I have been a long time Dishnetworks customer, over 10 years, and have always done my own instalation.
My 921 was starting to exhibit the bugs that warrented a replacement, so I called Dish and they sent out a 622 and a DP34 and a so called qualified installer, after 3 hours they left and the reciever never worked as it should, the 311 worked fine, so i planned on fixing the instal myself, assuming the equipment was OK.
The 622 worked for about 18 hours before it just stopped, a check switch would not detect the installed 34 switch and I was limited to OTA Hd channels.
Another installer came out and replaced the 34 switch and it worked for another 18 hours.
In my last call to Dish they sent out a DPP44 and assured me this would fix the problem, the installer arrived and by this time I had fixed the previous attempts at instalation, found out the 34 switch was not connected correctly, hard to believe huh!
Installed the DPP44 and did the check switch and the 622 never would pass testing 1 of 1, on either tuner, the attached 301 checked fine.
Tried 3 different 44 switches and none of them worked on the 622.
Are there any known conflicts with the 622 and the DPP44 when there was a previous 34 switch installed?
Or any suggestions from any of the trained professionals on this board?
The system is working with a known good 34 switch, so maybe I should leave well enough alone.
Help!
Thanks
