Troubleshooting:
75% of all technical problems that an agent can help you with
can be solved by following these five easy steps:
1. Make sure your DISH remote is in SAT mode.
2. Make sure your TV is on the correct input/channel.
3. Make sure you’re on the correct Favorites List.
4. Check for anything obstructing the signal to your satellite
dish, such as tree branches, severe rain, or snow build-up.
If it is safe to do so, remove the obstruction or wait for it
to pass.
5. Reset your receiver by unplugging it from the wall for 10
seconds. Plug it back in and turn it back on.
