Does a DISH 21.1 IR/UHF Pro Remote (used for TV2 on a VIP722K) work with a Hopper 3 and/or Joey 2?

Thanks in advance.

yes but only when set to address 1 in IR mode, with IR enabled on the receiver.

Can I use it as an IR Remote from an adjacent room set to Address 1?

IR doesn't go through walls but it might bounce off them if you are lucky.

If you don't already have the 21, a 40 would be a better choice.

I misspoke.

Can I use it as an RF Remote from an adjacent room set to Address 1?

If the answer is yes, and since I own several 21.1 UHF Pro Remotes, will the ones I have perform all the same functions as a 40 Remote in by UHF in the same room or from an adjacent room through walls?

No. Different UHF frequency and/or protocol, not compatible.
