Thread: Another sad day

Satellites shouldn't 'drift off'.... I suspect that your dish has 'drifted off' & I have had to fix a few over the last couple of years.
There is usually a signal strength program that you can run while you adjust the dish.
You need somebody in front of the computer yelling out as it gets better or worse.

If you have a marginal mobile signal, you can get a Yagi Antenna for about $150 & attach it to a 'home gateway' with a wireless access point.

That is what we use up here, I gave up on the satellite because of the lag.

Cockies with or without feathers ?
Rats and mice can be a problem around here (too many palm trees) but the techs know that and are actually pretty good. They even wash their hands before running new cable.
