That region might just be busy. But regardless, take that Joey and go plug it in at the access point and connect it to the access point with the ethernet cable to see if it'll link.
I don't understand. The only eithernet port on WAP connects to Hopper (or reversed HIC in my case).
Or not enough workers, combined with a holiday weekend, makes for a slight delay.
I got it working. The tech at Dish never mentioned resetting the WAP. I did and it finally paired with WJ4. Not going to cancel until after another update/night.
Just for in the future, you can disconnect it from the hopper and connect to the wireless Joey directly and it will link up, or at least it should if everything's working right and then you can plug the ethernet cord back into the hopper and move the Joey back to wherever it's going to be, and when it boot up, it should be connected
Are you saying to by-pass the WAP and hard wire WJ directly to Hopper? I would have to "borrow" HDMI cable from blu-ray player or ATV to see if it works.
Keep in mind he said ethernet cable, not HDMI. Me, I have a drawer full of ethernet and HDMI cables!
Actually they are in several drawers. Ethernet in one, HDMI in another, various length coax in yet another...Just one?
I meant I would need HDMI so I could SEE if the WJ paired via ethernet.Keep in mind he said ethernet cable, not HDMI. Me, I have a drawer full of ethernet and HDMI cables!
No, if you have difficulty getting an access point and a wireless Joey to connect, move the Joey to where the excess point is,connect the wireless Joey directly to the access point with the ethernet cable just long enough to get them to connect then reconnect the access point to the hopper and put the wireless Joey wherever it's going to be and power it up and it should still be connected
Just move the one out of the hopper to the wireless Joey while you're doing this
My WAP is upstairs. The coax box is on opposite side of room where the TV is. I used a HIC in reverse connected to the WAP.
