It technically is already setup. Dish just took the existing cabling for Cable and disconnected that and connected to the Dish. So I just need the receiver. I already have the cable run

I'm an existing Dish Network customer and have been with them for 1 year. I have another 6 mos under contract. I have the DVRAdvantage 200 with HD essentials. My first and only receiver is a VIP722. I am looking to add a second receiver. I called Dish and they can get me a SD receiver for...

I had Dish Network installed yesterday. The install went very smooth until the installer tried to activate the new 722. Dish Networks system used to activate the 722 was down. They told us it would be restored in 30 min to 24 hrs. I just laughed. The installer ended up leaving without...

802.11b should be fine even for VOD. I doubt that your internet connection will be faster than the throughput for 802.11b

Sweet! I didn't know if the Chicago locals were CONUS or not. Thanks!

I had to resignup due to a technicality in my previous order. The rep selected the enhanced HD-DVR which was not available before today. My install is set for Aug 21st so we'll see of enhanced HD-DVR refers to the 722 or not.

I am scheduled for a Dish install on Aug 18th. I live in Peoria and am about 125 to 150 miles out from Chicago. If I "moved" to a Chicago address after signing up, will I be close enough to get the HD locals through Dish?

That's news to me. I have an install setup for Aug 18th and when I signed up I asked if i still had 30 days to cancel if it was not acceptable and the CSR said yes that would still apply. Dish would have a small suit claim if I did want to cancel, but they try to charge me the termination fee...

True, but your wife, mother, or other relative would be a new customer, wouldn't they?

Are you still in the 30 day window to cancel? If so, couldn't you cancel and then sign up a short time later under a different phone number and name?

A bridge and game adapter are the same. The game adapters are labeled as such to indicate a higher level of performance. Sometimes that is true other times it is not. The Linksys gaming adapter is completely configurable through a PC and can work with an xbox, xbox 360, or PS 2 to boot.

I plan on using a Linksys WGA54G gaming adapter that I bought a while back. I am scheduled to have Dish installed on Aug 18th and will report back on how that worked. FYI, I have 2 unopened Linksys WGA54G gaming adapters I'd be willing to sell, send PM for more info.

For fun I called the Dish hotline for signing up as a new customer. After going through endless loops at the account number prompt, I ended up talking to a CSR. I asked what specials Dish was offering for new customers. I was more or less looking to see what kind of deal I could get from them...

Thanks, nyvram! That bounty discount would put me exactly where I would want to be cost wise. I'll be calling and signing up once I find out that the IP callback is working and will remove the $5 no phone line fee.

I am getting ready to drop cable and make the jump to Dish. I am trying to maximize the offers that Dish currently has. I would like to get the free Vip622 or Vip722. Right now, I really don't have a strong preference even though the 722 has a higher amount of storage. Is it possible to sign...

You guys are awesome. If I lease the 942 at $250, would the 625 still be free? If I get the 942, I would dump the 6000 and would not need 5 hookups. Also by having the 942 and 625 my additional fees would be the following right (rounded for simplicity)? additional receiver: $5.00 Dvr...

Thanks for the tip. I am still toying with the idea of the 942 to get HD and dvr in one box and skip 2 rooms. Is the 942 still available for $250 upfront for new customers? Thanks again.

I had Voom until it shut down. I had it installed in my living room. I am now looking to get Dish installed in 4 rooms including the living room. I have a Dish 6000 box for OTA HD and will use that in my living room. I also want a DVR in the living room, but since the 6000 box is already...
