I previously intalled a KU Band satellite reciever. The problem is it always runs out of signal everytime a weather disturbance occurs. Is there a way I can possibly circumvent its weather dependency? what gadgets/equipment can i use to solve this problem?

Terrestrial Satellite links are subject to signal disruptions from weather and physical obstructions. This is just the way this technology works. Microwave signals come in all sorts of frequencies, but the one used for your network uplink is not strong enough to penetrate weather disturbances. If it was strong enough, you would probable have a brain tumor by now from all the radiation emmited by it. So be thankful it isn't strong enough to emit gamma rays and turn you green like the hulk.
