Can't access dish satellite
I lost access to Dish network about 5 days ago. I was accessing it through the "Live TV" tile, although it had not been functioning correctly for a long time, ( it would play the Roku tv guide in front of the dish page, kind of like a shadow, until I did a long hold on my satellite remote). Now nothing works for access, both the left "live tv" and the tile take me to Roku tv.. I've tried Antenna which now says satellite, HDMI1,2&3, nothing. Also no way to see if the TCL tv is on channel 60 which is required by dish for viewing (this is also a new issue, you used to be able to check). I've been all over the web and this page and no tips have resolved the problem. The dish satellite works on my husbands Fire tv in a separate room, so it is a Roku issue not dish, Help!
