How to Change the Remote Channel on Dish Network
- 1). Use the "up" and "down" arrow buttons. These large buttons are found on the top half of your remote and will change the channel one click at a time, just like a traditional remote.
- 2). Use the "Guide" button as an alternative. This button calls up a programming guide that you can scroll through to choose a program to watch. Once you highlight the program you want to watch, press the "Select" button in the center of the four arrow keys.
- 3). Use the number key pad. Simply enter the number of the channel you want to watch. The remote will automatically change the channel for you.
