My Dish On Demand has never worked. I have a VIP722 receiver. When I go into DOD and try to select TV shows, or movies, or whatever, it always tells me "You do not have any titles."
I have chatted with Dish tech support numerous times, but they have never been able to solve the problem. I have tried all methods of connecting the 722 to broadband - first I was using SlingLink Turbo through the power lines, then USB wireless adapter, and finally I strung an Ethernet cable straight to the box. All with the exact same results.
Here is the weird thing - a few times during all this testing DOD did work, and all the titles came up normally. I was even able to watch an old episode of Burn Notice on demand. But then it stopped working immediately after and I can never repeat it directly.
If I go to System Setup > Installation > Broadband Setup > Network Setup, the unit has an IP Address, and the status is "Connected Online".
If I go to System Setup > Diagnostics > Connection, it says "Broadband and Phone Connection OK".
Finally, I can ping the unit from my PC. All this tells me the 722 is connected to the internet properly. So why can't I see any titles?
I'm wondering if it isn't some setting in my modem or router, but I have no idea what to check. I am using a Westell DSL modem through my phone company (CenturyLink), connected to an iBoss Home router.
It appears all the smart Satellite people hang out here.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
