Would this work in my Dish Network receiver to get internet for things such as On Demand??

Don't believe so it operates by running software to make the connection no way to install said software on your digital device

I think it depends on which receiver you have. Dish customer service is great, they can answer that question for you.

not sure what you are asking here. if you mean could you use a streaming box from those services or a HTPC, jack it into the reciever and be golden, then 100% yes does it hook into the internet and stream those services itself, then no

HelloThank you for the question. This item is used for dish network equipment. It is probably compatible, but sold to connect dish network equipment to the Internet. I don't believe this is what you need. Best regards

Yes you can if it is a Dish Network LNB on the end. Dish's LNB will work on either Dish or Direct I've been told but Direct LNB only works for Direct. (LNB is the "eye" on the end where connections are made)

Yes. The Phillips only wants HDMI signal "in". Your Dish receiver provides HDMI "out"; a match made in heaven.

My sister has it hooked up with her cable and it works great. I have Dish network and cannot get it to operate with any of my sets. I can get it to operate the TV's but not control their box, which is of no use to me.

hi, no really, i have seen some articles on line that use this device to network internet over coaxial cable but not all devices will be able to read it . some directv receivers models are able to work with this equipment.

Any dish receiver will work as long as it does not require a broadband connection. If you cant get the receiver GM5000 to work. you maybe forgetting a step like I did. Start from scratch and follow the manual. What I don't like is having to spend an hour on the phone every time we move.

Yes it can. I have and i am running windows 7. Check my review. There is a detail process on how to accomplish dish.

This will only work on the Dish Network so only TV no internet, you would have to get a different dish strictly for internet.

You need an external hard drive and then hook up with dish network to install, of course there's gonna be a small fee to complete the procedure. It's just a small pinch, and after all it might be worth the cost to accomplish your wishes, we all hate our wallets a little bit.

I don't recommend trying to mix Dish equipment with anything else. If it works, you got really lucky. They are even touchy about what splitters/combiners used with specific equipment. If you don't have solid advice from someone who understands satellite gear pretty well, don't bother. Equipment specific to Dish Network can be a mystery.

Of course not. The unit must be registered with Dish to receive signals. If you are trying to steal satellite service, you will have to find a different way.

If you have a dish receiver that doesn't have wifi built in this will connect you to wifi you will then be able to order movies on demand and other online features.

Yes, it can from a VIP622 or VIP722. SD Content only, no HD. You'll need the dish network plugin which is downloadable from Archos's website:http://www.archos.com/store_us/family_b.html?country=us〈=en&fam;_id=0000000013&gen=5

This dish will not support HD, so that receiver will work great....same one I use. I use mine at Camp in the mountains and the dish works great, it is small and easy to set up quick. I do suggest that you look at purchasing a Satellite Finder Meter For Directv to make the set up quicker, the one I purchased was made by Satellite Finder, sold by Smartie Store on Amazon, only $8.99. You may want a tri pod or pole to mount the dish for ease as well.
