How well does this technology perform in extreme weather, such as heavy rain, extreme cold or snow?
• Unlike satellite signals, which can drop out during a rain- or snow storm, GNI uses wireless technology that is not easily affected by adverse weather conditions. Our high speed service has an excellent track record for reliability since it’s start in June of 2002. That said, certain antennas that we have to use for customers living further away from our base stations, by virtue of their extremely sensitive tuning, do not perform well when covered by freezing rain/ice. That kind of weather is rare (twice since 2002), but when it happens, those customers usually do not have Internet service for a few hours or a day, until the wind or warmer weather gets rid of the layer of ice on the antenna.
