I'm trying to buy a 322 dish network receiver, new in box. Since its new in box, can I just assume that I can activate it without any problems for my account?1. Even if it's new do I still need to check if the Smart card number and Receiver number is okay for activation. 2. Apart from this do you need to worry about the date of manufacture? Are all 322 receivers the same no matter when they are made. If they are different can software updates make it on par with a more recently manufactured receiver?3. What else do I have to look for?

if it is new, never used, it is set to go. if the software needs to be updated, it will do it for free by doing a reset.
the only problem you can have is you. qualifying, and installation.
