Looking for some guidance. I have been connected to Gold Mountain from my house for about a year, and I have okay coverage. I have a Dynadish 5, which has five built-in LEDs to indicate connection strength. At home, I get one or two LEDs to light up, and I'm able to make calls over Hamwan with a VOIP phone. Today, I took my Dynadish portable, and set it up with good line of site to Paine, Westin, and Beacon. I had all five LEDs lit up when I aimed at Beacon. I had hoped to be able to plug in my VOIP phone and make a test call, but the phone got stuck at "Initializing DNS," regardless of which site I tried. Took it all back home, set it up the same way on my roof, and was talking on the phone in under a minute. My assumption is that I need to re-initialize the Dynadish 5 when I change connection sites. Is this correct? If so, is there an easy way to switch over from one to another, or do I need to open up Winbox and follow the instructions in the "Connect" phase of Client Node Configuration? Or do I need to do something else? I'd like to be able to move from site to site without complications. Any advice/ideas are appreciated. -Lionel K7BIX Hamshack Hotline#: 5670
