Short answer, No. However, your speed may decrease by up to 50% during torrential downpours of 6" per hour or more. Luckily, this type of rain is very rare in our coverage areas. Wireless links are not affected by fog, smog, snow or non-torrential rain.

Our signal will penetrate the walls of most buildings. It will not pass through live trees, but is unaffected by plastic trees. The general rule of thumb is that the radio signal will pass through anything that doesn't contain water or metal.

The effects of weather on Microwave radio signals vary based on the frequency used and the distance the signal travels. With the frequencies and distances in our network, signal degradation due to heavy rain, snow, or fog are negligible. The degradation due to heavy rain is less than .2 db and our system is designed with at least a 10 db signal fade margin. The antenna we use is 12" tall x 3.5" wide and weighs less than 1 pound with an optional reflector dish used to boost the signal.

There are known issues with interference, including (but not limited to) amateur radios, existing microwave towers or antennas, and other 2.4 or 5.8 Ghz wireless devices. If you have a 2.4 Ghz cordless phone, you will need to locate it at least 10 feet away from your computer, antenna cable, and/or antenna.

The BlackBerry handheld communicates using radio frequency just like a cellular phone. Coverage is affected by anything that interferes with radio waves. For example, you might find that the radio signal is stronger outside a building compared to inside.

No. The technology used by Phoenix Internet operates at very low power levels, similar to a cell phone, and much less than the amount that is emitted by your microwave oven. Also, radio frequency power drops dramatically as you move away from the power source. Typically, our antennas would not be placed where any person would be able to stand right in front of it for any significant period of time.

Many customers notice that their current asphalt roof will begin to show signs of weathering just a few years after installation. Although these roofs will remain water tight, the exposure to the ultra violet and severe weather conditions cause existing roofs to suffer from discolouration, cracking, warping and blow off. Springhouse Shingles, due to their unique patented design combined with the proven ability of metal and superior coatings, will not show any signs of weathering for many years.

Yes, both will diminish the signal. For that reason you will need a clear line-of-sight to one of our access points. Yes and no. Large amounts of rain or snow may diminish the signal, but wet weather also evens the air temperature. This reduces problems with interference issues such as fade drift, thereby increasing your speeds. At most you may see a 10% reduction in speed during a heavy rain or snow storm.

Heat exhaustion is the primary condition that a horse must be safe-guarded against in hot weather, especially during combinations of high temperature and high humidity. This relates to the horse's ability to cool itself as well as stay hydrated and can be potentially fatal. Signs of heat exhaustion can include a weak, disoriented, or staggering gait, breathing problems, a high rectal temperature (over 40.5 C), muscle tremors, or even collapse or seizure.

Horses are well-engineered for cold weather conditions. Having evolved on windswept mountain steppes millennia ago, they are good at maintaining their core body temperatures even when the exterior thermometer plunges well below freezing. Their coats provide excellent water repellency, and their guttural pouches, at the back of the throat, are thought to help warm cold air before it makes its way down to the delicate tissues of the lungs.

Severe storms or very heavy rain to the South-to-Southwest of your location may interrupt satellite reception until the storm clears or moves. Cloudiness or average rain should not interrupt your service.

The weather could have many affects. At Ultra Finish we warranty all of our jobs and therefore will not jeopardize the product and quality of our work by working under conditions that are not suitable for painting. We will however do our best to make up for any lost time due to severe weather conditions in order to finish your home or project in a timely manner.

No, unlike satellite Internet, our towers are much closer to you with a line of sight. Plus, the signal does not have to pass through the atmosphere where it could cause a loss of signal.

a) Performance of any wireless device can be affected by interference from other devices like cordless phones, microwave oven, and neighbouring networks. Please change your wireless channel to 1~13 (except 1, 6 and 11) to see if the signal improves.

You may want to consider changing your router to channel 1, 6, 11. Channel 6 is the most commonly used channel for 2.4 Ghz devices (including cordless phones, wireless keyboards and mice). In most cases you will get the maximum range on channel 1. Make sure that the router in question is positioned in the highest point available. For example, if the building is two stories high, you need to place the router on the second floor - not the first floor.

The wireless signal of the Access Point usually can cover a radius coverage of 50m in the closed environment. (i.e. the space is separated by floor-to-ceiling brick walls) Wireless signal is good within 25m. Beyond 25m, wireless signal strength will become weaker and data rate will drop. Actual performance may be varied depending on the radio conditions at the locations where the Access Points are installed.

Cellular/PCS wireless is also available from AT&T, Cingular, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. Nextel has declined the opportunity to participate. Currently there are several kiosks which offer travelers internet connections, in addition to the standard dial service offered by the phone company via the RJ-11 jacks in the pay phones.

Wireless Internet access is exactly what it sounds like. CaribServe.NET connects you to the Internet via a high-speed wireless radio modem, all without the need or usage of phone lines. Thus, there is no need to worry about slow downloads, busy signals, or disconnections anymore, with wireless internet your computer is always on the internet.
