Not sure since the Hopper doesn't display it...

That implies that the H3 does indeed show you the download bandwidth from somewhere or other. How do you get it to show that?

From Diagnostic menu select Status, Send Status, then Test Connections.

Yep! That's it

Don't tell me; let me guess. This has to be from the H3 and not a Joey, and you have to Send Status first, before testing the connection. Makes sense... Not!

Yes this is from the H3 and yes you have to click on Send Status.

How do you ever figure out these things?

I learn from reading SatGuys forums.

It wouldn't work on the Joey because the Joey is a client, connected to the Hopper. The Hopper is the Borg and the Joey is just a piece of the collective

Does that mean 7 of 9 lives in my bedroom!

You wish.

Who doesn't!

I know you're just the messenger, but THIS SUCKS. Yes, I understand that everything is happening from the Hopper. I don't care. The Joey has almost the same interface; they could just enable those parts that the Hopper uses to do these things (scan OTA locals, test bandwidth, etc.) and tell the Hopper to do it. They probably had to bend over backwards to remove those features from the Joey menu.

Actually, I've thought that before. You can run a check switch from TV2 on a VIP Dual Tuner, why not on a Joey?

Because the Joey is very simplistic, it has no computing power.

 

[NYDutch]

Wouldn't running those functions from a Joey screw up the Hopper viewing for others?

I was referring to letting it command the Hopper to do the tests, not doing the tests on the Joey itself. Though I'd bet a Joey3 has adequate horsepower to do the bandwidth test itself.

I think there is dedicated bandwidth on the MoCA link, so this test over Ethernet should not interfere.

Well, I’m just continuing to get 2009 as the error message on both Safari and Chrome.

Me too on Chrome. I don't do Safari.

If I use a VPN it works sometimes.

I’m sure she does, now and then.
