To help everyone QUICKLY and EFFECTIVELY a TICKET NUMBER or ESN (Serial Number) is REQUIRED. NO SANs.

It would also be nice to add this to each reply as well.

- Christopher SanNew MemberSure, would help Hughes-Net Rep's, if they did !!
- Geoffrey LeachSophomoreI think I understand the reasoning behind this, but let me add a "but".
It's been several years since I had the dubious pleasure of interacting with tech support, but from what I read here it seems likely that not much has changed. That is, several hours to get a ticket. It seems to me that this list is a way to avoid the wait (and aggravation).
So, what about a web page that collects the necessary information -- questions that a rep should ask, and a description of the problem. A ticket could be generated and the result posted (optionally!) to the list. Perhaps this could reduce the number of all-caps posts? - Christopher SanNew MemberYeah i remember ,saying san number instead of ESN numbers, Sorry !!

For those that don't know where to find their ESN:
Open a browser, enter 192.168.0.1 into the address bar:
If ever you have to post a screen shot of something that has your SAN (DSSxxxxxx) in it open the screenshot in an editing program like Microsoft Paint and user the "eraser" or erase your SAN.
- BirdDogAssistant ProfessorLol, sticky. We've been asking for that for a couple years at least.
- AmandaModeratorSo have we :)
- BirdDogAssistant ProfessorSo Amanda's powers are limited? I'm devastated. :)
- AmandaModeratorOur "Easy" button broke.. Guess it's time to order a new one from the satellite fairy !
Jokes aside, we're trying to work on an alternative until GetSatisfaction implements a sticky function.
Amanda - ReggieTeaching AssistantCan they add a notice on the page. So costumers see the notice before they take the screenshot.
- AmandaModeratorHi Jezra,
I've already implemented this in the sidebar you've mentioned.
" If this is your first time here, we recommend reading our Tips for Posting in the Community "
Perhaps it is not strong enough. #6 covers caps.
Thanks
Amanda
