Haven't done much since my last posts which I believe was Wednesday evening.
I played around with satellite placement last night though but really couldn't find anything that seemed to work any better. But the more I thought about it the more I'm thinking this isn't a satellite issue because when it disconnects averything disconnects.
I bought this system from Amazon as a refurbished unit and it wouldn't surprise me if someone returned it because of the disconnects. The upside is I have 30 days to return so I can still play around with them but since I'm just a somewhat computer illiterate guy, I'm running out of options.
One other thing that confuses me are suggestions on this post are often rebuttled by someone else so I have a hard time knowing who to believe.
If this is a re-furb unit from amazon, and it's not working well. I would return it and either get something you know thats NEW if possible or go with something else. I've encountered this as well with a different Mfr router before with Amazon. There good and refunds and replacements.
Good Luck.
