    From the official T-Mobile email: "Sign up March 28th through April 3rd at T-Mobile.com/MLB"
  2. DIRECTV Programming
    I hope that DirecTV and Dish customers realize that they should be rooting for those services during a carriage dispute. The content providers want to get more money out of them and those increased costs will be passed on to their customers.
  3. Internet Streaming Services
    This is true but doesn't really matter as they use CGNAT and the hotspot's IPv4 address isn't publicly routable anyway. A workaround for some users is a reverse tunneling service like ngrok - Online in One Line or Pagekite - The fast, reliable localhost tunneling solution. Some have...

    So can I get rid of my $10/mo "Advanced Receiver Service - HD" fee?
  5. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Thanks for the answer compnurd.

    Is there a DirecTV app (NOT DirecTV Stream) that is compatible with any of the major streamers - Roku, FireTV, Chromecast with Google TV, Tivo Stream 4K, Apple - or is it still limited to some phones and tablets? Edit1: Looks like some have successfully sideloaded it on FireTV...

    Most of the channels are now accessible.

    I just wasted some time trying to replace the internal drive only to find out that it's a slim (didn't do my homework). I don't have that size. I do have some other drives and another esata interface. I'll give that a try when I get a chance.

    Will D* give a free replacement for this particular issue? I don't have a service agreement and I had always understood that esata drives were unsupported, so they might just say that the receiver works standalone.

    I don't know the exact age; several years at least. I'm willing to entertain that it's near EOL, but the fact that I hear and feel it spin up on power on and it can be opened by a PC leads me to conclude that it's not dead.

    Is there a known FW that's done this? My software version is 0xc8b from 7/14. Is there any chance that DTV would request back an HR24-200 that's >5 yrs old? If not, I'm thinking the easiest and cheapest option would be to replace the internal HD as suggested.
  12. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I've had an HR24-200 connected to an esata 2TB external hard drive for years without problems. Recently, the receiver lost it's connection to the external hard drive and displayed programs from its internal drive instead. I've rebooted innumerable times, changed the esata cable, and finally...

    I am subscribed to MLB EI but couldn't get MLB.TV to work. My profile said I didn't have a subscription. I went through the activation process at Login which worked like a charm. MLB.TV is now working. Edit: If that link doesn't work, the URL with blanks added is ht tps: // commerce. mlb.com/ei
  14. DIRECTV Programming
    Does MLBEI include MLB.TV again as it has in previous years? The only thing I see that alludes to it is "stream the game live". MLB EXTRA INNINGS on DIRECTV - Watch & Stream MLB Baseball

    HR44. Smart Search, which I believe is what is referred to as boolean search. Yes, the exact string is 'WHITE SOX BROADCAST'. Since no one else is reporting a similar problem, I'll have to assume that it is unique to me and start jumping through more hoops such as you've suggested. Thanks.
  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Hmm. After a few weeks of not working, the WHITE SOX BROADCAST game for today is scheduled to record. I didn't change anything.
  17. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I meant Smart Search aka boolean search, instead of manual recording.
  18. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Last year, I used a manual recording of "WHITE SOX BROADCAST" to get recordings of all the White Sox home team broadcasts in the 700 range for MLB EI. This year, it doesn't work. I've tried re-doing the setup with broad and narrow categories. There is no 'match'. Is this method working for...
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    That's not my experience from two weeks ago. The DirecTV directions say, "Return your non-working receiver and access card within 7 days to avoid non-return fees." Emphasis NOT added. I was also required to return an HR-24 which I thought they'd stopped retrieving years ago.
  20. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Thanks for that interesting and helpful info. I'll look further into that option.
