    Two things I would try...

     

    1.  Clear your Chrome browser cache, then close all open browser windows.  Then open a new browser window and try your email again.  

     

    If that doesn't work, do the following...

     

    1.  Clear your Chrome browser cache, then close all browser windows. 

    2.  Unplug the HughesNet modem from the power outlet.

    3.  Bring up the Command prompt.  Type, without the quotes, "ipconfig /flushdns", then hit enter.  And yes, there is a space between the g and /.  

    4.  After the flush completes, close the Command prompt and shut down your computer.

    5.  Plug the HughesNet modem back in.

    6.  After waiting for at least five minutes, which will give the HughesNet modem time to be fully up and ready, start your computer and try accessing your email again.

      We forgot to add: if nothing works, kick the modem around a few times. LOL

      Good to hear you can get to your email again!

      I'm glad it's up and working again.  Hopefully it was just some sort of temporary glitch and you don't see it again.  

       

      I'm not really sure what the "my hughes.net is out of date" message could be.  Being that it's hughes.net you may very well be right, as in it being related to your email.  If/when you see it again, I would try to get a snapshot of it, as the reps or others may have an idea of what could be causing it. 

       

      What you jokingly said you did with your system reminded me of when I was working as a heating and A/C tech.  We used to say, "If it doesn't fit, kick it, push it and shove it til it does."  :p 

       

      And thank you for the compliment.  It truly is appreciated.  :)
