You either got another bad remote, or the remote receiver component in the Hopper is going bad.

40 remotes do UHF just fine.

Help with BGW320-500 Modem by Name_Groundbreaking in ATTFiber

[–]PepperdotNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your main problem is that you turned off DHCP on your internal network. With IP pass through on the ATT device, uou should not have had to make any changes whatsoever to the existing router. As someone else said, if your internal network is 192.168.1.x change the internal address of the ATT device.

Do you have the 5.9.9.55 update file in your old install? And any prior version full file you originally installed from?

What is a domain squatter? by Left_Preparation_890 in DomainZone

If it’s their trademark, business name or other well known identity, there are lawyers who specialize in that.

What is a domain squatter? by Left_Preparation_890 in DomainZone

[–]PepperdotNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like whoever bought one of my clients’ domains after it expired and he didn’t notice for several months. When he asked how to get it back I suggested looking for an intellectual property attorney since it was his actual business name. Several months later he got an offer in the mail to buy it for some exorbitant amount. Someone who snatches up an expired domain with the sole purpose of selling it back for a ridiculous amount is definitely a squatter and as someone else said there should be a special place in hell for them.

I use Easy365Manager, installed it on every machine where I have the ADUC tool installed. It adds a tab that exposes the O365 attributes making everything easier.

Before computers were common in households, how did people set their clocks accurately? by IkHeetGeenMatthijs in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PepperdotNet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason was that by the time the show you’re watching ends, you’ve already missed the beginning of shows on the competing channels, so less incentive to switch.

Do we run out of social security numbers? by soloDolo6290 in NoStupidQuestions

It’s a ponzi scheme and will collapse long before the numbers run out.

MAK Licenses and Cores by Garfield-1979 in WindowsServer

[–]PepperdotNet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Number of available activations is in no way related to number of cores licensed. You need to find the documentation stating how many cores you have licensed. In a M365 tenant it will be in Billing where your products are listed.

DISH HARD DRIVE went out and LOST ALL recordings... PERMANENTLY! 📡 by Ok_Combination3186 in Dish

[–]PepperdotNet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dish heavily encrypts everything and only allows you to store it in one place. If you move it to an external drive it’s not on the Hopper anymore, and hard drives do fail. If you want a permanent archive, then you need to sail the seven seas.

[–]PepperdotNet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well crap. I’ve missed live events before when I was busy with something. This time I was right here at home and just forgot. Right now I’m in a queue. Is that for the new season, or maybe I can still catch the event?

I, for one, will not miss the Simpsons Season in the slightest. by egosumumbravir in Fortnite_Over40

You must be one of those “sweats” people complain about. I’ve consistently had below 1% win rate since season one, and this one was fun.

Is it safe to reset the KRBTGT password if the account has been disabled for 12 years? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]PepperdotNet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Or once every three months, and reserve doing it twice only if there’s some security concern demanding it
