<title>Found out my Dish isn&#x27;t grounded. What to do.</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26882902</link>
<description><![CDATA[Had a Direct TV tech tell me my Hughesnet Dish wasn't grounded and that it was getting moisture on it. We were just having small talk and he looked over at the Hugesnet Dish and told me that.

I've had Hugesnet since June of 2011. What should I do? Should I try and ground it myself or tell Hughesnet to ground it. Will they charge me for something they should have done in the first place?

How does this effect my internet speed? I've noticed my internet has been getting slow alot lately. Possible static built up? I honestly know nothing of grounding.]]></description>

<title>[HN7000S] Possible sources of red Xs?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26877913</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm getting red Xs quite a bit in areas such as uplink queuing, web acceleration n, and web acceleration I.  It's not hour after hour on any of them, and they happen whether I'm browsing or not.  I get peak browser connection limit reached with numbers that range from 0-5.

Web browsing is bad any time except the middle of the night.  If I try to download a file, more often than not it will download at a speed somewhere between 0.5 kB/s - 2 kB/s, with frequent drops to 0.

I'm just trying to find out if there's anything I can check out on my end.  I have a good signal...82.  Every once in a while I get a day where everything works at a speed of about 300 kbps, which I would be absolutely thrilled to get on a regular basis.

I've talked to HN CS many times in the past and I do everything they say, but in the end they always say it's the fault of my computers and that I should have them all serviced, including the one I had literally just bought and hooked up.  ]]></description>

<title>[HN7000S] HN download speeds on East Coast</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26851755</link>
<description><![CDATA[I get 1200kbps in the morning and around 150kbps download speeds in the evening according to the hughes speed test. http://consumer.performancetests.hughesnet.com/
Is this typical of what others get?  My average may be around 300-500kbps depending on time of day but mostly on the lower side except very early AM.  There are periods when it's even worse, like 3 day weekends, mostly Sunday evenings.  There are a few days in the year when hughes is nearly unusable, but few and far between.  It always seems to be around 1200kbps during the 2-7am free period.  I can download about 630MB per hour then with my download manager.

I'm being temped by the exede, but they don't have a free period and not sure about their policy on what happens if you go over your limit.  I called but wasn't explained.  The speeds look incredible though.  Plus it's another $380 for installation and parts and I reckon I can just throw the hughes equipment in the trash.

Subscriber on HN since early 06, no other option here, lived with dial up until then.]]></description>

<title>[HN9000] Anyone familiar with MacBook Pro laptops?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26864172</link>
<description><![CDATA[We recently purchased a MacBook Pro (early 2010 model) and every time its turned on it eats up our data allowance. When just sitting idle at the desktop, it east about 1MB every 2-3 minutes. When we open the Mail application to check the e-mail account we set up on it it will eat up about 3MB every couple minutes. When browsing the internet through FireFox, just going to simple websites like Ebay eat up about 10-15MB every minute or 2. I have never used a MacBook Pro and I am not familiar with Apple products. I don't know why or what could be causing this to happen but I guess it has something to do with stuff downloading in the background. Keep in mind this MacBook is preowned but it was wiped clean with a factory default restore, and we have not put any software or new apps on it yet.

Does anyone know what I can do to make sure anything including updates aren't randomly downloading in the background and what may possibly be causing this if that's not the case?]]></description>

<title>Does Hughesnet work on a moored boat?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26789012</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm thinking about installing sat internet on my 64' houseboat.  While I have no illusions about it working while underway, I'm wondering if there's anyone with experience that could tell me that it may work while moored at the pier?  IAW, could the connection stand some gentle rocking of the antenna?]]></description>

Looks like you can bank 2 months worth of unused tokens :)
Still waiting for my rollover on the HN7000s though :(

<title>[HN7000S] Can&#x27;t Open Router Setup Page</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26816622</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a HN7000S modem, D2 controller in my motor home.  I just replaced my Linksys router with another Linksys router.  I have gotten it to work and connect to the Internet wireless, but I am not able to find and open the the Linksyst router setup page or the DataStorm setup page.

I have made contact with Linksys but they weren't very helpful.  I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who can help me resolve these two issues.

