If you are having trouble...

First let me say I was checking with both tuners, all evening since I got home and all worked as stated above except for 9300. However in the last 10 minutes it has started working also. Looks to be NFL channel.

Opposite for me... everything had been working fine, including 9300, until recently, now I'm getting 721 error.

If it is NFL, I should have it (Plus HD package).

 

[ONUOsFan]

Guys you need to check with BOTH turners.

OK, stupid question... how do I verify that I'm checking both tuners?

Do you have premier or sports package? What they are showing appears to be NHL network. There's a big NHL logo in the bottom right corner of the screen. However, they are using content from the NFL Network since NHL Network doesn't exist yet. I'd suspect that the NHL Network will be a sports package channel so unless you subscribe to it you won't get it on the test channel. Maybe D* is testing channels from the various packages to make sure that they billing/authorization system is working correctly.

I'm getting both 9300 and 9301 and I haven't had any problems with no matter they've shown on 9300. However, I have the premier package so I should get whatever they put on the test channels.
