  1. Hopper System Support Forum
    That's what I wanted to know. I will stick with the original configuration.
  2. Hopper System Support Forum
    But what's the price difference? We're retired and don't have a lot of money to spend on something we'll hardly ever use.
  3. Hopper System Support Forum
    I'm having my basement redone to include a new home theater. During construction, I moved my Hopper 3 to the living room, and gave up a Joey, with the intention of moving it back down to the HT and restoring a Joey in the LR, when done. But now I'm wondering if it would be better to leave the...
  4. General DISH™ Discussion
    We already subscribe to HBO Max as an add-on to our Amazon Prime subscription. I'm not sure it's worthwhile to switch just to save $36 over the course of a year. Seems the only other advantage would be to have them in the EPG, but we'd still need to use a streaming device (Fire stick, Smart TV...
  5. Hopper System Support Forum
    I made another call to Dish and they sent out a tech yesterday. He told me there was an update yesterday morning (8/5) that was designed to fix this exact issue, which it seems to have done.
  6. Hopper System Support Forum
    If you read my initial post, you'd see where I said "I called DISH today, and they directed me through similar steps, but I have no confidence that will stick either."
  7. Hopper System Support Forum
    It happened again. Here is a pic of the error message on the network status screen. It doesn't go away until I reset the hopper.
  8. Hopper System Support Forum
    Just one hopper, connected via Ethernet.
  9. Hopper System Support Forum
    Reset Network doesn't seem to work while the "configuring Joeys" message is displayed. I have had to reset the box.
  10. Hopper System Support Forum
    So a few days ago, I tried to tune my hopper to Netflix, only to receive a message that there was no internet. I checked the network info page and it said it was configuring my Joeys and there would be a temporary loss of network. I tried to navigate away from the modal window, but it popped...
  11. Hopper System Support Forum
    Mine has started crashing when I try to watch Netflix. I thought AP was doing it too, but the last time I checked it worked fine. I need to check again.
  12. DISH™ OTA Support and Discussion Forum
    I don't want ONLY sat channels to record. Sometimes the game is ONLY on OTA as I live in the intersection of two markets. I want sat channels to always take priority over OTA if both are available. As it is now, it seems random. Sometimes it picks one, sometimes another. I have no idea what...
  13. DISH™ OTA Support and Discussion Forum
    It doesn't happen every week. That's the annoying part. It happens just enough that I can't count on it recording properly.
  14. DISH™ OTA Support and Discussion Forum
    So why doesn't it offer a choice when I set the timer? Why would the DISH programmers decide that OTA is more important than sat anyway? You'd think sat channels would have priority since EVERYONE with a Hopper has those, and only some have OTA.
  15. DISH™ OTA Support and Discussion Forum
    If that completely removes the channel from timer consideration then it won't record even when that is the only channel the game is on, though, right? I just want sat channels to take priority over OTA channels when there is duplication.
  16. DISH™ OTA Support and Discussion Forum
    The timer is created by search/seek (through Game Finder, I think) for "Washington Redskins" and "Baltimore Ravens". I can't deselect individual channels on the Hopper. It is all or none. Your final suggestions is what I have been doing, but if I forget, that's when it invariably tries to...
  17. DISH™ OTA Support and Discussion Forum
    Is there a way to force a timer to give the Dish signal priority over OTA when the same sports program is available through both? Since installing my OTA module, my Hopper 3 tries to record many NFL games OTA instead of using the satellite-supplied version of the same game. There is one OTA...
  18. Hopper System Support Forum
    My mistake. No wonder I didn't see any posts later than 2012. I know there used to be one (Hopper 1?). But they must have stopped putting them in.
  19. Hopper System Support Forum
    I searched the forum but couldn't find anything newer than 2012. I have a Hopper3, which I'm pretty sure has an eSATA port on the back. I'm thinking about replacing my old 500GB EHD with a shiny new 2TB drive, and there's a $34 difference between one with eSATA and without. If I spend the extra...
  20. Local Reception
    I just learned about them recently. I live almost exactly halfway between Baltimore and DC, but my zip code is technically in the DC reception area, so I can't get Baltimore stations through Locast even though it is available in both cities. This really sucks when the Ravens and Redskins are...
