im using a dual rep navy dom
my work around so far has been to drop and guards and move 20KM from them but then i have to slowboat back to them to pick em up to go to the next room killing more of my time
Dual omni's at a minimum. I run 2 fed omni's on my normal domi and my sentries can hit cruisers orbiting at 8000m |

Been afk but had some additional thoughts on this.
I am in a similar boat as you. I have not yet finished training for T2 Sentries. But do not have the issues you are describing.
I run a regular Domi, with 2 fed navy omnis. I also am using Faction sentries. Yes they are expensive but they are darn good until you can use T2's And really, unless you are AFK or brain dead it is near impossible to lose a sentry drone in PVE. So consider them a temporary investment. I intend to sell mine back on contract once I can use T2's and get my money back from them.
With that setup the only thing my gardes dont hit well under 10,000m are frigs. Occasionally a frig or 2 get past me. in these cases I just ignore them, cleaning up everything with my sentries. Then at the end I deploy Hobs to clean up the few frigs that remain.
Also, I have a hard time believe you need a dual rep navy domi. I run a single rep and do fine on a regular domi. Dropping a rep would allow you to likely drop a cap recharger in the mid and replace with a web or TP (personally I would use a TP over a web in missions, but that is just me). |

Sentry Drone Interfacing 5 is a must-have skill.
Till then, just use lights or mediums
You know, you were doing ok until that last line.
Even without Sentry Drone interfacing 5, sentries (especially faction ones) will way out damage lights or mediums, so there is no reason to stick with lights and mediums until you can fly T2 sentries.
Trying to finish most LVL 4's with a Domi and only medium drones would be painful at best.
