Hello everyone
I will be doing a hopper 3 install along with a 4k joey. i am wondering if there's anything else that i would need to do the install.
i have the boxes the hopper 3 and the 4k joey
the dish with the hybrid lnb
and the solo node
i am thinking that two cable go into the node from the dish and one goes the the joey and the other goes into the hopper if i am correct

Just to be sure, you need a solo hybrid hub, not a solo node. They are different devices.

That’s the one. You will need one coax from the dish to the hub. It goes to ODU on the hub. One coax from Host to the Hopper 3. One coax from Client to the Joey.

ODU is the connection on the hub. The coax goes from from ODU on the hub to the dish.

i am wondering he ran his credit and they just want a month upfront no problem for him. now can he use the hopper 3 and 4k joey that he bought and owns outright and just toss a walley on the acct to get all of the deals and i guess he would just put the wally in the closet or is that gonna cause more friction lol
