Hi, I am going to be ordering D* for my grandparents but need some questions answered about installation.
The previous owners of their house ran all of the coax in the attic so Comcast put the splitter in the attic. Will a DirecTV installer run the cable from dish through the attic and install a switch where the current splitter is? All the installs in my area have been done running the coax on the exterior of the house so I wasn't sure if they will work in an attic.
Also I was curious if there is any kind of protection plan that will protect them if a bad windstorm rips the dish of their house. Last winter part of their roof was blown off, so I am worried about their dish coming off.
Thanks for any answers.
