    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.

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
