Well, we got another new satellite modem Monday... And it didn't work. We called tech support and found out it hadn't been set up, so they gave us GPS coordinates to put in it: 0 degrees 0 minutes North, 0 degrees 0 minutes West. Putting us somewhere in the Gulf of Guinea south of Africa if those were correct.
I managed to pull the coordinates off our old modem and got it working, but we were still having problems.
Today a technician showed up (4 hours early) and adjusted our dish and re-initialized the modem. Now it's even worse. I can't stay in the game for more than a few minutes at a time. And it's the same problem the last one had: the Up-link keeps going out. Good thing I sprang for the 5 gb wireless card...
