So, I'm stuck using satellite in one of my shops....and I'm having some pretty big connection issues. Because of some recent remodeling, we've had to move the modem to the other side of the shop, and because of this, we've got about 250-300 feet of coax round trip.....and speeds are slower than dial-up at this point....

Anybody know if the length of the coax could be effecting connection speeds?

Thanks......
 
Length shouldn't, at least not at that length. I would put my money on a bad end or something of that nature. That would very easily cause problems. See if you can get the ends reterminated.

Thanks...

The actual problem turned out to be pretty simple....should have thought to ask....

Turns out my partner spent the better part of last night downloading new installs of our point of sale software..... more than Hughes was comfortable with.... and... well you know:rolleyes:
