    Genie mini freezing

    Forgive me for this, but I'm a Dish guy with system installed at our camper in NC mountains. However, we share a home with our son & family in Florida. They signed up for Directv after Verizon sold out to Frontier (YUK) in Tampa Bay area. Main receiver (DVR) + 4 minis. Only the mini in our area...

    We Sold Our House :-)

    Nope, don't own. I will just bring 622 back up to mountains. Shoot, its just sitting home all lonely anyways.

    We Sold Our House :-)

    Had not thought about switching receivers. Thank you for that idea. We did add the DVR to the 211k but at least with the 622 up here we would not have to go to the park cable to watch something while recording.

    We Sold Our House :-)

    Our house in St Augustine, FL sold after being on the market for only one week. The decision to sell the house was made while away for the summer at our permanent campsite in the North Carolina mountains. While camping, we bring our 211k with us and leave our 622 at...

    Is that Betsy Kling? If so, she is good and she used to be in JAX, FL with her husband Paul Thomas.

    Dealing With Dirt!!! :)

    Cudo's to Satellite Guys (dfergie) and the Dish Network 'DIRT' Team, especially MaryB who helped us yesterday with our malfunctioning 211K. We private messaged for a bit and then MaryB called and we tried various things to try to get it to turn on. But alas, all was for naught as the receiver...

    DVR for RV

    We take our 211k w/us to the NC mountains when we go in in our RV - May thru Oct. I had a 1000.4 dish set up on our site last year. My question is: If we wanted to change from our Jacksonville, FL locals to NC locals, would we be able to? JAX locals are CONUS and we get them now but I may be...

    Dish site list HD movie channels that I'm not receiving

    Was just on the Dish site and they list The Movie Channel Extra (328) & The Sundance Channel (332) in HD. I am not able to view either of these channels in HD. :( I did do a reboot, but still these channels are not there in HD. What's up w/that? This is true on both of our receivers - 622 and...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    OS: Windows. On phone w/WD yesterday. Since EHD is still under warranty, they are sending a replacement and I will then return this dead one. I say dead. Upon insertion of power cord, it just clicks 3 times and the harddrive does not spin. Good thing the 622 @home is still recording the...

    Combining CATV With 211K

    :)I'm no expert on the subject, but we are also currently 'camping' until next October. We too have a 211k, but are using it w/1000.4 dish planted on a pole in the ground. I paid the Sat guy to do this - aiming this thing just didn't work out for me and the trees, he had to find just the...

    Strange occurrence with Sat 72...

    I had to do it last night as well, but just on our 211k. The 622 was fine. This is also not the first time I had to do this. Also, sometimes our 622 won't come out of sleep mode either until it is re-booted, that is. Electronics. They work great when they are doing the things they were...

    Remote not working.

    This has happened @least 4 times recently w/our 622. Its not the remotes fault. I checked it out by taking it into the bedroom and turning on the 211k w/it and it worked just fine. Just another bug for them to work out...

    612 or 211 with EHD?

    Please advise which EHD you are using. My 211k w/Seagate doesn't do well @all. I haven't connected it in awhile because of this. Also, when I had the 211 connected via HDMI cable, most times upon turning on the receiver & the TV, its like the receiver never came on. Now it is connected via...

    211k went stupid and won't come back...

    Our 211k acts stupid w/HDMI cable as well. Receiver connected to Sanyo 26" HD set in our bedroom. With HDMI cable, sometimes when it is turned on, it doesn't turn on so to speak. Other times, it comes right on. After several on/offs, (receiver on/offs, ie) it will come to life. I have now...

    :(Welcome to our world. We have been having the EXACT same problems with the EXACT same Seagate EHD. Every time I think I have it beat, it craps out again. Just this past weekend I thought I had it going again but alas, it was not to be. This has been going on with us for the same period of...

    New VIP211K with DVR Questions

    :eek::eek:OH MY GOD :eek::eek: I am so happy that I saw & read this post today. We have a 211K and I added an EHD several months ago. It worked - AT FIRST - then it quit and I had to constantly reboot to get it to work and then - NOTHING. I was even on chat w/Dish Tech. They could not get it...

    Question on getting HD Locals

    Our next door neighbor just switched from the other guys, did not want HD, BUT, got a 722K and the JAX, FL locals in HD, along w/a few other HD channels. We are Eastern Arc, if that makes a difference.

    EHD Issues

    MY EHD for our 211K has also quit. It is not recognized and we cannot enjoy the shows already recorded on it. Dish Tech Chat told me it is a known problem @this time and has given me $10.00 for the next 5 months. Wifey not happy. 622 already recording and the 211K was for duplicate recording...
