Broadband dropping out constantly when windy
Is anyone else having issues with the broadband becoming virtually unusable when it's even slightly windy outside? The broadband keeps dropping out with every slightly above normal gust of wind. I am sure it's to do with the overhead cable (copper) but it didn't use to be this bad. The pole was recently replaced and it seems to have been worse since then. Very frustrating, thinking of switching to starlink. Thanks
