Turkey deepfiried in peanut oil for me!

It may take 30 days or so, but Paypal simply don't loose...the buyer who sent the money would report to Paypal along with the account expecting the money. Paypal would then start freezing accounts,withdrawing funds, and adding associated fees for charge backs etc... the guy owes you a Redlobster dinner for two to say the least! I had a chargeback once for a considerable amount of money, the buyer reported as not getting the item,,,,Paypal immediately charged the amount to my account, done an investigation which took 37days total, I won......guess what I still was charged around $70 in fees for the investigation after winning the case! Guilty until prov en innocent?

If you are having trouble with the tests on this site, maybe you should report it. Now that you have posted tests from other sites now try posting results from the speed test on this site...with the same host of course.

He said he is on SB paying $40/ month! x4

yeah $159/ month !

Scores are very impressive for sat., faster download than some paying 150/month ! at the top if the page click host stats yours is showing to be 178.21 SB must use several different ones?

Vern could you post an upload speed, monthly fees, contract length, equipment/install cost? :::..

Believe me I will get DSL the day its available here, but will not pay $159/month (484 model) for any satellite connection from any company at this point. No way!

Jeffery_H, I showed you what the host 80.2 average is only half of what you posted. Point is the regular SB account shows about the same average scores on this test site for about 1/3 the price? Whats the other $80 or more/month to SB for?

If a company could market something that works as advertised....they would dominate the market. It must be near impossible task for satellite? I guess its easier to lie and make excuses if it all pays the same?

The almighty $ ......

http://www.thedatabahn.com/index.html I'm guessing more providers will mean better service?

Jeffery_H, I see you posted a speed test without vaildation links or host stats? Looking into the partial links in the test you posted it shows a host of 80.22...the average scores are listed for that host shown below. They are hardly worth $150 month to me! Download Stats Host: 80.22 80.22 Download Average = 640 Kbps :: 78 KB/sec --- 133 records found (30 days of logs) Upload Stats Host: 80.22 80.22 Upload Average = 87 Kbps :: 11 KB/s --- 25 records found (30 days of logs)

Now come on Aggr3 they [glow=red,2,300]lie fast[/glow]! I contacted tech support two evenings ago about my speeds slowing down between 7-10pm....the lady instantly told me it was due to radar jamming. I told her

If I knew the facts, DW4000 was twice as fast as the updated DW6000, before signing on.....would have shopped for a used 4000 on eBay... DirecWay says no difference in speed?

I know what would happen to my dish. attention to detail along with great patience= 5blue lights of course the certified professional installer would already know that. ACP revalidates every 3-5 days that info is found in the advanced diagnostics page. If all else fails then of course donate to the greedy.

How far are you moving this time?

Here is what DirecWay post about coax specifications: must be Commscope 5729 or equivalent for the transmit side with a run of less than 320ft and Commscope equivalent 5781 for the receive side with less than 420ft run. I know for a fact the coax that came with my free install does not meet Commscope specs http://store.commscope.com/wcsstore/residential/en_US/specsheets/5781.pdf...... DirecWay way rums a higher frequency than the junk coax can handle. Cheap coax does not meet the Commscope specs, and of course the higher the MHz, the cheap has a much greater signal loss. If your having problems and your dish is close to the 100ft mark you may want to check your coax specs. http://kb.direcway.com/display/2/kb/article.asp?aid=1125&n=2&s= My installer did not ground the dish at all just installed a grounding block with a wire attached to the transmitter ground screw! I'm sure there are installers who do a great job, but there must be at least 3X as many who just slop their way along....obviously are getting paid. (I'm told its over 200 for a basic install?) I think a video or DVD along with the equipment would inform most of us how to do it yourself.....my install is almost complete (the way it should have been done the first time by a professional!)

Most of Satellite users would be quite greatfull with that upload....seeing you are using a cable connection, not so good. A
