Any known issue for Northern California today - 66K downloads under FAP
Any other users here in Northern California struggling to even connect and do simple emails or web access. Today, under FAP, I am getting sub 100K downloads. About same for uploads. It is like p...
Hi Thomas,
I just ran diagnostics on your site and it's working normally, it's just that the monthly data is depleted so speeds are reduced (currently seeing ~270k). Please keep in mind that while subject to the Fair Access Policy, these reduced speeds are further split up between all the devices on your network.
A few options available of course, can try limiting to one device to see if there's a noticeable improvement, using a data token, or waiting until the data reset date.

Dead again... argh. Two days in a row. Early this AM we were fine then boom... sub 100K downloads. Hughesnet, please assist. What seems to be going on with my connection. In FAP, this AM had a normal download of 800K... then whack, down to 200s.. then double whack... 98K.
Please inform and thanks in advance.

Liz, so 26k and 41k are OK speeds under FAP?
Also, if one device as you say, 270k is acceptable too?
Curious.
See my tests I just did...

Can you let me know if 87k... with only 1 computer connected to the Hughesnet Router and both 2.4 and 5Ghz turned off on the Hughes modem so only 1 device is connected... is a good speed and what I should be getting under FAP.
Right now I have this setup above and gett under 100K.
Please let me know.

That 87k was just run at 12:45 PST.

I will leave my setup in this config for the next few hours if you can check.
Seems really really really low even under FAP with only 1 computer connected and wifi turned off.
Thanks

I will also add I can barely get on this site and trying to run tests at testmy site stalls every other run so sometimes it starts a test and stalls... I have to start all over... and then still see very slow speeds.. slow speeds sub 100K and at best in mid 100s.
Something seems very off even under FAP which I am very familiar with. Always in it but normally I still get 500K or above... sub 100k something is off here in my opinion even with 1 device connected.
Thanks
TJ
