<title>[DW7000] Does HughesNet Slow Down BitTorrent Traffic?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20466353</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hey all, I know the FAP policy pretty much stops torrenting for the most part, but there's a new tool to actually test if an ISP is traffic shaping.  I still haven't been able to get access to the test server because it's supposedly busy, but I will post here when I have the results.  ]]></description>

<title>[HN7000S] Kaspersky and hnFAPMon</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20462754</link>
<description><![CDATA[I just got done uninstalling Norton, tired of their BS and installed Kaspersky. Since I have done this my hnFAPMon does not see the modem (HN7000s). Is there a setting that I am missing? Oh yes, it did work prior to this change. Also I did a complete uninstall of hnFAPMon, including the deletion of the old folder and reinstalled. Am I missing something?
Thanks Guys and Gals....]]></description>

<title>Hughes Needs To Fix Their Screwed Up System!</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20462007</link>
<description><![CDATA[As in their Bandwidth Shaping/Limiting/Usage and monitoring system. Today an ugly fap reared it's ugly face to our connection, a fap we didn't deserve.

Their screwed up usage software is claiming we used all of our bandwidth in an hour. Mind you this is impossible and I have provided an explanation as to why below:

We have the Pro-Plus plan, we have barely been using the system for the past few days except for browsing some light websites.

Well last night from 12AM to this morning at 11AM the modem remained off. The modem was turned on at a little after 11AM this morning.

From that time up until I was wrongfully fap'd all I was doing was browsing some light websites (A couple websites), at a little after 1PM I noticed the internet was running painfully slow and checked the usage page just as a precaution.

Sure enough we were fap'd for no reason at all and hughes screwed up system is showing we used 409 MB in an hour.

I was the only one on and the only one who's PC was on, however I wasn't downloading anything or doing anything bandwidth intensive and was only browsing a couple websites/forums and checking replies that had been posted.

I've checked router access logs which showed I was the only one on, not to mention or wireless is secure and encrypted.

I also checked to make sure I had nothing running such as updates or any downloads in the background.

After everything else was ruled out, I figured hughes screwed up system decided to throw a fap my way just for the spite of it.

Needless to say, I'm not very happy or pleased and wish true broadband would make it's way to my area. We've gone through enough bull**** with hughes the past year we've had them to fill the grand canyon. :mad:]]></description>

<title>[DW6000] HughesNet IT Reliably Unreliable</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20394685</link>
<description><![CDATA[I wish I had placed a bet.

HughesNet sent a recent email announcing an upgrade to their email service.  My opinion of HughesNet IT was fully confirmed by the fact that the email is not back up and working on schedule.

My opinion of their customer communication was fully confirmed by the fact they can't even have a consistent announcement of availability.

HughesNet Email of 4/23/08:  "Between 6:00 p.m. April 26, 2008 and 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time April 27, 2008, you will not have access to your Hughes.net email account."

"Customer Care" Website Announcement viewed on 4/27/08:

"Between 6:00 pm Eastern Time on April 26, 2008 and 8:00 am on April 27, 2008, customers will not be able to access Hughes.net email to perform any email activity."

It is now 11:25 am EDT and still no email access. 

I submit this as a HughesNet service "classic." 

I know that many use other services to provide email but I stubbornly continue to use HughesNet email and believe that an ISP should provide a competent email server.

I can only hope that they will provide me, as promised, with the means to disable their antispam and antivirus features.  The last thing I need is a HughesNet implementation of a filter that will screen out email without me seeing it.

Thanks.

<title>[HN7000S] finally done with Hughes</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20456533</link>
<description><![CDATA[Well, my modem went out for the second time.  The LAN connection stopped.  I called tech support and went through everything with them.  Need a new modem, AGAIN.  This time though, it is no longer under warranty.  They want me to spend $199 for a new modem.  Since my mother was at my house and her ATT aircard was just as fast.. if not more reliable than the satellite. I am going that direction.  I cannot believe hughes want support me.  They would rather loose my business than to realize that the hardware has a flaw.  My only downside now, is I'm losing my static IP.  I guess I am willing to. I'll be paying almost $30 less a month and DSL is just around the corner for us.  I would glady keep hughes until then, but the way customer support treated me... there is no way..]]></description>

<title>Hughesnet VS Verizon EV-DO</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20407703</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have been plagued with slowed speeds every day like a lot of you have been. I decided a few weeks ago to try out Verizon EV-DO. I live about 9 or 10 miles from the nearest Broadband tower, so I was very skeptical that I would even get Broadband Access where I live. The Verizon coverage map doesn't even show me to be in cell phone coverage, let alone Broadband. Anyway, I called and set up a 30 day trial. I also purchased a Wilson Omni antenna from 3G Store. When I first got it, I had to go to an area closer to the tower to activate it. I started out with speeds of 300 to 400 down and 150 to 200 up for the firt 2 weeks, then all of a  suddden I started getting 2 Bars of signal. (I was only getting barely 1 Bar to start with).
I can now receive speeds of 1100 down and 300+ up. I have decided to keep the EV-DO. I'm not jumping ship with Hughes just yet, I want to see what happens in the near future.

<title>[Installer] What is the best way to become an independent instal</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20454819</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi, I was wondering what the best way was to get hughesnet certified for installations.  Mainly I would just want to have the capacity under my belt for my personal use and to help out some of my neighbors.  I dont like relying on dealers or installers for all our problems.  I did a little googling on the matter and did not turn up much.  I do know that SB offers online training and cert tests, but I cannot find anything like that for HSN.  Any ideas?]]></description>

<title>[Installer] Different LNB&#x27;s on TRIA</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20443451</link>
<description><![CDATA[I installed a system on Horizons1/1390 and what ever I did I could not get the signal over 60. This was weired, because I did an install with the identical hardware and Sat/Transponder a week earlier just one mile away and got a signal around 88.

Today I went back to the system with the signal of 60 and changed the TRIA (same part number) with a new one, the only difference was the LNB on it and the signal was 88 right away without moving the dish.

The attached pictures:
LNB 1: the one I could not get a signal over 60 (made in China)
LNB 2: the one I put on today and got a signal of 88 right away (made in Taiwan)

Does anyone know if this difference in signal strength is related to the different LNB's?
PS: I already checked for any obstruction inside the feedhorn and as far I  can see down the wave guard. 

Thanks____Raminto
