Now you'll see two channel 245's, click on the basic one and your picture should reappear unless it's a major storm.
If your a sports fan Directv has much more programming, NFL Sunday is only available on Directv, and they have similar packages for MLB, college football, NHL and NBA.
I also have Century Link for my internet, and I have 'fiber to the curb' at 10.0 download speed. I have phone with unlimited long distance and caller ID combined with the internet is $54.99 per month plus tax. Originally I had 1.0 speed and telephone for $59.99 but they over-billed me and when I complained they upped the speed and lowered my price.

Would you be happy if other services you had only went out in HEAVY rain? Reading these posts makes me think Direct is not the way to go. No one is denying it.
