Thought all PC people should know when unplugging the Dish modem, it should be off for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes NOT just the 30 seconds suggested by techs. There is a battery inside Dish modem that still runs for the 1-2 minutes after turning off or unplugging.hope this saves others from my dilemma.
Glad you got it fixed!! I usually do five minutes before I replug the modem in. Same with the Comcast DVR when I am getting pixilations.
