OK thanks for the replies. I guess in the comerical they wouldn't want to show the "naked look". :)

My Father got Hughesnet installed. The installer seems to have done a good job overall. But installer did not put a "lnb cover" on and said it didn't use a "cover". My question is : is that correct? It looks "exposed" and unprofessional with "everything" exposed. The tv commerical shows a...

mine is at 9.5db,but I know what I doing. many first time self installers are not going to do well with the beeper.

OP did not say it was dropping in & out. He stated that 5.7db was the best he could adjust it to. If it is a stable 5.7db it "will" work.

the only problems with skyway I've seen are : 1)the install is more difficult because delay in the signal strengh read out when you adjust the dish. 2)evenings/weekends have too many users for servers/bandwidth, so service is greatly reduced at times.

I agree they have something wrong, (not aimed properly,lnb skew off,obstruction, ect)but telling them they "have to have" over 8db is not entirely true.

you don't need 8db for it to work. if it has a locked signal it will work. Just use it.

the problem with satellite is bandwidth vs number of users. Speeds vary by what time of day/how many users on. It is better than dail-up but does not stay at same steady preformance.

Do you mean internet access? if DSL is available at your location, then you should able to get ATT DSL for a very low price ( I've heard as low as $10 a month)

NCSouthernBelle you are right the green light does not light up. But if you get your elevation and azmith correct you will be on AMC4 satellite. The beeper does beep a high pitch. You probably were already getting the satellite. Once set up your computer you can see the signal level on the...

I have only had skyway a couple of days. So far it works as expected Except for the evenings(ie 7-10pm). It is much slower in the evenings and often doesn't fully load pages. I'm sure that it is because of the number of users at that time. mrt2o, if you want to save money, why do you have AOL...
