wireless connection from a neighbor that can get cable or dsl... and i'm not saying steal their wifi, but work out a deal with them to put in a wireless bridge. I recently did an install for a guy that has no service where he lives, but his buddy that lives on the other side of town has cable...

To do this you would basically have to work with your isp's to see if they will implement BGP routes for your ip address. I work for a business focused internet service provider, and we do this all the time for customers. A lot of big business will have multiple connections coming in as a...

I would look into the wireless route a little more. I don't know what city you live in, but there are often fixed-wireless providers, that you don't know about. I work for a fixed wireless microwave isp, and we do little to no advertising. Our customers are mostly big companies needing custom...

you have a PM I found mine, but it is missing the top bolt, but I used to just use a screwdriver, should be easy to find a replacement

I think I may have one of those still in my toolbox... I'll check tomorrow when I get home from work and if so, I'll let you know. I haven't used it for years, but I think I still have it

I work for a company that provides internet to businesses over microwave radios both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint. In your case it is most likely a multipoint system. The farthest multipoint shot we have is a customer 52 miles away from the tower site. I suspect we could go farther...

your wireless should be working better than that. I work for a wireless ISP, and we have customers up to 50 miles away from our towers. The one thing you said that would worry me is that you have a rotor and can adjust the antennas... if the equipment the ISP installed is a radio with a built...

I would do the modem in the garage and run cat5 the rest of the way. I install the type of internet service you are getting, and I install 300' of cat5 all the time with no problem. Just make sure you get quality cable, and if you are burying it, get direct burial cable. The other option...

If you can get signal from a WISP, definately go that route. That said, don't always take at face value when the sales guy tells you. There is one company here that lies through their teeth just to get a sale. The download speeds on a wildblue system are pretty stable though... everyone I...

Just out of curiousity, what part of washington state are you in? I install both wildblue and hughesnet, and I would have to say all the people we switch from Hughes 7000's to Wildblue seem happy with the change. I don't know if it varies in different beams or whatnot, but we have had a lot of...

I don't know anything about this site, nor have I ever had hughesnet at my home, but wouldn't he need the site id to pull your usage information?

watch your usage, with 4 pcs you could hit their limits pretty quick

Thank god... His constant pimping of skyway was getting a little old

i haven't had that problem at all... I have done 4 WB installs this week and both of them went very fast

He never said that you claimed your lnb's transmit. You asked how much a 2-way lnb cost to replace. He was pointing out that there is no such thing as a 2-way "lnb"... its a TRIA. He was trying to correct your terminology, and you didn't seem to catch that.

I'm not trying to be mean or disrespectful, but seriously, he isn't nit-picking, he is trying to get to the truth about such services. You have come onto this board as a promoter of 1-way satellite internet, yet you don't seem to know how they work. You have come to a board full of...

I used an analog meter on skyway. I haven't installed on in a while, but I would use a channel master analog. I actually found that using the little sat beeper thing that they send for a self-install works just as easy and fast.

is there any other cable outlets in the house that aren't being used by the dish system? If there is... the cable guy may have hooked up the open outlets hoping maybe the computer was located at one of those locations. If you can find an open cable jack, hook up the modem and see if it locks.

or if you are just worried about hooking up the desktop... look at some of the powerline ethernet stuff

You are doing an install tuesday and you don't have payment worked out with the company yet? It all depends on who you work for, how much they provide, ect. I contract for a couple of companies. One pays $130, but they provide all materials, wire, ect. The other pays $160, and I provide...

I use Last.fm, its basically the same idea as the other two

Directv partners with different providers in different areas. Is is actually DSL, or satellite internet? And is the comcast DSL? or cable internet. If the choice is between cable, or satellite internet, always go cable.

ok, it is still up, maybe they were doing maintenance or something last night. I wonder how many they really sell, it would be interesting to know.

and now it seems like its gone... the page isn't working for me
