I was having some issues with dish anywhere, but they seem to be fixed now. I just got back from a 4 day trip to Washington DC, and I can happily report that Dish Anywhere worked perfectly. I wanted to watch preseason football, but by the time I got back to my room the game was well underway. First I tried connecting via the hotels wifi on my ipad, well that was useless as the bandwidth just sucked. So I connected via my iPhone 5, and went to my hoppers primetime live and proceeded to watch the game. Then on our way home my son used it all the way to watch TV in the car. Dish's technology like the hopper, sling, etc is what stops me from going back to D*
