Your friend in another state would have no bearing on you getting locals. Unless by some chance they are on the same account, then of course that would be the issue as the locals are spot beamed based on the service address of the account (and boxes in different states is a violation of service and Federal regulations).

What model are your boxes?

Do they each have the problem?

What zip code?

What happens when you try accessing your locals?

Have you tried any troubleshooting?
