- Ben Marks: Marcel was great to deal with. Had a slight mixup with the order and the issue was solved within hours. Amazing service and highly recommended :-)
- Carmel Ellen: How wonderful it was to be able to receive immediate help in purchasing a telescope when completely lost in this area, and on a Sunday when the majority of shops are closed! I was extremely satisfied with help given by Marcel - patient, knowledgeable, and able to explain simply. I highly recommend Astro Dog Online, Marcel and their website. Look them up! They're worth your time!
- Andreas: Awesome communication. Exceptionally fast postage. Easy instructions. Brilliant product. Thank you.

* If your not sure of your model number, examine your mount carefully, or consult your purchase receipt. Failing that, you can examine the connection type yourself. Make sure the unit is off, and see if an ordinary blue network cable fits. If it does, you need a RJ45. If it's too big, then you need the RJ12. it an older looking 9 pin squarish plug is present, you need the 9 Pin version. Still not sure? Just send us a message with some pictures, we will help!
