Warning buying MS product
If they say not to use an exten sion cable, I wouldn't. I have a Brother laser printer. It will only work a maximum of 6 feet cable. Extensions of any kind do not work and it states it in their manual. Yes, that is one of the debugging steps. As mentioned tried that on a laptop and two desktops. Think that is mostly to guard against a bad extension cable though as clearly if it's directly connected to the usb port on a pc it has restricted access to the sky to pick up sats. Using a known good extension cable hasn't been any different than without in how reliable the product is. SC Tom Now have to remember which of the 1/2 dozen of those is the one came with the unit as I tried a few during debugging sessions and I have a feeling they'll use any excuse to avoid any sense of responsibility. |

You bought a probably out-of-date version of something at
a discounted price and it didn't go well so you are blaming someone else? No, I went into a store and bought a product in it's original packaging at the asking price. The included hardware does not work and neither MS (who "branded" the product) nor the hardware manufacturer take any reasponsibility. |
