Cable TV issues - are we doing something wrong?

I made the same mistake with our new Minnie...didn't have cable reception for three days, and then finally thought of the booster button. I was used to it being on the wall in our Sunline, but in the Minnie, it's inside the entertainment center cabinet and hard to see if you don't know its there. But, then again, once the cable problem was solved, you still have the problem that most of what's on is garbage, and most campground wi fi signals don't support streaming stuff from Amazon or Netflix!
