Sirius poor signal

[bohica1956]

I keep getting a poor signal strength wherever I am. Had it a few weeks ago now will not reset after a reboot. Is there anything else you can do to increase or fix the signal. Never had a problem with any other vehicle. At least I have Spotify to bail me out but I pay for Sirius or do I need to cancel on this car

Sirius obtains its "signal" in the Air from the car's cell connection, the same as Spotify.
Maybe try logging out of Sirius, then back in?

As DeaneG pointed out, "satellite" radio in this car has nothing to do with satellites - SiriusXM content is delivered through the car's data connection. I also seem to perennially have a poor data connection based on the signal strength graphic, although it usually doesn't seem to affect my streaming experience. Are you actually experiencing dropouts with XM, or are you just concerned about the signal strength icon? Since XM uses your data connection, any signal strength problems would impact all media except FM radio.

Thank you for all the explaining, I did not know that it worked off of the cell signal. I do go to places that ATT will have bad coverage.
