    Hopper hard drive duplication for backup

    I haven't tried this on my Hopper, but on my 722 EHD it most assuredly has to be owned by root:root. I found that out the hard way by using the GUI on... I think it was Scientific Linux which is a now defunct redistribution of RHEL. In any case, the screen manager, whatever it was, was not...

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    Dish chat fixed the issue with DishAnywhere. All I needed to do was log out and re-activate and it picked up the new receiver.

    Alexa issues

    Interesting. So are you saying that ALL your Echoes at both houses announce the doorbell at either house? Only my nearest Echo Dot does that.

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    Watch remotely? Since when can you watch EHD programs remotely? I could do that in my 722/Sling Adapter days, until Dish removed that capability. But I have never seen my EHD using DishAnywhere. Of course with the new receiver, I can't even see those internal programs, but that's another issue.

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    The new receiver transferred 492 events out of 494, which difference is probably two programs I deleted before the transfer completed. Still no EHD shows up. So I did some more experimentation with the EHD's I have from my 722 and 625 days. Both show up and work with the new receiver. When I...

    Alexa issues

    I recently moved into a new house with a Ring video doorbell. I just got it set up and linked to my Alexa account. Interesting fact: when I push the doorbell button, only the nearest Echo announces "there is somebody at the front door". How does it know to use only the nearest Echo rather...

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    No idea. I am living in Manassas and my receiver is still in Fairfax. That's why I tried DishAnywhere to see how many programs had been transferred. DIshAnywhere still shows the old receiver number and gives the "Something went haywire" messge. My.Dish shows the new receiver online and with...

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    I thought I'd check on the number of "events" it has via DishAnywhere. But when I select DVR it says "Something Went Haywire. We are unable to connect to your receiver." Boo hiss. How long before DishAnywhere can connect to the "new" receiver?

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    Another update to my disappearing EHD problem: Received new(?) Hopper3 replacement. If it's not new, it's in pristine condition. Updated old receiver from 389 to 390 just to see if the EHD would make an appearance. It didn't. Saved receiver settings to 40 remote. Unplugged old H3. Moved all...

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    Huh. I couldn't see the back when I moved the cable, but I thought I plugged it into the USB3 port because I have my AirTV adapter plugged into the hub on the Seagate. Aha. I found a picture on Solid Signal:

    Hopper 3 software version 390 is out.

    Ah... What does that mean? Fewer? Blacker like HDR can give? I wish it would fix my missing EHD issue, but alas I still have 389.

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    I had a good diagnostic phone call with Dish support regarding this issue. What my tech had me do that I had not already done was plug the Seagate into the upper USB port. No change. The receiver can "see" when I unplug it, but when I plug it back in, nothing happens including the hated...

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    That also didn't work. But I did see the USB device removal pop-up. When I plugged it back in again, I saw nothing. This is looking very familiar, like my 3rd EHD from a 612 never showed up but nevertheless the receiver could see it there once removed. Back in the day, a "hit" would fix it...

    H388 - Hopper 3 - 02/19/2025

    Maybe Dish is preparing to send out widescreen SD and not that picture-framed nonsense I see on some channels such as Hallmark Family. Blech.
  15. TheKrell

    Hopper 3 software version 389

    Did that to no avail. There used to be a hit we could send to our receivers. I thought it was on DishAnywhere, but I don't see it there now. Do you remember where that was? I did find a "Wake Up Receiver" button on MyDish Equipment. Trying that now.

    Upgrade from Joey to Wireless Joey

    Does the wireless Joey 4 require an access point? I currently have a wired Joey 3 that no longer pays any attention to its Ethernet jack unless it's connected to the Hopper's 2nd port. It claims a DHCP failure.

    My EHD disappeared. Has anybody noticed that happening?

    J3 over Ethernet

    Sorry for my delay in posting this. I'm having numerous issues with my new house, including my 2X mortgage auto-pay that mysteriously got turned off. Fortunately I caught that snafu in time. Yes; that's what I tried. I didn't try the crossover cable because I couldn't find it easily. Since...

    J3 over Ethernet

    Well, that worked. The (actual regular) Ethernet cable from the upper port to my J3 resulted in it pairing just fine. So the Ethernet jack still works. But I tried the following (after unplugging the coax) with no joy whatsoever. Reset the network. Soft reset J3 Power plug reset J3 Soft...

    J3 over Ethernet

    So... You are saying that I should use a crossover cable between the Joey and the unused Ethernet jack on the Hopper? Interesting ploy. I'm trying the power plug first.

    J3 over Ethernet

    I unplugged the coax and left the Ethernet which is (through switches) able to communicate to the H3 on the same LAN. It never reconnected to the H3, despite restarting it and resetting the network numerous times. I didn't do a power plug reset, though. What am I doing wrong?

    J3 over Ethernet

    Back when I first got my H3 with 2 J3's, I experimented with one of them by unplugging the coax but leaving the Ethernet connected. After some chaos and confusion with the network settings, it worked great! Fast forward to today when I experimented again. No joy no matter what I reset. Is...

    Dishmover?

    Same question as the OP. Is this service still available? Can't find it after a concerted effort on MyDIsh.
