    Is HughesNet business package REALLY and RELIABLY better?

    I have the Pro plan with my 6000... I think most of the problem is with Hughes. I've noticed lately that 99% of my problems are with their accelleration junk failing. and lately I've had a lot of problems since my contract ran out. I've put a power switch inline with my TX so I can reboot it...

    Transmitting Wi-Fi Signal from Nearest Town 7 Miles Away To Get High Speed Internet

    your point to point is misleading, and I think you guys misunderstood my point in that. doing a wifi dish and databahn which uses a Ku 2 way dish are 2 very different things Databahn is shooting a signal into outer space to a bird. like Direcway (which sucks)

    Transmitting Wi-Fi Signal from Nearest Town 7 Miles Away To Get High Speed Internet

    first you need line of sight, the dishes have to point into each other.... then throw lots of time and money into it! What you have to do is to set a quad element (or similar, I once used a cantenna yagi when I was trying BUD's) at the dish's focal point, aim very carefully, and depending on...

    Question for Hughes Expert.

    I called Direcway. The technician says "We don't cover installation, if it slips a little, that's what they do. We're not going to send someone out because of a little signal quality" So, should I call someone else at Dway? Do you know anyone by name up there?

    Question for Hughes Expert.

    Oh yea, the guy at Dway says that a repeak/repoint isn't under warranty as they don't warranty the installation.

    Question for Hughes Expert.

    I repeaked it the best I could by myself (a lot of running in and out) and got up to a 65. When the thing drops below 60 it quits transmitting. It will Tx Error me saying it is out of sync. This usually happens in the morning when there is dew on the dish or it rains. I used to not have this...

    Question for Hughes Expert.

    The guy who originally installed it is 3 hours away :) We didn't have a local dealer when I got mine. I hope the guys from the local dealer come to get it, they did a good job on my neighbor's system, he's pointed to SatMex5 and gets way faster downloads than I do. (Which upsets me...

    Question for Hughes Expert.

    I am on 83W, I used to get a 75 signal and it took one heck of a rain storm to take me out. Now I am sitting with a 60 signal and when it sprinkles I loose internet. Is a repeak covered by my warranty? Or should I request a repoint to SatMex5?

    viewing these forums takes forever on dway/hughs!

    the proxy settings for a pro account on a 6000 is your static IP, -1. i.e. xxx.xxx.xxx.xx4 is your static, xxx.xxx.xxx.xx3 would be your proxy. (You can get this address from your modem)

    It's possibly a combination of VBulletin, the db server, and the latency. The page loads a few seconds after the header for me as well.

    Directway is now HughesNET

    I'm pretty happy with the new HughesNET. I get 1.25 down, but still painfully slow up, but the CS is much better these days. I'd request a repoint to increase my upload speeds if I didn't get such good d/l. I have a DW6000, They called to try to up me to the 7000 and extend my contract, which I...
