Your best bet is to wait until one of the HughesNet reps on this site addresses your situation next week. They're at the corporate level (different from the phone reps) and have more discretion to come up with different solutions. They're here M-F during business hours.
If they need information from you they will ask you to send them a PM, for privacy reasons.
I hope this gets resolved speedily for you.
Thank you. I spent over 3 hours today only to be told that our modem seems to be working now so there is nothing they can do to help. They are ignoring the fact that I called in last month and last week and they documented the modem wasn't responding. They kept saying it is weather related. Guess if you live in the north don't get Hughes Net. It is very frustrating to be in a do loop of their script.
It's possible they they can't/aren't allowed to do anything if they ping the modem and it shows everything's in order. But it'd be nice if there were good notes so they could see there's been issues.
The mods here will be able to do more for you; they may just send you a new modem to see if that solves the issue. The wait stinks, though.
I take it that when you're home the modem works because the heating's on?
Correct, when we are in the house and heat is on and above 50 degrees is works. You are spot on that since the modem was working in that moment of the phone call that they didn't want to act on the previous two long term outages of the modem. I finally got to a supervisor in advanced tech that offered to send out a replacement. I will be sure to post if that resolves the issue.
