Apparently the cabling or equipment in our area is very old and that results in the houses in the area getting poor cable and even internet signals.  They&#8217;ve known about the problem for several years now.  This is not the first time we&#8217;ve had a tech here for two, three or even four hours trying to fix the problem or at least manipulate the equipment enough to get a slightly better signal. This is starting to make my stomach Churn, I&#8217;m so frustrated.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>I swear earlier today we were thinking about switching to satellite TV instead.
