    Dead HN7000S - 2+ Week Wait for new

    not making excuses, but heres usually what it boils down to... with everyone putting in 9000's nowadays, techs really dont have many 7000 repair modems floating around. the main reason is that installation companies must actually buy, and stock repair equipment. so if a company covers every...

    Using the new HN9000 in an RV Mobile Environment

    same here, and thats my point. i cant see how the average person would be able to get a hold of the noc everytime they move, right?

    Using the new HN9000 in an RV Mobile Environment

    im not really sure its practical. mainly, EVERY single time the dish is relocated (more than 500 feet? i think), the modem will need to be released by the noc for a relocation. more or less, once a system is registered, its "locked" into its designated cell. im dont beleive the average joe...

    HN7000S and Windows Vista

    what kind of pc (details are good)? ive seen a few issues with certain pc's running vista and the hn modems. another thing to check, out of curiosity.....when you scroll you mouse over the network icon in the taskbar, how many networks is it telling you your connected too?

    Multiple Modems on ATT DSL?

    a little out of my "main line" of work, but i dont believe thats possible. i think another modem would require another line. with 2 modems, it would make sense that there would be too much noise on the line?

    Will .98 m dish work for HOME account?

    i havent messed with a 6000 in a while, HOWEVER, just using the larger 98 antenna for rain fade and signal quality issues is absolutely fine. you should be able to use the 1watt transmitter from your 74m dish on the 98 without any issue. however, i cant remember, and im too lazy to go get one...

    Stuck on State Code 14

    there are only a few times when you would get a st14: 1) incorrectly input gps parameters when setting up idu, requires deinstall and re-input if all codes and gps coordinates. 2) bad odu. 3) now you say that these have been eliminated, the only other time i have seen this is when i was on the...
