We have Dish Network and now just on 2 TV sets. It has 1 Hopper 3, and 1 Joey in the bedroom. The only things you may have to do, other than connecting the Hopper cable(or Joey) to the same connector "input" would be this.
Do a "reset" or an "unplug" so it recognizes you have made a change. If you want to use only your Dish Remote to operate the TV, especially if it is a different brand the 1 you removed you have to re-program the remote.
You can do that by hitting the HOME button on the Dish Remote/move UP and over to MENU/select SETTINGS/across to tab REMOTE, then put in the info it asks for about your TV and other settings. If necessary, make sure you hit SAVE before you go back to your RECORDINGS and other choice you pick, just like the TV you are replacing.
Follow each step, in the right order, and that should do it.
