I'm a new E* subscriber (just swithed from D*), have a Vip722 and a Vip 222. I thought I remembered seeing that for a while dish had the ability to control the DVR remotely over the internet via the broadband connection. Has that feature been scrapped, or just still under devolopment? I also read that people are having problems with DishOnline function on the 722, the receiver locks up when selecting DishOnline? Has this function worked in the past and stopped with recent software updates? Any idea when it is to return?
Is it worth hooking my Vip222 to a broadband conneciton. What functionality will I gain?
I have also seen mention of folks who 'beta test' new software for Dish. How does one enroll in that program. I am very computer savvy and work in the electronics field (public safety wireless communications) so I have a good understanding of networking, computers and electronics in general.
Thanks
Rick
