moving my internet modem to a new location

Hi, I have a new home in my rural community and am needing to move my modem a short distance from its current location to my new home. The current distance from my dish to my modem is about 100 ft - and i am needing an additional 100 ft of cable installed to attach from my new location to the dish. I just need additional cable installed and my modem moved to the new location - right? Am i understanding correctly?

 

Thanks!

    The maximum distance for the coax is 125 feet, so you'll actually need to have your service moved to your new location.  

     

    Whether the new home has a new address or the same address, you should call HughesNet's moving service.  The info page is here.
