My Dish Network receiver is connected to my home LAN and the internet via TCP/IP for remote control of my DVR, on-demand movie downloads, etc. IIRC, there's a place in the Dish OnLine menu to get the receiver to request an IPv4 address from a DHCP server. If there's no IP address, then there's no remote control, online movies, etc. I'd bet that DirecTV has a similar setup.
DISH Network uses quite a few different Satellites, not only one. The satellites we currently use consist of the following, 61.5, 72.7, 77, 110, 118.75, 119, and 129.
You should use "netstat":netstat -p TCP

Just to clarify on the answers given. The LNBs are different for DISH Network and DTV along with the receivers. The LNB and receiver takes the signal from the satellite and gives you your signal on your TV. As stated, you can't use different receivers and LNB from different companies. The dish outside does not matter, just the LNB and receiver. Simply, no. The satellite dishes use different switching schemes internally for accessing the satellite transponders. Bull....loney. I'm using an old 18" DirecTv dish to receive signals from a Dishnetworks satellite at 119W. The satellite receivers will be different because different signalling protocols are used.
Tcp/ip
DISH Network does not currently offer services in Canada.
AnswerThat depends on the type of network you are talking about. For instance, the Internet is a network and uses TCP/IP as its protocol. Intranets based on Microsoft Server also use TCP/IP. However, there are other protocols.
There are many satellites that Dish Network uses.
You can use the dish but not the LNB; it will not work for dtv. The DISH Network LNB and the receiver decodes the signal and gives you a picture on your TV.
The codes we here at DISH Network have & would use to attempt to program the DISH Network remote with your Olevia TV would be, 506 or 127.
