I just got the Hopper (1st gen) a few months ago. I know some people who just upgraded, and got the Hopper with Sling for free. I want the HWS free as well. I called Dish. They want $200. I tried online chat. They also want $200. I thought I'd plead my case here.

I was a Dish customer for 10 years, and was lulled to cable for a few months because Dish couldn't get a signal where I live in the woods. After realizing that cable was horrible, I called Dish and they sent a competent technician who got a strong signal and set me up with the Hopper.

I have little kids and would love Dish Anywhere for them while on the road. Anyone here have any luck getting the HWS for free? It shouldn't cost Dish a thing, they could just give my 1st gen Hopper to someone who doesn't want Sling.

they can just provide you with a sling adapter no need to switch the box out - as for a competent tech, you likely got one that pushed the system in without full 5 degree clearance as required but as long as you will take care of future tree growth then that won't be a big deal.

If you return a receiver it has to be processed, cleaned and refurbished which isn't cheap and does cost Dish. They will likely have to charge you for the adapter too as they are not cheap either - you can get them on amazon for around $60 just fyi.

Got my Hopper and Joey installed today thanks to Mary B. from the Dish Team. Loving it so far.

OK, so I have a 5 month old Hopper in the living room and a Joey in the bedroom that was installed at the same time. I'd like to add a HWS if possible to use in place of the Joey, which I would save for football season (we run two tv's). I figure once I clear my 4 weeks of crappola off the living room Hopper, Ill swap it to the bedroom with the new Hopper since its faster. Make it the hub in the living room.

Can someone give me a shout to see what my cost is?

Thanks.

 

[gadgtfreek]

Thanks to MattG, got an answer with quote in little over an hour. Now I just gotta decide whether to get the HWS

 

[gadgtfreek]

Well, MattG got me squared away. Hopper with Sling set to install Friday 3/29 from 8-12. Gonna be sweet having 2 hoppers with 2 OTA tuners.

Requesting a DIRT member contact me about upgrade to Hopper with Sling from 722k. Thanks.

UPDATE - I have been contacted, thank you!

I am interested in upgrading my VIP722k and VIP211K to either a:

1. HWS w/ 1 Joey and an additional hopper w/ 1 Joey, or
2. 2 HWS w/ 2 Joeys, or
3. 1 HWS and 3 Joeys.

Could a DIRT member please contact me so we can discuss the different options?

Thanks,

Kevin

DITTO! - My almost year old Hopper (w/slingbox) has had slow channel changes since one of the early software updates crippled it. Tried all the standard suggestions without success. An upgrade to a new HwS would likely resolve this issue. Thank you.

"Helped/Contacted." thanks!

Hi, Mary B. Thought we could start a new PM thread. Not sure I'm ready, but I'd like to get quotes for both 1 hopper w/2 joeys, and for 2 hoppers /1 joey, plus monthly cost with 200 programming. I won't be looking for an answer tonight, so please take your time.

Thanks!

Could a DIRT member contact me concerning upgrade options.

I am interested in an upgrade from 1 622 & 1 612 to one of the following, depending on cost and availabilty:

2 HWS & 1Joey
2 HWS & 2 Joey's
1 Hopper and 1 HWS with 1 Joey
1 Hopper and 1 HWS with 2 Joey's

I have the protection plan if that makes any difference.

Thanks,
