    Adding Dish Network service to a second home

    Hey all. Just thought I'd post this question since I started floating the idea. I tried searching but it's been a while since I've been on here and I guess I don't know how to use it (everything looks waaaaay different). I have recently acquired a second home that already has Dish satellite...

    Dish online says I have 3 receivers?

    Wow they said they couldn't remove it because that was the receiver you used to open your account? IMO, that's dumb. What difference does it make knowing which receiver you used to open an account with Dish? Maybe you should call again and talk to another CSR :confused: Well, thanks all for...

    Dish online says I have 3 receivers?

    Before the 622, I did have a Philips 4700 and a JVC 2800. But I most definitely did NOT have a 4722. This is the picture it shows for the 4722 under my account: I upgraded to the 622 way back in the summer, so I'm thinking I should call them and ask them what the deal is?

    Dish online says I have 3 receivers?

    After reading the thread about the price hike coming up soon, I logged into my Dish account online to make sure I was still on the DVR Advantage plan. When I logged on for the first time since god knows when, I noticed that under "My Equipment" it says I have three receivers. The VIP 622...

    HD-DVD PLAYER $98.87!! at WalMart

    The difference between the A2 and A3 is the audio as mentioned earlier. A3 does Dolby Digital 5.1, A2 does DTS. There was a review online (forget which site) but they clearly stated that was basically the only difference. Supposedly the A2 is the better buy..

    If there's a one time fee of $40, do you have to pay an extra monthly ($5) to use the external hard drive as well?

    DISH Network II

    Yes, it takes FOREVER to build a satellite and launch it into space before it's ready. My mom came home and said she was working on a directv satellite that was nearing completion (the one that just launched I believe). She has also started on another echostar satellite for Dish. Cool huh...

    System Works Being Done

    I guess I'm not reading those numbers right. When I got to the page, it took forever to load. The page was still white with my load bar still showing it was loading. I guess it counts the seconds for pages differently and not what I thought. Whatever.

    Site slow/Not Loading up

    For me, the loading of the main page has always been slow compared to anything else. Of course, there has been times on the forums where it takes a few seconds to load...but the main page is the problem for me. This is on a comcast 6 mb connection.

    Can't see if FiOS is available in my area

    I've been trying to check availability on Verizon's website about FiOS and high speed internet, but every time I put in my address (I don't have a land line), it searches for availability then asks me to enter my address again. It's almost as if their availability system is stuck on a loop...

    ahhh man, that sucks! Yeah, I was actually thinking of waiting some more myself, but because I was coming back to SF for summer school, I decided to act on it now and get it over with. Good thing I did.

    Did they increase the price of the 622 from $149 to $199? That's so weird, because I ended up paying $149 for the 622 last week..

    Matrix Trilogy Set Received

    Sweetness. I few days I received my copy of the Matrix trilogy from Circuit City for $19.99! It came with a coupon to download the Animatrix for free on the 360. Now all I need is an HD-DVD player (don't have one yet). I was thinking about getting the 360 add-on, but I think I might get the...

    I did it...I got the ViP 622

    Yep, after wondering for a while whether or not to dump Dish and get DirecTv, I decided to call in and use the Dish it up program to get 622. The installer came in today along with a new 1000.2 dish. And wow, does that dish look big and slick! I was previously using the OLD dish 500 system...

    HD with DirecTV or Dish Network?

    Right now I have Dish Network with two EXTREMELY old receivers. I just got an HDTV, and now I'm thinking of getting HD. However, my monthly Dish bill is already nearing the $100 a month and I'm not too happy with it. (They keep increasing the price every so month or so it seems) Anyhow, I was...
