Plagued With Problems -- Just Ordered Viasat To Complement Hughesnet (Am I Nuts?)
Southernsierra, I took a look into your account to see how the tech visit went (you could say I was a bit eager to see how everything went). Looks like they got out there and moved the dish onto a pole mount for you and quite a few other things taken care of!
This makes me really happy!
Let me know how everything's running.

Southernsierra, I am incredibly sorry and upset to hear the technician didn't show up. This isn't acceptable, I'm going to escalate this to their management, I appreciate you letting us know about this.

- Note: If hughesnet starts working next weekend I will officially have 3 internets at one house. I may be the only person in this country with 3 internets.
Sorry, I have hooked up Hughesnet to people that have ATT and comcast.. The Hughesnet is the backup to there backup. More people have backup then you would think..LOL I have two at my house.
gokartergo24 interesting!
Installer called me. Said he will have to drive 3.5 hours 1 way to get there. He said he would do it though unless "his truck had issues, and it has had issues before but he hopes it won't this time". He said he is leaving at 6am to get there are 930 am. He said he would bring pole equipment. Asked about the ground, I said it was soft and that Viasat guy installed a pole last weekend. DATE SET FOR SEPT 9th 9am - 11am. Will follow up as to what went down. So nuts to drive 3.5 hours.... any other state than california and you are 2-3 states away at that point.
I'm glad we are getting you taken care of, although I wish it had been sooner!
Keep me updated or just shoot back a reply if you have any questions.

Just a very late thought from another remote location user. We had to have our pole mounted (concrete set) Hughes dish realigned once, we blamed the neighbor's loose dog but it might have been a curious bear, as we had a heavy pole mounted bird feeder pushed over by a bear at about the same time (he left signs...). We ended up fencing in the TV/Hughes dish setups to keep wildlife away from it.
That's a good idea! Thanks -- may consider it. We have bears too.
The guy is supposed to come out on Sunday to set the pole. EXCITING TIMES.
