    New to Dish, Cover due to winter?

    I have heard from people who live in the cold - they just turn on a lightbulb, which is attached to the back of the dish, you might want to try that.

    The chat blew up!

    It was my very first time, that I watched this "Charlie Chat" and I am still speechless (well in a way -lol). We all watch Tv - else we wouldn't be here. Dishnetwork makes a lot of money with selling very good quality too and here they put up a show in a quality which is the worst I have seen...

    522 - Can't record and watch anymore??

    Hi Too Many Secrets, check if your 522 is set to "Single Mode" - which sounds like it. It can be found in: Menu/ 6/2 of I remember right - it should be set to "shared view. Let me know if this helped:)

    522 with a Separator?

    I just remember, when the DP44 was installed the first time - I had some switch errors too.. After trying out just about everything - I unscrewed all connections from the DP44 to the receivers - there is blue plastic cover - like a membrane over the connection going into the switch - After I...

    522 with a Separator?

    Hi sigarms226, what you could try is this: disconnect the line before the separator goes with 2 lines into the 522. Run a checkswitch ( to clear the switch matrix in the DPP44). Hook it back up and run a checkswitch again. If the same problem comes up again - switch the 2 lines from the...

    New dish owner with questions....

    Hi MartyB, Since your D* service is bundled with SBC - you will have no access to the Dish website to change or add any programs or receivers. When you call the dish phone# from home, you will be automatically transferred to SBC/Dishnetwork. They are the ones, who will do the changes for you...

    Dish Service Sux

    Same here, when I had D* cancelled, they came 8 months later, claiming that I am still with them - which was absolutely BS - (btw those money sharkes came NOT from India- but USA !) So I am very glad, to be away from D*

    CSR's can't speak English??

    Thank You very much VegasMargate for reminding us ! I started to think, that since the inability of speaking one straight sentence in plain english has become presidential, things have become better - I guess I am mistaken. kelder359 - who is to blame, when csr's as you claim know less than...

    If you had a choice:Satellite or Cable

    When I came to the US 8+ years ago, I had DirecTV, for 5 years - then Time-Warner, later sbc/dish - now just Dish . The worst was Time Warner, the pic quality rotten, even more rain fades, I ever had with D* or E* - as far as I know, they get their TV signals from Dishes as well - their...

    Old Dish Network brochure

    Thank you for reminding us! And the whole family had to stand around the dish with mirrors in their hands, just to get enough TV-Beams into the dish, so the picture wouldn't wash out!

    Does DISH allow more than one 522 or 625?

    it depends if Easy-g is a new customer or an existing customer. If they are an existing customer, than they might not meet the requirements for this offer. I am assuming that they are not new customers. So the cheapest way might be to get one receiver from E-Bay - BUT - make sure - before you...

    Does DISH allow more than one 522 or 625?

    Hi Easy-g , "allow more than one DVR unit per customer because they would use "too much draw from the signal" is the biggest *&^$#### I have ever heard. We have 1x921,1x942 and 1x625 and even when we take a shower together the signal stays the same. :D On top of this page you see several...

    Newbie w/ rain fade

    Since he is a sbc/dish customer, when he uses his homephone to call them, he'll be outomatically transferred to SBC/Dishnetwork. When I was sbc/dish "bundeling" - whenever I called them, I never was transferred to a country far away and their customer service was always VERY friendly. :)

    Do you tip your installer?

    the last installer, who admitted that my receiption on my Super dish (110,119,121)was bad, not because of a tree, but because the reflector was bent from the beginning and exchanged it after nearly 3 months , received a very big smile from me. Since her didn't accept any tip, I think he found...

    SBC giving 3 months free E*

    thanks for the post. Would be intersting if they offer the Voom HD channels to their new sbc/dishnetwork customers. That was my reason to cancle my dish bundle with them. I have no reason to complain about sbc at all - their attitude has changed a whole lot! They even started to send out polls...

    SBC/DISH Subscribers - Status of 2Wire's MediaPortal

    "Most SOHO routers that I've seen only support one IP address for the WAN port. You could've changed the pool of IP address for DHCP to match the IP address given to you by SBC" That is exactly what I did - and was told by one the 2wire - 3 tier tech, that they do not support it and my...
