    Cost to upgrade from DVR 522 to HD DVR?

    All of this pricing info is blowing my mind :) I'm trying to help out my mom who has Dish Network through AT&T.. actually has had it since 2004 when it was SBC offering it. In any case, she has an old DVR 522 and I've been searching on these forums for some information on how much it costs...

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    Honestly, before visiting this forum I wasn't aware that AT&T *HAD* a homezone service. Never had heard of it, and I don't recall seeing it advertised in my area or on my bill. I originally started out with a 522 DVR and upgraded in February when I got an LCD TV. I do have a standard Dish...

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    Alright... figured out what it was. On a whim I called Dish support again and got someone who was actually knowledgable. The issue is that I am not a direct Dish Network customer.. I have it bundled with POTS and DSL from AT&T.. which sometimes I greatly regret because it sure doesn't...

    Even though you may have DSL the signal doesn't run over the standard RJ11 jacks, you still have to have a modem to be able to use the DSL signal. So.. the order is the signal goes from phone line, to DSL, to router, and then to your Dish box either via Ethernet cable or a wireless bridge

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    I am using a Linksys WRT54GS, so my logs probably aren't as detailed as I would need.. probably need to get around to loading DD-WRT. Anyway, this shows up in my logs after I go to Diagnostics --> Check Connection.. it's the only way I know to make it dial home because when I try Dial Out it...

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    Yes. Not to play this card, but my job is a Networking Engineer. It has IP connectivity.. Anyway shouldn't the option be there whether or not it's connected to broadband? Used a port scanner on the IP it pulled.. tighter than a snare drum. Nothing opened up. Will be interesting to see what...

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    Yeah I'm pretty sure based on what I'm seeing that DishONLINE probably sucks, but it may not always suck, and the *concept* itself is pretty cool, so I'm interested to see where they run with it. The reason for this thread is that - at least in my experience - once they release a "feature" in...

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    I tried rebooting.. no dice. This is what I don't get.. if L447 is supposed to have it, why doesn't it show up? Is DishONLINE released to general public? Are there multiple versions of L447? Tech support was completely clueless. It's not like I went searching the forums and found...

    VIP622 - No "DishONLINE" option in DVR menu???

    I have a VIP622 receiver and I received that short video explaining DishONLINE. I have my receiver connected via a wireless bridge, it is able to pull an IP and diagnostics say broadband connection is "OK". However, when I press the DVR button I get no "DishONLINE" option. I am on the L447...
