    protection plan

    Ok so you can have 2-211's on the account but not on the same dish as the hoppers? Can anyone answer the last part of my question on the Hopper limit on one account?

    protection plan

    Is 5 Hoppers the limit? Can I do 5 Hoppers, a Joey, and 2- 211k's for one system? Can I do 6 Hoppers and 2- 211k's? I currently have 5-922's, 622, 211, 3900. Dsih sent my a letter that I need to replace my 3900 by May 31, 2015. Thinking of upgrading my whole setup. I know they only let you mix...

    Hopper Limit?

    I don't have a problem with buying the equipment. I just want to make sure that it is possible to hook up and if Dish would have any problem activating the equipment? My setup now I have a 1000.2 dish 110, 119, 129 and a wing dish 61.5. I have all this going to two DP44 switches. So I can keep...

    Hopper Limit?

    I know that you cannot mix hopper receivers with other models unless it's a 211. My question is, is there a limit to the amount of hoppers you can have on the account? I now have 4- vip922's, a vip622, and a 211. Can I replace them all with 6 hoppers if I buy them? My biggest issue is my 922's...

    Dish type , size, arc

    I'm looking to stay with a dish network brand dish. I have heard that the 1000.4 with the 110, 119, 129 adapter would be the biggest and give me the best signal? But I have heard that they are going to quit making it because of cost on there part and that the lnb's will be hard to find after. I...

    VP722k won't work on subscribed channels after setting unused for a few months.

    How long have you had it hooked up and working to a live line again since you put it back in service? I had this exact thing happen but on a different model receiver. I left it hooked up and running but turned off and no timers firing for 24 hrs and it regained all normal function when I tried...

    Can you format the hard drive in a VIP 922 and or Hopper?

    I tried Googling it and looking in this forum with no luck. So no 922 or hopper user ever formatted the drive in their receivers?

    Can you format the hard drive in a VIP 922 and or Hopper?

    Yes I do mean the internal hard drive. Also this receiver is leased and I don't want to mess with opening it for obvious reasons. All the receivers seem to have a way to reformat the hard drive. I would assume this one does also. Just a matter of if anyone knows the way?

    Can you format the hard drive in a VIP 922 and or Hopper?

    I would like to know if it is possible to force a hard drive format on a VIP 922 or even a Hopper for that matter as the interface is very similar? I know on previous receivers like the Vip 722 there was a key combo on the remote control you can push to do a memory dump and a hard drive...

    Ok alittle confusing between your two answers. $10 + 7 first answer.$45 receiver fees. Second answer $7 receiver fees. $6 Dvr fee. $4 whole house fee. Which is correct? Is the $6 Dvr fee per hopper or per account? What is the $4 whole house fee?

    SatelliteGuys FIRST LOOK - DISH's Hopper and Joey

    I have 7 receivers on my account. Two hoppers and 4 joeys will cover 6 of my 7 receivers. Will Dish let me get two hoppers, 4 joeys and let me keep my 922? Also will the joeys and or hoppers work with google tv? Can someone go over the fees for the hoppers and joeys? Is it cheaper the same or...
