Problems w/ 722k TV2 UHF Remote

[Dish416]

My TV2 UHF remotes (6.2 and 21.0) worked for years without trouble in my far away bedrooms, but for some reason over the past few weeks they will only function when I bring the remotes within a few feet of the receiver. I can't figure out what the problem is. I tried using several different remote addresses but the problem persists. Any idea what it can be?

- Are the 2 UHF remotes conflicting with eachother?
- Does it have something to do with UHF Pro Band A vs B? Does my 722k and both my remotes work with both bands?

Help is appreciated.

Likely there is just interference. Did you add a wireless router, or game system or anything like that at all in the house?

Attach a piece of coax between the antenna and the back of the 722 and move it away from the receiver. Worked for me.

Yep.