Thanks :(]]></description>

<title>Thanx for the help</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26834833</link>
<description><![CDATA[Thanx to everyone for all the great help over the years. I have millenicom ordered and see no problem getting it to work so I will be cancelling my HN account after a long 10 years by the end of the week, barring any problems. The downloads will go a bit slower but the surfing will be better and gaming will work and when my area gets lit up by LTE then the speeds will be better as well. Again Thanxs for all the help and especially thanx to Don for HNfapalert, it has been a great companion program for my HN service. I will haunt this forum for a while at least and offer my assistance where I can and who knows, verizon might screw things up and Jupiter might make miracles happen and HN could get my service back someday.

<title>Anyone switching to exede?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26844339</link>
<description><![CDATA[Got advert from exede yesterday.  $50/month UP TO 12Mbps, 7.5GB monthly data allowance.  For $80 you get 15MB/mo which is comparable to Hughes Pro plus at 1/10 the speed.  If Hughes would run at their 1.5Mb speed all the time, I wouldn't worry about it, but it goes way down in the evening and weekends and once in a while it's just not useable.  Costs about $380 for installation.  It looks real tempting.]]></description>

<title>[Installer] Firefox and Hughes Registration server</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26839190</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm used to see this screen while trying to connect to the registration server. On my XP laptop I just click "Add Exception..." and then it goes through.
But on my new Win7Pro machine I can click "Add Exception..." and nothing happens and I'm stuck there. I disabled all FF Add-ons and also turned off AVG and still no luck.
Any ideas? Thanks

<title>New Satellite Internet Technology?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26835544</link>
<description><![CDATA[I heard that there is going to be a new technology in satellite internet that will greatly increase speeds? It's supposed to be faster than the typical HughesNet, Wildblue etc. 

Does anyone know anything about this? 

I only saw a short snippet about it on some tech blog once and hoped someone could shed some light on the subject.

<title>How does HN assign IP addresses?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26833981</link>
<description><![CDATA[A friend from WV asks: quote:I change the default location preference in my yahoo pages and other news and weather sites to show my geographic location. But occasionally I go there and it's been changed to some place in Texas. I've never been to Texas. Someone is hijacking my pages. What do I do?

I know how geolocation works, also how browser preferences are saved, but was only able to speculate since the PC is in WV, and I'm not. So I have a couple of questions about how HughesNet does their IPs.

1. If a router is connected to the HN box, is there enough router activity to keep the connection alive without the laptop connected?
2. How long of inactivity does it take to force a disconnect?
3. When disconnected, how fast does it take to renew the connection between box and head end (not between router and laptop)?
4. What kind of churn is there in the WAN IP address assignments? (I'm spoiled by FiOS' almost static addressing where DHCP address will persist for months).
5. Are all Hughes Net addresses geolocated to Texas?

I tried to explain to her there is nothing going on there (pages not hijacked) but can be definitive if I know how HN works.

I have asked her to log dates and times and results from www.whatismyip.org. Pending her reply, I thought I'd ask here.

Thanks.]]></description>

Im pretty familiar with most of the Hughesnet Adv Options and terms.. I have not been able to find a topic reguarding BW allocation percentage.
Im assuming its how much BW i get while on? Casue there is others on the gateway ect. So BW has to be %'d to allow fair share of BW? or if that's not the case, Can someone explain it to me.

Normaly my BW allocation percentage is around 50-60 From 1-9 EST in Morning, Then drops overtime the closer i get to Peak Hour.. Yet past few days it has been like 5-9%..  The 14 ATM is during the Non-Fap Times.. Which is strange. I have never seen it this low.

Thanks in advance]]></description>

<title>Hughesnet Customer Care Website errors all day</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26828215</link>
<description><![CDATA[Since yesterday I have been trying to do 1 simple thing and that is login to my Hughesnet account and update my payment information. Little do I know this simple task would turn into a headache I would quickly regret. Since yesterday, I have been getting "The connection was reset" error pages in FireFox anywhere from after trying to login to my account to trying to access the page to update my information in my account. But thats not even the big problem here. The real problem is that when I finally get to the update information page, it tells me that I cannot leave the Card Type field blank. Well here is the problem: THERE IS NO CARD TYPE FIELD! 2 customer service representatives insisted that this happens because of wrong settings in FireFox. I even tried doing this in Internet Explorer and nothing. Since no one at Hughesnet seems to recognize this problem, (which when it comes to them getting the customer's money you would think every error and bug under the sun would be known and addressed by now) I have to call them to have them login to my account and update my payment information. This means I have to give my card number and information to someone I don't know through the phone. I don't want to do this and I just want to know what is going on here.

Help? :'(]]></description>
