    Android Specifications For SlingBox With DISH Network 722k

    Thank you very much for the reply. Yes, that is a good reminder about the home internet. I have DSL because I can't get cable where I live, so that very well might be the biggest limiting factor of all! Most of the time it is pretty good. Sometimes I listen to TV audio on my drive to work...

    Android Specifications For SlingBox With DISH Network 722k

    I have both a Sling Adapter and a Sling PRO-HD connected to my DISH Network 722k receiver. Sling works okay on my Garminfone, but it can be slow on start up and slow to respond. My phone currently is a Garminfone, which is on T-Mobile, and is only capable of 3G. I am considering a new...

    DISH 722k Has To Be Power Cycled Every Morning

    My previous DISH 722k had to be power cycled every morning. A couple weeks ago I got a replacement and this one behaves the same. I called DISH Technical Support and they didn't offer anything that was helpful. Does anybody here have any helpful suggestions? Should I call again and ask to...

    Sling with my droid not working at all...

    Sling Player Mobile I also bought a Sling Adapter a while after they first became available. I have noticed that it can have issues, but I still like having it with my DISH 722k. One of my issues if I use it very much is I only have 2 GB of data through T-Mobile. It doesn't take long with...

    Can I Stream Just The Audio From My DISH Network 722k?

    I have a DISH 722k now and a Sling Adapter. I like to stream to my Android phone, but I usually use all of my data plan allocation before the end of the billing cycle and I get my data speed throttled. Anyway, is there some way to stream just the audio from my DISH 722k receiver?

    DISH Sling Adapter Vs. Slingbox Performance

    I have had my DISH Sling Adapter for a year or so now, but I have never used the regular Slingboxes. I m just wondering if the perform about the same? For example, my DISH Sling Adapter can have some buffering from time to time, which I attribute to my slow network(s). Anyway, for those that...

    Newer WebSlingPlayer links - including chome (!) - web sling player - 1.5.7.158

    I will give this a try, too. My issue is that the shared computer I want to try this on doesn't have the most current Adobe Flash Player and since I can't install it on a computer that isn't mine, I need to be able to do this via USB Flash Drive.

    Sling Adapter Problem

    Thank you for the replies. I do have a DSL filter. I tried the other URL, but I get the same result. Then I wondered if my CPU is too slow to handle this, but I checked and I have an Intel Pentium 4 2 gHz processor. However, I only have 1 GB of RAM and it looks like it might be enough for SD...

    Sling Adapter Problem

    I have searched quite a bit this weekend, but I can't seem to get a definitive answer on this one, so here goes. I now have the dreaded: "Your computer was able to connect to your device, but the connection was interrupted. (Error 36) Please try connecting again." My 722k is connected via...

    DISH Online On A Shared Computer

    I am thinking of installing Mozilla Firefox on a jump drive and using that when I am at a public computer, say at a hotel or public library, to watch DISH Online. I am just wondering if anybody here is doing that or if it will work.

    SatelliteGuys First Look Review - DISH Sling Adapter

    I was out of town in Atlanta GA for the better part of 6 weeks. I used the DISH Remote Access with my DISH 722k and Sling Adapter through my Garminfone a fair amount in the evenings. While the application certainly isn't perfect, I really enjoyed using it to watch local Minneapolis-Saint Paul...

    Dish Remote Access On T-Mobile Garminfone

    I have a Dish 722k and a Sling Adapter connected to it. Every so often when I am outside I like to use the Dish Remote Access on my Garminfone on the T-Mobile network to listen to a program. I get mixed results. Sometimes it will work for quite a while and other times it will freeze up. What...

    DISH 722k PSIP On Over The Air Channels

    Perhaps what Derwin0 means is that more recent new subscribers get locals included with the bundles offered. I am not sure if that is the case or if that is what he is referring to, but that is simply my best guess. I think my current package would be somewhere between $5 to $10 more per month...

    DISH 722k PSIP On Over The Air Channels

    DISH Electronic Program Guide (EPG) I was unaware of that. When did it change? Does this mean that I also have locals via the satellite, too, then? They don't show up in my guide. Does this mean if I disabled the OTA tuner that they would show in the guide from the satellite? A few years...

    DISH 722k PSIP On Over The Air Channels

    I am now noticing PSIP data (channel guide information) on the Over The Air terrestrial channels on my DISH 722k. When that happened a couple of years back they eventually vanished as unexpectedly as they appeared. For the record, I don't subscribe to any locals through the satellite, but I...

    Barebones HTPC For DISH Remote Access

    I was thinking that given the cost of say a Roku player for NetFlix vs. BluRay Disc players with streaming vs. Booksize PCs, a person could also set one of these up near a TV and it would allow NetFlix streaming as well as a HD version of TV2 from 622/722/722k receivers that are equipped with...

    Barebones HTPC For DISH Remote Access

    I am just curious is anybody here is using a barebones HTPC for DISH Remote Access? I saw a small ASUS recently at a MicroCenter and I was thinking that might be a nice, reasonably priced HTPC for just that application.

    DISH Network Content Delivery Via The Internet

    I guess I haven't been playing close enough attention then, is the Sling Extender available now? I thought that it had been delayed for an long time now. Well, not exactly. I have the DISH Sling Adapter and I still get my content via satellite. I am wondering about getting all of the...

    DISH Network Content Delivery Via The Internet

    Does anybody here happen to know if DISH Network is planning on offering their service via internet anytime soon?
