Every day between 5:00 pm and 5:30 pm my ViP722k receiver freezes. The picture remains on ok but none of the remote buttons function for both remote 1 and 2. When I press and hold the power button on the receiver, it restarts and everything works ok until the next day at 5:00 pm. Is it possible that remote garage door openers can be causing interference with the receiver? This problem just started a few weeks ago but nothing has changed with my tv or other electronics.

Tell me a little more about how the receiver is connected to the tv and if this is present on both tvs at the same time and lastly what brand and model of tv you have. I recently had an issue somewhat similar to this but need more information to make an educated hypothesis.

Lets check the modulator set up at the main location TV 1. Press menu - 6-1-5 this will display how the TV 2 IS SET UP. It should say 22 air and if not use the arrow keys on the remote to change that info. Once you are done click done and go to the TV2 and see if it is working. It should be if you are set to view air or antenna channels on the TV2. If not there needs to be a few more things done to isolate the issue. Let me know and we will go from there. Thhanks for using Fix Ya.

The problem for me was the TV giving off IR signals that interfered with DISH's poorly designed remote. When the TV's room ambient light sensor was turned on and it became dusk outside the DISH remote would stop working. Moving the receiver away from the TV helps but the problem is not eliminated until the light sensor is turned off.
Until DISH corrects this poor design there may be no other viable solution.

It sounds like the remote lost its function, you need to program it again, try this. Please press SAT at the top left of your remote for 5 seconds and then press RECORD three times. IF that does not work, access the system info from the TV1, location, readress that remote.

To readress that remote, try this. With the remote that is not working, please press and hold the SAT button. Once all the buttons light up, let go, and then press 9, then # (below 9). Press RECORD twice. Did the Remote Address change on the system info screen? If so, you are set!

Guest,

Are you still having problems with your DVR receiver? Try unplugging the receiver for 10 seconds and plugging back in. The receiver will reboot and acquire satellite signal. If this doesn't fix the problem there may be an issue with the receiver. I hope this helps.
