    522 Software L4.11 Issues?

    Good Morning ronfelder, Well the Dish rep came out Saturday morning (8am - noon) at 5 min to noon. No ladder to get on the roof, and very poorly dressed. But the good news was that he replaced the barrel connectors, and the diplexor inside and everything is back in working order. No new...

    522 Software L4.11 Issues?

    Yeah I am sure that it is the LNB as well. I just get the trying to aquire satellite screen over and over. I called them myself, and talked to a lovely operator who changed my appointment that the wife had made to Saturday. She also added in the notes for the service tech to bring along...

    522 Software L4.11 Issues?

    Thank you for the information ronfelder! I appreciate the quick response. I knew there was a reason that I came back to the boards. In addition, my 522 is able to play my recorded shows/movies, but will not get a response from the 119 or 110 sat's as indicated before. As for the email, I...

    522 Software L4.11 Issues?

    Have been having the same problem with my 522 as well. I will check the software revision tonight when I get home. But last night (durning MNF) I lost my connection all together! Ran through the tests, and it failed to connect to 119 or 110! Called Dish (talked to the Philipinnes) last night...

    Radio Shack closing up to 700 stores.

    Not only that, but when I went to my local Radio Shack the last two times, they told me that the item i wanted was no longer manufactured and or carried by them. And this was the Radio Shack brand of product!!

    So, what did you think of the Olympic opening ceremony in HD?

    Again they have too many cameras and are trying to get all of the angles at the same time! I wish they would have picked a camera angle, preferrably a wide shot to see more of the performances. Just my $.02~!

    Vip 622 In Box, Not!

    Ok seriously Scott that is funny. But on the other hand what is that all about? Are they shipping empty boxes now, just to stay on schedule. What is next? Have a service call at your house to come over and drink beer with you? Come on E* get it together!

    Recevied a 2nd 211...what to do?

    I am sure that there are many others on the forum that would like to have this same mess up in there house. Even more so if they were to mess up and give out 2 622's which we all know won't happen.

    E* adds Documentary Channel

    So far good shows on this channel. I have seen shows on Bob Marley, Ali vs. Chuvalo, and the King of Techno. Pretty pleased with the new channel and the content on it.

    Does E* want us to wait?

    Does anyone know if existing subs will get the rebate deal on other leased DVR's such as the 522?

    What are you going to do about the MPEG-4 transition?

    Will be waiting for the time being, and will enjoy my OTA HD instead. Hey just wanted to ask I saw in a post a couple of days ago that someone was saying something about getting the rebate on turning in a leased 522. Is there any truth to that? I apologize for posting this here, I can't seem...

    DISH Network and Lifetime Reach Multi-Year Agreement

    The quality of programming would be for channels to be in FULL HD not in HD lite as they have been for some time now. That is what I was referring to.

    DISH Network and Lifetime Reach Multi-Year Agreement

    Regardless of who caved, it just shows that E* is more about quanity than quality programming. Oh well more channels that won't be in MY favorites list.

    Upgrade Awarness HD channels in RED!

    Well we all knew that this change would cause some issues, and not with E* not having enough receivers to go around either. Not surprising, when I got home last night the woman was trying to look ahead to tape one of her shows, and 95% of the channels had no information available on the...

    Playboy

    See goaliebob99 I am with you. I was thinking that is was going to be included. I asked this question last week on a different thread, and I never got a straight answer, other than that the Extasy channel was better than the Playboy channel. Here is the post I was talking about that was...

    New HD Channels already showing up

    Is anyone pulling this up on a 942 at all? Just curious, I know this is supposed to be MPEG 4 but seriously can we trust anything E* says anymore. Thanks for all of the great update information!!

    Scott's Crystal Ball Prdictions (A PLEA TO DISH NETWORK)

    Well myself, and the masses out there, would love to be one of the first ones to get the VIP622 up and running this week. But the real reality of it is, just as Scott said, there will be a lot of pissed off people. I will be enjoying my HD OTA for the time being but it won't be long where I...

    Significantly Viewed channels in red?

    I live in Rockin, and have a 522. I can't wait to get home to see what is going on with this channel business. I have to see this for myself. Wouldn't that be great if it was E* getting ahead of itself once again. Just like we have seen over the last month.

    Using a DVR and DVD recorder ?

    What about pocketdish? If you have pocketdish can you download your content to the pocketdish and then upload it back once you get your VIP622? Just wondering...

    NEW DishHD web site found! (And now it's gone)

    Being in the web development business there are better ways to get a site ready to stage to go live. Especially a company as large as E* you think that they would have the man power to keep this under wraps until the 1st of Feb as well all know is the "go live" date for the upgraded HD service...

    NEW DishHD web site found! (And now it's gone)

    Great find, haven't seen it yet but the funny part is that is links back to the regular Dish site which has no information on the new recievers or programming. So again trying to order something that isn't really there. Dish you are getting ahead of yourself once again.

    HBO price increase > $14.99 /mo Feb 1st

    No I TOTALLY agree with you there, no comparison between the playboy and TEN or Extasy. But the playboy channel would be easier to get for $7 than it would be to add the Extasy channel for quite a bit more. Plus there is the issue of the woman being more accepting of the playboy channel than...
