    Losing Satellite with Locals

    My neighbor has a super dish that gets 121, 110, and 119. He says that the satellite that carries his local stations will be shut down soon and the locals will be moved to a different satellite.

    I am a new WB customer. Is there a way to view the actual download and upload speeds in real time? It would be best if that info was in graph form, but numerical data would be OK.
