    Dish Spam

    "Unless you've actually responded to the spam emails that you're receiving, you do not know for sure if the Dish spam is even from a legitimate company... so how can Dish be held even slightly responsible..? Most Spam is really just an attempt at email and personal information harvesting... with...

    Dish Spam

    Yea I never used to get any spam until family and friends got hacked so that all of the email addresses in their contacts were "stolen" so now they have a list of real people to spam. These emails make their way to lists that are shared or even sold. I have several other "junk" email addresses...

    Dish Spam

    I am constantly getting spammed by independent satellite installation companies selling Dish subscriptions. I try to filter them out but they just use new email addresses. I know it's not coming directly from Dish, but these companies represent Dish IMO in a bad light by spamming customers. At...

    Any Way To Add External Storage to X1 ?

    Oh the other thing I miss is the skip forward button on my Dish remotes. The FF is annoying and takes forever, the page UP button skips too far ahead so I have to skip back about 7 times or so. Am I missing another way to skip forward?

    Any Way To Add External Storage to X1 ?

    Me too. I think the X1's UI and features are fantastic. I thought the voice search would be a waste but I use it all the time. I also subscribed to their Home security system which I also think is great.

    Any Way To Add External Storage to X1 ?

    Thanks Bruce, I'll see if I can change how I view some of my shows, but it seems whenever I use VOD there are commercials that I can't skip over. I thought they were going to have "Cloud Recording" so you don't even need to have local recordings? Maybe that was another cable company.

    Any Way To Add External Storage to X1 ?

    Just switched to Comcast from Dish and so far I absolutely love it. The only problem is that the HD fills up pretty quickly. Any way to expand storage?

    Thanks! So at each remote TV you need either the xi3 or RNG150?

    X-1 Questions

    I'll be going from Dish to Comcast when we move and I have a few questions: Is there an OTA tuner ? Can you combine 2 together so all TV's share the tuners/DVR's? How much more do they charge for the second X-1? Do they charge a fee for each of the client boxes? Can you watch live TV on an iPad...

    Going from Dish to Comcast

    So if the X1 is sitting in my equipment closet, and I have RG6 run to each TV, is there also a box at each TV to convert the signal to HDMI, or does the cable just connect to the TV's antenna input as you would connect an OTA antenna? And then does each TV location or person have their own set...

    Going from Dish to Comcast

    Going from Dish to Comcast

    We will be moving next year to a development that doesn't allow sat dishes so I will be switching to Comcast. The house is being built so I can have it wired to accommodate whatever is needed for cable. We will have at most 6 TV's one of which is a home theater, with 3 of us living in the home...

    Some Channels Dropping Out

    I have a DPP44 switch, 1000.4 dish, looking at 61.5/72 & 77 sats. It's definitely my locals that keep dropping out but also a few other channels like CNBC.

    Some Channels Dropping Out

    I'm in NY and I have all 722k's and lately some of the channels are pixillating and dropping out . How do I figure out what is causing this and how to fix ?

    Dish Blocked With Snow, How to get to OTA on 722

    Ahhhh that explains why I was getting OTA channels were working yesterday but not today since they reboot overnight. Thanks, at least I know I wasn't imagining that it did work even when the sat signal is lost.

    Dish Blocked With Snow, How to get to OTA on 722

    I'm handicapped so I can't get up on the roof. I have a fairly complicated set-up: all 4 receivers in a utility closet and distributed out to 8 TV's modulated on different channels , so I don't want to start changing the wiring and how the modulators are set on each of the TV's etc. It's warming...

    Dish Blocked With Snow, How to get to OTA on 722

    Exactly. And I tried that KAB, thanks. The guide won't come up at all I think because it does get that info from the sats. I have 4 722k receivers, all have OTA modules, all hooked up to antenna for years. I've always been able to get the OTA channels during rain fade or blockage but now I...

    Watch 722 DVR on a Distant TV?

    I think hers is an iPad2, it definitely has a 30pin connector. It may actually be easiest and cheapest to just buy her an inexpensive Android tablet dedicated just to the TV. In general I wish they made it easier to stream the programming we pay for to a TV. I do understand their reluctance...
