I recently switched for DishNET to Exede via Viasat. I love the speeds compared to DishNET, but my one problem is that I get a TON of DNS errors now. I have the same personal router that I used with DishNET. The only major differance is that I also have the Exede voice as well hooked up to the...

Thanks! I have been looking for something to help monitor, but was not sure what the best one was. I will definitely download it.

Thanks! I didn't realize that these forums were connected.

Today my internet was VERY slow. I was trying to download a 1GB file, and it was downloading at 100kmps. I did a bandwidth test on speedtest.net, and it showed that my dl speed was 1mbps ul .5mbps. I rebooted, and cleaned up temporary internet files, and reset everything, and got it to 3mbps. I...

I only have the one computer at the moment. I did suspect malware, and have ran a few checks that came up with nothing. I did also suspect my router, and I am starting to think after all that is the culprit. I have to do some rewiring before I can confirm this, but that is what I am going to...

I have had Exede for 2 months now. I have already had them come out for service once because my internet is SO slow. I haven't gone over my usage this month at all. I actually have only used 2GB of my 10GB. Most of the time pages take FOREVER to load, and sometimes do not load at all. I have...

Ah, okay, I get it now. :)

This is promising. I always had that problem with cable anyway, so it sounds like this may work. Maybe by the time my contract is up they will have 6g and it will be even better. :)

Thank you! Now this is a helpful answer.

I don't understand how it is not judgmental. You all judged me and assumed I was a loser kid mooching on my parents just because I want to play online games. You guys also assume that just because I like to play a video game that I don't enjoy life, or the outdoors, which is far from the truth...

I do like being outside as well. This is the reason I moved to the country, my own house by the way. At night though, when everything in this little town is closed, and especially now that winter is around the corner, I do like relaxing and playing a game or two. Nothing wrong with that. If I am...

Okay, I know I have boo hooed enough about the data cap with Exede, but I am locked in with the for 2 years, and cannot help but miss WoW and other online games I played. I have mentioned before that I do live in the country, and satellite is my only option. Are my online gaming days over?? I...

I completely agree with you Texas-Rebel. I am now going into my second month of my LONG 2 year agreement with DISH and Wildblue, and I also feel like I was taken in by their marketing schemes. I mean, when the installer came to install my internet he pulled up a Youtube video to make sure...

I figured we wouldn't be able to play online MMORPGs such as WOW with the data limit, but the one thing that I am going to monitor are games that require you to log into a server even to play the games that are local on our machine, such as Windows Live games. This next month, I am not going to...

I do have my service through dish. I talked to 3 different people at Wildblue and only one of them knew that they had the technology to monitor. After talking to them all day yesterday and this morning they finally said they had a mistake and the restriction had been lifted. As far as my data...

Well I found out it was not my activity that used it all up. I started another thread about this. They are now claiming we downloaded illegal movies and that used it all up. They also locked my service because of it. I have never in my life downloaded a full copyrighted movie, so this has become...

I am going to hound them for sure. Unfortunately I am at work so I can't work on my computer, but I am sure that this is a mistake. I just don't know what I need to do to prove it and get my internet back. One thing that did concern me was when the tech was there fixing a problem I had earlier...

Well I wonder if this will get me out of my 2 year contract. I will be more than happy to leave Wildblue. These have been the two worst weeks of internet I have ever had since I started with them. It has been one thing after another.

I have a wireless router that is password protected. I live in the country with only 2 neighbors and the closest one is more than an acre away. I guess the only other option is that I was hijacked, but I don't see anything that showed that. The only movies I watched were blockbuster @ home but...

This morning when I didn't have internet I called Wildblue and they said the turned off our service due to downloaded copyright material. They claim that we downloaded some movies onto our computer. It is just my husband and I at the house and we don't do that. I ran an anti virus and it found...

Thanks Stargazer for the info! I just moved to the country and satellite is the only option for me unfortunatly. I read somewhere that I could risk having my service completely disconnected if I go WAY to far over. Should that be a real concern for me?

BTW I did not receive an email saying I went over. I called because I noticed a drop in speed and that is how I found out I was over.

I had Wildblue installed last week. I noticed yesterday and today my internet has been REALLY slow. I logged onto my account and checked my meter and found that I had already reached my 10GB limit for the month. This is the first time I have had a data limit with internet, so I was not sure what...

Thanks! I called them and they are coming back out to check the signal.

I am losing service with both, and the Blockbuster at home question I wasn't sure if it was related to my hopper or Blockbuster. Since I ordered everything though DISH, I am not sure where the issues originate. Just looking for a little help.
