If this is a matter of privacy, not wanting anyone else to see the contents of your DVR and its recordings, then if you want it to be impossible for others to see or access your Hopper 3, then you MUST have Dish/tech install an isolator. The tech should have some in his truck and there should be no extra charge, but tell him BEFORE he does the install work. The Isolator prevents two Hoppers of any kind from seeing each other, most often used for matters of privacy like the parents don't want the kids to see any of the "Adult content" mom and dad use to spice up the marriage 
.
However, if your concern is that your parents might somehow mess up your Hopper 3, then I would NOT have an isolator installed because the Joeys are PAIRED to a particular--ONE--DVR only and, it is impossible for them to mess with your timers, or otherwise access any of your settings, etc. Further, the process to see the other H3 and view the content requires additional steps that most people just have no clue how to do. No guests I've had who have even stayed multiple weeks have no clue there is another DVR to "see" nor how to achieve this. All they look at is the recordings that show in the DVR screen and watch Live TV. That's all they care to do.
In my case, I've nothing to hide from dear old mom (yeah, I'm that boring!), but I wanted our Hopper 3's to have the ability to see each other because sometimes there are shows dear old mom has recorded that I find out later, I want to see, and I have occasional recordings that either she wants to see our we watch together. Also, if I am in the Living Room where mom's H3 is located and I doing things in the Living Room, I have watched MY H3 recordings through her H3, and I don't want to lose that ability. Those points of flexibility are important to me, as well as being able to PAIR any of my Joeys to HER H3 if MY H3 DVR dies and has to be replaced, so I don't miss my shows, in the RMA meantime. And NO, dear old mom has NO CLUE how to access the other (my) H3 even if she were offered a million dollars. You'll find most people don't know how to access the other Hopper. The kids can figure it out, but parents of a certain age? NEVER!
Tell us how it all goes with the install, and if you want/get an Isolator installed.

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?

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....

To each there own but I've found that Windows can't do much more than Linux can. Can't have everything.
For niche use cases, yes I agree. Kali for ethical hacking and security testing, and running a Cacti server for network monitoring are the two things I have experience in. Plus thousands and thousands of other things, but for every day use I just can't see it. The owner of the GMRS repeater that I pay to access is changing the Tx DPL tones tomorrow, while Chirp is available on Linux, the software to program my MXT500 is not.To each there own but I've found that Windows can't do much more than Linux can. Can't have everything.
I run Fedora and Ubuntu in VMWare, honestly I don't care much for the UI of either of them and I don't feel like spending days/weeks to customize the UI to make it look Windows-like when I could just use Windows. The cartoonish dock at the bottom of the screen reminds me of Apple products.
Actually it looks like there are a lot of features new or updated, although most are on a gradual rollout schedule.

It's dead, they just don't know it yet. They killed it by forcing DRM on it, and that TOTALLY botched implementing it.
There is absolutely NO compelling reason for anybody to switch to ATSC3.0. They only want it as a total and complete money grab.

It states the average amount they are under water is OVER $7,000. 
Personally, I tend to be the type that drives a vehicle for a lot of years....do my own oil changes and other fluid changes. Just replaced the spark plugs and a couple coils. Youtube is great for things like this.
