I have had then H3 and 4k Joeys now for a few month and continue to have the same issue on the Joeys that I had from Day 1.
The H3 is connected to the Lan via Ethernet.
H3 obtains an IP on Ethernet then H3 obtains an IP on MoCa (The same address, two interfaces should never have the same IP)
H3 enables the MoCa Network
4k Joeys (2) obtain an IP from the lan
H3 has no issue what so ever accessing internet
4K Joeys say connected to router but not to internet
From Lan I can ping address of H3 and 4K Joeys with no packet loss
Anything requiring internet access from either of the 4K Joeys fails saying internet connection required check network setup.
I have reported this issue to Dish on multiple occasions. Three of the times they have said a detailed report would be created and sent to engineering as this is a known issue and they are forwarding all details to engineering.
On one occasion they sent a Tech out. The tech was not sure what he was to do as this was not an issue where the H3 just needed to be connected to the internet (it already was) and based on what explained to him and what he observed this was either a hardware or software issue. I explained to him that, this is exactly what I had tried to explain to the phone rep and that it was not an issue that the tech would be able to solve, but the phone rep insisted on rolling a tech.
I have not reported this same issue today and once again was told that a report would be sent off to engineering. I calmly explained that I am well aware that this is a software issue and that when I upgraded to H3 I was aware that I would have to expect and deal with some glitches being an early adopter of new tech. I then explained that this is a few months in and I'm still unable to take full advantage of all the features of the 4K Joeys. Was he aware of any expected time to repair, and was Dish offering any type of compensation for patiently waiting months for a resolution to a 0 day issue that has limited functionality? The tech said at this time he was aware that this is an issue that has been reported. That he was unaware of any time frame to fix. His final comment was he was sure that once this was resolved Dish would issue some form of compensation.
Reading between the lines of that conversation leads me to believe what he was truly saying was I don't know if they are working on this or if and when it will be resolved and your guess is as good as mine if you'll see any sort of credit for your trouble.
I really like Dish's service, which is why I have been with them for years, but I'm really starting to get very frustrated. Am I alone with this issue or are there others here seeing the same thing? Anyone had any luck getting it resolved? Any DIRT member have any further insight on the issue or have a working relationship with the software engineers? Networking is my livelyhood and I'm more than wiling to work with or convey more detailed information to anyone at DISH who works with their network stack.
Thanks in advance for any and all help
