    DIRECTV NOW LAUNCH

    Sorry to see so many people had issues with the service. I was able to create an account and was watching on my TV in like 3 minutes on my Windows 10 PC. I mean this is already better than Sling for me, which I can't get to work on anything except for my Android phone. However, I can't get it...

    DIRECTV NOW Launching in November!

    Hope they make this a basic stand-alone product. I'm not signing up for AT&T services simply to get this at $35. I'll just keep not getting live television if they go higher than that. My Cox internet is great and Straight Talk is a better deal than anything I got at AT&T for 8+ years.

    DIRECTV NOW Launching in November!

    I haven't had pay TV since early 2014. This would be a way to get me back. Let's just hope they don't try to force you into a long term contract.

    DIRECTV TO STOP CARRYING TNA WRESTLING PPV'S

    Somehow I don't picture a huge backlash like what happened when Dish Dropped AMC before Breaking Bad..

    NFL Sunday Ticket (regular or Max) without Directv TV Package

    I don't think user speed is the issue. I had PS3 NFLST last year and I had a number of connection issues. Nothing to where I wanted to demand a refund, but it would at times get down to like RealVideo levels of quality, and some feeds would take more time than adequate to buffer. I have a 25mb...

    DIRECTV Applauds Time Warner Cable For Fighting Back In Dispute with CBS

    Personally I think it's a big d*ck waving convention with the customers caught in the middle. I find it hard to sympathize with two billion dollar corporations, when the bottom line is that neither would go out of business if the other got what the other was asking for. I'm just glad I don't...

    RUMOR ALERT! NEW DIRECTV HD COMING!

    Why not? Besides, it's another channel D* can add to their list of HD channels they have that E* doesn't.

    NFL ST Blackout Fail

    Oh I'm sorry... we shouldn't really talk trash since the Packers beat the Niners last... OH WAIT THEY DIDN'T! Well, to be fair, your Packers got further in the playoffs than the Niners did last year... OH WAIT THEY DIDN'T! And BTW, your QB's ego should stop writing checks his body can't...

    NFL ST Blackout Fail

    At least this week blackouts won't be an issue, as the Niners get to play on Sunday Night in their home opener against the Lions. Let's hope the coach of Detroit doesn't throw a pansy sissy fit and try to attack the Niners coach like he did in the last game.

    NFL ST Blackout Fail

    That's odd.. we're in similar markets (I'm in CT) but they wouldn't let me switch over due to blackout rules. To be fair I use NFL ST on the PS3 so my situation is slightly different, but still, as a diehard Niners fan my friend and I were ready to shoot the television. All I know is that if...

    NFL ST Blackout Fail

    I ran into this EXACT issue on Sunday as well. My friend and I were furious. If it had been local coverage I would have understood staying with the game, but for delaying the game of the week like that was inexcusable.

    Finding contract date online?

    I don't know if they have that. I'm pretty sure they didn't when I was member (which was from 2007-2011.) I think they force you to call them to find out unless they've upgraded their online services.

    Fee to cancel protection plan?

    I didn't get fined for cancelling mine, but I had it for quite a while before cancelling. Still I don't see why you should be fined if you never used it. Great corporate logic.

    DIRECTV Files Complaint with FCC Questioning Control of Tribune Broadcasting Company During Bankrupt

    Oh boy! Another corporate p*ssing match where everyone wins except the consumer! I still like the blurb about this on the homepage.. "The FCC has filed a complaint with the FCC over the ongoing Tribune dispute"

    Installing dish anywhere but roof..

    Final update on this. So the install was scheduled for today. The guy came out (actually arrived nearly an hour early) and said he wasn't sure where he could put the dish. After a bunch of walking around we determined that it was basically impossible to install it on the actual building...

    Installing dish anywhere but roof..

    Update: I talked to the landlord (AKA my Dad) and he informed me that the problems on the roof were isolated to only the flat roof above the entrance way, meaning that he has no issue with me doing a regular roof install anywhere BUT there. I think I am going to go that route as a result. Thanks...

    If I could make a suggestion, can you make the image an attachment as opposed to embedded within the post? It's rather hard to read as-is.

    Installing dish anywhere but roof..

    Just got off the phone with D*. They said I'd probably be looking at a $50 - $65 install fee because it is a "custom" installation. I'm looking at an install date of December 30th. Anyone have any ideas as of how to reduce the costs of this? The CSR suggested using my own pole (low class phallus...

    Installing dish anywhere but roof..

    About how much extra do we think it will cost for this sort of installation that isn't done on a roof or wall?

    Installing dish anywhere but roof..

    As I seem to do every 4th quarter of the year, I am planning on moving once again, and since the cable company where I'll be moving to (Raoul, you can attest to this) is crap, it looks like the big old 5-lnb will be coming as well. The problem is that the building I'm moving into, an old 19th...

    Cheapest way to get MRV?

    The only thing I'd say about that is that there's a lot of CSRs who simply don't know that you can do this without the DECA. You might just go in a circle trying to get what you want but trying it with the wrong person. YMMV, but like I said, try getting a hold of technical support and just say...

    Cheapest way to get MRV?

    Well, 35 minutes and 3 CSRs later, I finally got MRV to be ACTIVATED on my account. For future reference, call technical support rather than the number they tell you to dial online and on the DVR. Anyways I hooked it up like this: DSL Modem/Router -> Switch (WRT54G converted to switch) -> 2...
