  1. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    If anyone still cares, I ended up dropping the D satellite and switching to D streaming. I'm saving some decent money and so far it's OK. I watch via Roku and there's no way to enter direct channel numbers. I have to go through the guide to select live tv shows.
  2. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Yeah, I got it backwards
  3. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Yeah, that's giving me pause. 75 to stream plus my and my daughter's WFH connection, and Zoom calls. I can see issues here...
  4. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Update: the BBB filing may have done the trick. I got a call from someone based in the US. She advised me that they can upgrade me w/o the 2-year lease. Weird, though, she said she couldn't access the system now but she'd call back tomorrow. Said she could out in the order which would trigger...

    Don't know why I didn't think of that. Thanks.
  6. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Not a valid email, as I suspected, lol. Oh well, to the BBB I go. I've spent four calls on this already and have yet to speak to someone who's not in India. But that's a gripe for another day.
  7. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    They say they have no more of what I have. I get that, but that's not my fault.
  8. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    For the heck of it, I shot an email to bmorrow@diretcv.com. Have no idea if that's even a valid email, but if not, I'll go the BBB route. The irony is that I work in an Escalated Complaints group for a major bank, and I know how this works. But we at least make it possible to contact us in...
  9. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Been with D since 1998. Have the PP. Need to replace a faulty box. I'm told by D that they no longer have HR boxes and want to upgrade me to a Genie system. That's fine, but they're also telling me I have to commit to a new 2 year deal. Sorry, not happening. if they can't just replace my box...

    I'll make my yearly discount call when my current promo expires. Last year got free ST Max and 70/mo off my bill. If they can't do that again this year, I'm likely out. I'll try streaming.

    Tech just left. Replaced the LNB. All good. Signals back at the levels they belong.
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Just went there. One day late. Closed. Oh well
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I scheduled a tech visit. Will report on what they find.Thanks, everyone.
  14. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Let's try again. I get the Somethings Wrong message, then when I go to a menu it changes to 771. Posting those and the 99CA levels.
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Sorry it took so long to get back to you. It rained at night a few times and I didn't want to use those numbers in my reply. It's the 771 message on both my HR-24s. I don't know which transponders ESPN and TBS (East) are on but if it's the 101, here are the strengths. Not really cloudy and no...
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    For some reason, I'm having trouble with ESPN HD. I get the "something's wrong," message almost every night. It's fine in the daytime, and it's the only channel I have this issue consistently with. Once in a while, TBS gives me an issue, but switching to the west coast feed usually clears that...

    So $165 for a 56 game season?? Are they kidding? Ive subscribed every year since 1998, but I may take a pass unless this price comes down. If it was a typical 82 game season, I might understand, but 56?
  18. Internet Streaming Services
    I laid out the channel in a spreadsheet between D* , ATTTVNow Max, Entertainment. and Choice. It looks like I can get most of what I need at the Choice level, but missing PBS and CW locals, plus the NFL and NHL Networks could make this a non-starter. Rain fade has become a major annoyance for...
  19. Internet Streaming Services
    Thanks, much! Very helpful.
  20. Internet Streaming Services
    I'm a 20 year D* subscriber but I'm thinking of dumping them. Rain fade is driving us nuts, we need new boxes, it just seems like a time to look around. I've done some searches around here but I'm still confused. I see Directv Now is now ATT TV Now. What's the difference between ATT TV and ATT...
