211

Is the 211 remote only ir or can it be rf

 

[ZachS@DISH]

The 211 is IR only but you can get an IR/UHF converter that would work with a 10.0 UHF remote.

Could you elaborate please? What exactly would one need and where would one get it? Thanks.

The IR-to-UHF Pro Upgrade Kit enables an ultra-high frequency (UHF) remote to control an infrared (IR) DISH satellite TV receiver from much farther away than with an IR remote control, even through walls that block IR signals. You can order through an agent for $10. If you'd like to order one please PM me your account information.

Only $10? I had to pay $39 for mine and and additional $25 for the extra remote.

Can the 211k use the DISH USB WI-FI Adaptor?.

The 211k will not work with the WiFi Adapter. The Adapter will only work with the VIP 922, 722k, 722, 622, 612, and 222k.

Thank you ZachS for your quick response and answer.

Thanks for the explanation. So, I would need the UHF upgrade kit and the remote upgrade.
