Back online with WildBlue

The installer today was from a different company than installed the unit the first time. What makes it interesting is that the first installer did a poor job -- used the wrong kind of cable to connect between the dish and the modem, used several wrong connectors on the cable (low pass filters for blocking noise but the wrong specification -- these blocked a lot of the signal as well). That will go a long way to explain the poor performance that we have experienced in the past -- packet loss was a big deal before. Will be running some utilities to test for it tonight after I get a bite to eat and read the internet. Posted by DaveH at November 19, 2008 5:07 PM
