Hello, Thanks for your suggestion. I disconnected the antenna, but still no response from the IR remote. It won't even respond to the IR remote that came with my 522. And this is the remote that I originally used to teach my universal with. I am going to try the Teach Remote function that...

Hi, Actually I initially had trouble getting my 811 to work at all with my universal (MX500) remote. After I learned the codes from a IR remote for an older 301, the 811 responded perfectly to my universal. Today, a couple of hours ago, it stopped responding to my universal. It responds...

Hi all, When I turned on my 811 this morning, there was a message on the screen saying that there was a free software upgrade available, and asking if I wanted to download the update. I hit Yes or Okay or whatever it was to confirm, and the 811 turned itself off. I turned it back on and...

Update; 811works with IR remotes!! I finally got thr remote address reset to 1. Then I tried the IR remote that comes with the 522 and it works fine with the 811. This after talking to a CSR in Dish's "advanced" tech support, who emphatically stated, the 811 is NOT IR controllable. So...

The installer set it to address 10. Does the receiver have to be turned off before resetting the remote address? I tried to reset it to 1 using the procedure in the manual but to no avail. System Info still shows 10. Thanks for your help, Bobo...:)

Hello everyone! I am a newbie here, though I have been lurking and reading since I became a new Dish 811 owner. I have an 811 and am trying to set it up with my ReplayTV 5040 so I can timeshift some shows. Also I have called Dish three times and they are no help. I want to know if...

Thanks Richard!! I appreciate your help. I may take you up on your offer but it will be at a more appropriate time. BTW, I called D* tech support and they told me flatly that taking two feeds from the 500 and one from the 300 would NOT work. I don't see a reason why it shouldn't, but the...

Hello all, This is my first post here. I hope to get some help here, as the manual for the 811 is no help. I have a Dish Pro dish with the Quad LNBF and an older Dish 300 with the single output. I want to use the Dish 300 to pick up some of the international programming on the 61.5 bird...
