I have the VIP 622 DVR and I have had problems with it ever since I got it. The first one I had lasted about 2 months before it died on me. I had dish come out and give me a new one. This one I have had for about 6 months and have had some of the same problems I had with the first. Ever month or two all of a sudden it won't get satellite signal. I call Dish and they run through a couple of drill. What fixed it was switching the connections between the 1st input and the 2nd input of my receiver. Then same problem called dish and was on the phone about 10 minutes just to tell me they can come out for $50.00 and fix my connection. I thought lets see if the input thing works again. Switch them and it worked. Does anyone know why this happens? I NEVER TOUCH my connections or receiver so I don't mess anything up and it still happens. Why?
