    Directv LNB to fiber

    Thanks Appleboy! That would be great. I'll probably have one of our guys give you a call to discuss. It would be great to not have to re-invent the wheel. Thanks again!

    Directv LNB to fiber

    If you saw this house, I guarantee that there will not be a 4' dish in there LOL! If the property line was farther away, it would be there. What I meant by the SWM handling the traffic is that it is the central point. Yes the receivers talk back and forth to it, but I don't think that the...
