Only July 4th​,2012 I trouble shot a loss of internet problem and found that my hopper was crashing out my internet connection. I had the hopper installed in the beginning of June and it was running fine. Starting about July 3rd​ I was getting complaints from my family that they were losing the internet. On the night of July 3rd​, the Joey lost it's connection to the hopper and I had to reset the both units. After trouble shooting with the internet provider I was able to narrow down what was causing the lost of the internet. When I unplug the hopper, the internet came back up and work fine. I called tech support at dish and was sent to the advance tech support( I had a bad experience with the first tech I talked to, but that is another story) they were unable to help. I had to reboot the system at least twice. I was told to do a follow up a follow hours later and I ended up in the broad band division to log my information down. They were not able to help too. I was told to plug it in when I was not using the internet maybe to finish a download but after a night and morning, the hopper again crashed out the network and I was back to the same problem

I have had the system unplugged for now 11 days. Can anyone help?

Network set up
Hopper- netgear switch- DSL modem/hub
My internet is through my phone provider, I have no cable TV.
I have reset my modem and powered off my switch.

Update:
I did the disabling the bridge fix an hour ago and my TX packets 360 and RX packets 1092. That was a major drop and the network has been stable and not knocking people off. Time will tell.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Finished season 3 last night. Still one of my favorite shows.

Anyone else wonder if there might be something else going on with Callum? Seems to me he has too much access to Russian intelligence.

Great ending, but it ran in circles most of the season.

Over the past few weeks, I have had problems connecting to streaming services (Netflix, HBO et al). When I go to the TV's native Channels, I have no problem. The Dish internet troubleshooter shows I have a good internet connection. I'm wondering whether it's an issue with my internet provider or a problem with the Dish software on the Hopper Plus. Anyone else seeing this?

I have a DISH Hopper 3 (Software H713) with Hopper Plus (Software P15403). I have not tried streaming services but I primarily watch TVB Jadeworld international package which is only available by streaming and when I have an issue, I usually have to go to a non-streaming satellite channel first before the streaming channels will work again. What software versions do you have and what is the error message if any are showing on your screen? or is that Dish downloading logo just stuck and never finishes?

I'm on H713 on the Hopper and P15403 on the Hopper Plus. It shows internet connection issues and doesn't finish loading the various services. I see the "loading circle going around. Sometimes I get a message saying that the service is having trouble loading my content and to check the internet connection.

Did it ever work correctly before? Hard to say what the problem is. Usually for streaming, it will show the Dish logo with lines sweeping down to show downloading, never seen the circle issue. Did you try a manual reboot, red button reset, power cord unplug/replug to see if it makes a difference.

Might be worth just to ditch the hopper plus. No issues here on h713

Buy a roku and dump the hopper plus you'll be better off. If you have a smart tv you don't need either one. No hopper plus here and no issues!!!
