Average modem power consumption in watts?
I'm off grid and I need to know the average modem power consumption in watts when not doing much uploading or any gaming at all.
- Good morning,
The engineer pointed me to this page in the Jupiter install guide on pg 15, http://customer.kb.hughesnet.com/Documents/1039649-0001_c.pdf the rated power consumption of the HT1100 is 46W. That's all the info we have as far as power usage.

Timothy,
Power consumption is not relative to what you are doing from a usage standpoint. It only relates to providing the necessary power to run the components of the modem.
It is stated in the specs for your modem. (e.g. - the HN9000 power supply is rated at 46 watts.) So I would suggest using that number (depending on your modem) for your calculations.
