We had Dish for over ten years and yeah, if you get a thunderstorm with very high cloudtops, It may go out for a few minutes here or there. Its really only a problem when there are several lines of storms, which is rare.

Right now i have Fioptics through the phone company. Im having nothing but problems, guy tells me the bandwidth tops out and it shuts down a couple times a day to clear itself. Sometimes it pops back up, sometimes its a half hour or more and sometimes you gotta unplug all the boxes and reconnect. Dish is looking more and more likely expecially since it has Mav and Blaze TV now.

I'll never got back to Time Warner even if they were the last company on earth. F* them, worse service, overpriced etc ive ever delt with. One of the few companies I've sworn off for good.
