Switching to Hopper & Joey from 722...questions

[KenSoren]

That's what I do when I need a Joey somewhere else for awhile. Works just fine, so does an Ethernet cable.

Did you need to make any Hopper adjustments? I remember something about "bridging" but not sure since that was years back.
I guess no one knows if this will work with the Joey 2 and Hopper 3 - just need to chill out and wait.

Nope, just works.

Also. I read that the Hopper 3 will come out soon, so I wonder if I should wait a bit for it to come out.

Yes, you definitely want to wait for the Hopper 3.

Yes, you definitely want to wait for the Hopper 3.

Is there an estimated date for it? I think that I saw a post in this forum stating a new date of 1Q17.

There have been a couple dates mentioned but it's been pushed back each time. As of now it's been said that they should ship out tomorrow and possibly available for installs on Monday. There still hasn't been any official launch date announced by Dish though. Still waiting.
