Will Netflix ever work on Joey

[uptownvideo]

It is great that Netflix works on the Hopper, but will Netflix ever work on Joey?

 

[darrengs]

Yes, it showed up on my Joey over the weekend.

It's enabled for Joeys on the latest software release. Not everyone has it yet though and there's no way to get the s/w until Dish pushes it to your boxes.

Do I have to plug it in to the ethernet or does it get Netflix over the Moca cable?

 

[Hall]

If it's not showing up, you don't have the latest software. How it's connected doesn't matter.

It would over your MOCA but you need to have bridging enabled, like you need for Pandora, I believe.

Thanks for you help. Where is the setting to bridging enabled?

 

[TroubleshooterMike]

Menu, settings, network setup, broadband, network details, and bridging.

Just to confirm, do I find those settings on the Hopper or the Joey? Thanks

Hopper

And, it has to be a Hopper with Sling, the H2000 doesn't have Netflix....

They neglected to say it was for just HWSs.

They neglected to say it was for just HWSs.

And, they state that you need a wireless joey, OOPS.

Engadget is usually so much better than that.

To the average person, including Dish customers, a Hopper is a Hopper. I'll bet you many who have a Hopper know nothing about the Hopper w/Sling model and vis-versa.

Engadget is usually so much better than that.

And if anyone did not read past the headline, it sounded like ALL dish boxes.
