Thinking of ditching Comcast, but have question. With the Joeys can we watch different channels in other rooms at same time?

Yes not just can wach you also can wach your dvr recordings separately or record anything

Yes you can, the Hopper have 3 tuners which means 3 live channels at same time. So with 1 Hopper and 2 Joeys, all rooms can watch different. But with 1 Hopper and 3 Joeys, one room will be mirrored.

From what I can gather, you still have to pay for the channels and a card. This only allows you to stream to all the other devises in your house without having to pay the cable co for other boxes.

I have a related but slightly different question. If I have Comcast and use this device as the transmitter (plugged into my router), can I use an old FiOS router in my living room as the receiver? Trying to determine if this would work so I can buy the single pack instead of the twin pack.

That would work fine. Just set them all on the same channel and they will all be connected.

NOT TRUE. Many cable companies aka Comcast are switching the majority of their cable lineup to Digital. I used to get channels 02-99 in analog. Comcast is switching channels 31-99 to digital (most of the good stations). Thus, you may need a digital tuner to receive some/all stations depending on your cable provider.

The indoor models generally have different channels on which they can operate. You can choose channel A/B/or C to allow for multiple items to be used in the same room!

Unfortunately, no. Each Joey must be connected to the system with coax cable. You can, however, use the slingbox feature of a hopper to receive programming remotely on a computer or on a tablet device over an internet connection (so internet at the cabin would be necessary).

Yes you can:) just make sure you change the channels on them and you should be good to go

No the Joey Hopper system need to be connected to each other and the same dish for them to work.

That is what I was trying to do....... one at a time, but it did not work with a Comcast box............ It worked with a friend's Verizon box, though. I guess it depends on the cable box.

I don't know, but generally these things are on the same frequency so I would think YES. You just set them all no the same channel.

Yes. Coax is preferred. Ethernet works but might not be supported by Dish (go to satelliteguys dot com for that). And then there's adding wireless to an existing Joey, or just buying a wireless Joey.

Yes, I have the TG862G and I run XFinity phone, wired and wireless internet. I don't pay rent anymore for modem and router. TV requires a separate digital cable box supplied by Comcast. Some configuration may be required, which Comcast Support will not help you with. I was able to resolve my iphone5 connectivity issues by going to online forums. Everything is working fine now.

Artie, I'm using Comcast HD as well and have 2 of these on separate sets. Small investment with good results!!

No coax is disconnected on the Joey. just getting TV signal through wifi, and DVR through wifi. and updates through wifi. Note, I believe your hopper has to be setup on coax and network/wifi for this to work.

yes we can watch one channel and record another. and we love our magnavox. so if you want to watch another program while recording, use input through tv antenna.

yes, I do it all the time. I have three sets connect to Verizon Fios but it would apply to any cable service. To watch three different programs on three different sets you must have 3 cable adapters but NOT with this Wireless... this system does NOT include the transmitters so I am sending it back.
