Hello all, well I don't know if I am in the right aread to look for help but if I am not maybe someone can direct me. here is my story. I have been a Dish subscriber for years and 3 weeks ago we decided to upgrade to the Hopper with sling. so we got 2 receivers and 2 joey's. The first installer installed one receiver upstairs with a joey and one receiver downstairs with a joey. The receiver upstairs is working fine no problems. The receiver downstairs has been nothing but a pain in the ass. The problem is that the primetime anytime cannot be disabled. I follow the instructions word for word and it doesn't work. So it begins recording dozens of shows that nobody even set timers to, sports, ect. every morning I had to go through and delete all that crap. Also it would constantly interrupt what we are watching at the time to record at stuff that nobody wants to record. it would happen 5-9 times a night. So after a few days of trying to figure out the problem, I call to have installer # 2 to come and take a look. He basically rewires the entire connection. then leaves. the next day the same crap starts up again. OK now I am talking to Dish, they send another receiver to replace the one down stairs, remember the 2nd receiver upstairs is going fine. The second receiver arrives. I plug it in and set it u0p as instructions say to. I even called dish to register the new receiver. the next day, the same crap again, I am around ready to personally rip the entire system out of the house. I contact Dish, tell them the situation, they asked when I set up the new receiver did I transfer the old setting from the first receiver to the new. I did , there is the problem.. OK great, so lets just reset the replacement receiver to factory defaults, I will go through and set up my timers again, no problem...here is the problem with dish on the phone they take me step by step to go to factor defaults, the problem is it will not.. Ok at this point they are tell me that its a software issue and they are working on it.. after hanging up I was thinking, if its a software issue why isn't the receiver upstairs messing up, so the sofeware issue is bull. I am about ready to get a hold of dish and get another receiver to replace the replacement and this time when they ask if I want to transfer my original settings I will say no.....unless there is anyone here who has experienced the same problem with that stupid prime time anytime, and can tell me how to disable it so it WILL NOT record anything. Please let me know. thank you
