Hello! First post here, excited to learn the world of satellites.
We have decided to go to the Hopper system with 2 Hoppers and 3 Joeys. Great, right? Not so fast!
We have had two, 4.5 hour onsite visits to try and get this working. First onsite was a single senior tech; second onsite was a supervisor and another senior tech. Still no dice on a fully working system.
They have checked the signal straight off the satellite and it is perfect. Once he hooks up a duonode, the signal is lost on 1 or 2 satellites. This would be the 3rd duonode we have had installed. Is it possible for a bad batch duonodes? The reason we have started to troublshoot is because we have had several components just sit at the downloading software screen (step 3 of 5) and not continue. We found out the components could not lock onto a satellite; hook a single node up and the system works perfect. We are just using a hopper and 2 joeys for now until we get it working.
