922 HD DVR and 301 connection help

Hello,

I have a newly installed 922K HD DVR receiver and a legacy 301 receiver (which I used to pair with a DishPVR which died on me). I have the 922 in Solo mode with mirror mode on a 2nd TV. This HD portion of the setup is working fine. I'm trying to get the 301 to work on a 3rd TV by connecting the 2nd line from the HD satellite dish (which the Dish Network installer connected when doing the installation) to the Satellite in. The 119 satellite is working fine but the 110 is not synching at all, so I can see some but not all channels on the 3rd TV. The 922 is working perfectly and when I flip the feed lines between the 301 and the 922, the 922 continues working perfectly. Is there supposed to be some other kind of connector or configuration setup to get the 301 receiver to properly synch both the 110 and 119 satellites?

Thanks in advance...

Thanks for the help Matt. It looks like I have the newer elliptical dish with the dark gray tone and the white and red Dish HD logo painted on it. There's a triple LNBF labelled DP Plus Digital LNBF with 2 RG6 lines coming out down to where my receivers are. One of the RG6 lines is going into the triplexer feeding the 922 receiver. The other RG6 line is going into the 301 receiver. No other switches between the LNBF and the RG6 lines or the receivers.

The 301 installation setup screen is showing a SW21 switch with 110 and 119 Odd, Even polarity matrix all filled out and reporting Satellite reception verified. SuperDish installed. However, there are no switches other than the triplexes going into the back of the 922 from the one RG6 line, as I noted before. There used to be a SW21 switch, with the previous dish/LNB I used to have though...

However, when I leave the diagnostics menus, I get the satellite signal lost error screens. I can go to Guide and select channel 200 and watch CNN all I want, but if I change to most other channels, I get the satellite signal lost screen right away.

Did you run a check switch test on the 301? This is in Menu > 6 > 1 > 1 > Check Switch > Test. This should update the 301 to the LNB/Dish that it is currently connected to.

Sounds like you either moved the receiver or changed the dish and never updated the receiver by running the check switch.

Fantastic! Thanks for the help MattG and garys. I obviously forgot to actually press the Test button and didn't pay enough attention.

After actually running the switch Test I get:

DPP 1K.2


119 110 129
All All All
+1k2 +1k2 +1k2
Satellite reception verified
SuperDISH

I guess I was expecting there to be some other kind of diplexer or switch to connect to make it all work, but I'm now getting all my channels and everyone is happy on the home front. Awesome forum...cannot thank everyone enough.

If and when you need to get HD to your second TV you will need to upgrade to DISH's VIP211k,which has not only an HD HDMI connection,but an SD connection and a builtin OTA tuner.The 211k can also become a DVR when hooked up to an EHD and that upgrade there is a $40. one time fee for the 211k to become a DVR if that is something you maybe interested in .Good Luck!.:)

Song Name Game Part 3!

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.

Hopper 3 with Hopper plus internet connection problems

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.

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!!!
