis spotbeam.

I also heard that a land line is needed for software updates. Is that true? I have at her uncle's house. A great way to pass time during boring games was counting the beads of sweat. :)

The uncertainty of DISH carrying the Big Ten Network is killing me. :(

As of right now I have DISH Network, but I'm thinking of going to DirecTV due to the sports packages--most notably the Big Ten Network and MLB Extra Innings--since my girlfriend and I are huge Red Sox fans and I love college football. Regarding setup, this is for a five year old 20" SD...

For the sports nuts, is the decrease in SD picture quality bearable with all the extra sports options over what E* has to offer? I need my Big Ten Network! I currently have E* for what its worth.

With the abundance of cell phones and many of my friends out there in the real world only having a cell phone, both D* and E* are limiting their customer base. Anyway, I know that TiVo-proper offers an Ethernet port on some of their newer boxes along with a landphone port for programming and...

How does the DVR Advantage discount break down? I currently have it (so I know it's requirements), but I'm unable to get a good idea of how it breaks down.

I was doing some comparison shopping today between telecommunications providers in my area and what really has me confused is whether or not I would be subject to a lease fee for my 625 anytime ever. I'm currently planning on buying a ViP211 and DISH 1000.2 package from Sadoun and integrating...
