Internet connectivity

[hnakacey]

I have been having issues since I first signed up with HughesNet in January.  In the first month I had to have a tech guy come and repoint my dish.  Then internet then worked for about a week.  Since then we really haven't had service.  They said next time they come out it would be a $110 charge.  I can not afford to pay that everytime the wind blows. 

I have tried calling and chatting with representatives and keep getting cut off.  I am so extremely frustrated I can't even tell you.  I have powered down the modem, reset them modem, and nothing has worked. 

They wifi connecting is strong but I am not getting connnection between the dish and the modem. 

Is there anything I can do to help this fixed.  I am tired of paying monthly and getting no service.

When you go to the system control page, what are the three digits next to State Code?

I finally got someone from advanced tech and they are sending out a tech... need to reposition dish... again.

Why does it keep going out of position?

Odd that it keeps going out of position like that.

I wondered if it was maybe attached to a roof.

No, it's definitely not normal.  Other than for a service plan upgrade or some other specific reason that required pointing to an alternate satellite, I think the only other time I've seen someone on here needing to have to have their dish re-pointed a 2nd time was a few years after the first.

I wonder.if it needs to be put up somewhere more stable.
