Switching from Reg Hopper to Sling / Recordings

Still does me no good, need Windows

Only works android or Apple phone or tablets for the transfer feature. The viewing should work on windows computers, I don't beleive it will work on windows phones or tablets.

Well I will play around with it once my receiver shows up on dishanywhere. I know there are some programs to run Android apps on Windows 8, might have to see if they work.

I stand corrected, but I find that to be inaccurate or confusing at best. Example, my Hopper is only showing 381 GB free of 1.2 T. But, my recordings says drive is only 47% used=564 GB. I would be inclined to trust the latter.

Remember the drive makers use powers of 1000 while Dish uses powers of 1024 for the same label. This makes a 2.4% difference for MB, more than 4.8% for GB, and more than 7.2% for TB.

Well it has been 36 hours and still not on Dish Anywhere, guess if it doesn't show up by tomorrow I will have to start calling.

Have you signed out of Dish Anywhere and signed back in?

 

[mopar_mudder]

Yes I have. Plus I have clear Cache and cookies and tried on multiple computers.

Also try starting DA from http://www.mydish.com/

Same Results.....

I just installed Bluestacks which is an Android emulator program on my computer. Installed the Dish App and can get into my Hopper just fine on that, still doesn't work through the dishanywhere web site though.

On the new HWS did you go into Menu/Settings/Network Set uo/Broadband and set up your network,

 

[ChadT41]

There was a known issue like this not very long ago. May still be an active issue. Try pming a dirt member.

 

[dwarren2]

The OP never did say if he set up the broadband network on the new HWS. If that is the case, no wonder he's not seeing the HWS in DA.

 

[mopar_mudder]

Did you read the post 3 up where I said that the Android App works, and earlier where I said it is getting an IP address and I can ping it........Yes the internet is working.

 

[dwarren2]

Is the computer connected via ethernet or wifi? Sounds like some misconfiguration.

Just wanted to update that is has been over a week now and I still can't get into Dishanywhere. Dish is aware of the issue and suppose to be looking into it but doesn't seem anything is happening.

New update, over 2 weeks now and still no Dishanywhere. Been getting in the run around on they chat support so I called last night. Got help on the line and the first thing she ask is if their is a network line hooked to the Hopper, if only I could reach through the phone! After going through all the steps with her to prove it is not a network problem she finally passes me up a level in support. Get this guy on the phone and in less then 30 seconds he knows exactly what I am talking about and says it is a know problem and their is going to be a fix on Dec 3rd....... Now why can't they get this info to the flunky people that answer the phone and do the chat so they know what is going on. So I will wait until Dec 3rd and see if he was just feeding me a line, wish I would have remembered to ask why my Joey is so slow now.
