Dish Wally HD Receiver with 54.0 Voice Remote

Was as good as new, works great at a good price

Easy to set up and use

Went through an exhaustive search and compare to Wally prices. For just a few dollars more i got a new Wally with a full warranty and pretty much guaranteed functionality

A bit of an upgrade over the VIP211k. The nice feature is the dual tuners so you can record one show and watch another. Still getting used to the new interface but it's fairly intuitive. It's smaller which helps with limited space in an RV. We have this on a Winegard Traveler so we have 3 Wally receivers and all three can watch different channels on different satellites at the same time. More reliable than the Hopper. Had nothing but issues with the Hopper. Only thing that would improve this is a built in hard drive for the DVR. Attached an external drive and works well.

Received this unit 2 days before initial delivery window. Hooked it up to a new-to-me Winegard Playmaker, and the TV in our camper.The unit powered up, paired with the provided remote, and booted the Playmaker up. I chose my state from the drop-down, and within a few minutes the Playmaker had locked onto the 119, 110, and 129 satellites.Once the 'call for activation' message popped up on screen, I called the number and got a pleasant and helpful stateside rep who added this receiver to my existing account in about 10 minutes (including hold time). 5 minutes later I had all of my channels.I had a bit of reservation about this purchase based on some of the reviews about it (1) being a refurb and (2) Dish not wanting to activate it due to being linked to an existing account. I encounted NEITHER of these issues. The activation went perfectly, and I saw nothing on the Wally packaging that lead me to believe it was a refurbished unit.I'm looking forward to having this option in our camper, and the entire process couldn't have gone smoother.

Purchased for use with my King Satellite Dish. Works perfectly. Fast connection to satellite and easy Hopper setup. Card is included, just call dish or direct tv to set up service. Be advised, if you want internet it does not have built in connection you have to have a WiFi router to connect and receive internet.

We ordered this receiver as a gift for my parents to use in their RV. Unbeknownst to us, the receiver we received was registered to another user and we were unable to activate it, despite hours and hours of phone calls with comcast and hiring a geek squad guy. We finally realized that the R number on the packaging is completely different than the R number of the receiver. There was obviously a packaging mix up at Sensil, and we are now the owner of a useless receiver that can never be activated to us. Sensil refuses to refund our money because we didn't discover THEIR packaging error within the 30 day return window.
