April 4th, 2012

DISH has a long history of technological innovation, and that tradition continues today. With award-winning customer service, a wide range of programming options and the industry’s best technology, there’s little wonder why DISH has quickly become a hit with its customers.

With additions such as the Hopper, Sling Adapter and other powerful, easy to use hardware, DISH customers still enjoy cutting-edge technology not available anywhere else.

Record up to six HD channels at once, watch different channels on each television, and access any recorded program on any TV in the home. Using DVR technology throughout your home has never been easier.
  • Sling Adapter
    Sometimes a television simply isn’t enough. In addition to full DVR functionality on any television in the home, DISH Network’s Sling Adapter enables you to effortlessly watch live or recorded television on your PC, laptop or mobile device. A Sling Adapter also makes it easy to schedule recordings, browse the program guide and even control receivers with a mobile device. Even better, as with all of DISH Network’s hardware, it’s simple to set up and use.

Programming Options

With 10 different programming packages, DISH Network provides options for virtually everyone. Programming choices range from 40 to more than 315 channels, with many including free HD for life, free installation and many additional offers. DISH Network also provides packages featuring sports, family friendly programming and other specialties. Additionally, DISH features premium packages including HBO, STARZ, SHOWTIME and Cinemax.

Customer Service

In addition to advanced technology and exceptional programming, DISH Network has earned a well-deserved reputation for great customer service. A 24/7 customer support center, highly trained “Dr. DISH” support agents and online chat agents means customers will always receive the best support every time. In fact, DISH Network consistently leads the way in customer satisfaction rankings.
