Here's the current production software for the receivers in question. HWS: S5.23 H2K: S6.08 Wired Joeys: S4.85, S3.94.
Okay they are up to date,
My other question Chris is the Joey that has s394 is still very slow and laggy, why doesn't it have the s485? Like my other Joey that's fast and responsive
Do I need a new Joey?
Both have been hooked to the Hopper with sling for about 2 weeks now.

Maybe the s/w version on the Joey is based on the type of Hopper, H2K vs Hopper w/Sling.
I could check if my Joey has the same version as thomasjk as we both have Hoppers w/Sling and hopefully someone with a H2K can indicate their Joey's s/w version.
You mean , Settings, Diagnostics, System status?
Or Common Counters in the Test section of Network settings?

Did you get both of your Joeys at the same time? I wonder if Troch might have managed to get one of the newer regular Joeys that came out a while back with the faster processor, and one of the original Joeys. (I don't believe anyone ever found a way to distinguish between them, as Dish didn't give the improved Joey a new model number or anything). I know that I've never used "Fast" or "Responsive" to describe my original regular Joey, regardless of software version.
If you do, then we all do. They all got sluggish a year or so ago. Maybe if there is a new SW rolling out, the response will improve.
Yes they both were installed together, both were new in box.
The one with s485 works just like the Hoppers as far as performance goes. Always has since day one.
The other one , is slow with channel changes, menu selections, guide navigation, and the Search functions are worst I've ever used. The response is so slow , that it skips letters sometimes, where it's almost impossible to type a Search in.
It reminds of a First generation out of the box Directv HR20 700 . Back in 2006.
Says Available Joey software, W105, S394, S485, S579
Hopper 2000 says the same Available.
Just a guess, but if that is a Joey 1.0, that may be the highest software it will get currently. Honestly, nothing to go off of here, so just my opinion and open to being wrong.
You have two Joeys with different software versions? If so, is the one that's connected to the original Hopper the one with S485?
if i travel, do i need a special dish to get coverage with my vip211 receiver?
