Sending and Recieving Faxes
I am curious as to why we are not told about sending and recieving faxes.
Ihave noticed that Hughes Net blocks our abillity to send and recieve faxes.
I I were a deaf person would the TTY be then blocked as it emits the same tones?
And why were told by the tech installing we can Send and Receive faxes?

Good morning Lee98611,
I see you're new here, so welcome to the community! Thanks for posting, I'm sorry that the installer misspoke about the HughesNet Voice capabilities. Normally if there's a discussion about faxing with the HughesNet Voice service, the sales or customer service rep should explain that HughesNet Voice does not support fax machines.
Our online FAQ and legal site states our incompatibility with fax machines as well:
I'm sorry for any inconvenience, I hope this clears things up.

- Ok I understand that .
Second question, why can I not access http://192.168.99.1.
Or its admin section?
I have tried the above adress but it appears it has either been changed or I have been denied access ?
I never got the instructions manual from the tech on this device.
I went to :http://www.innomedia.com/documentation-center/
To get the following documents. .I could not find them on your site.

This is how I was made aware of the admin features.Good morning Lee98611,
That address isn't something we use. When you activated your HughesNet Voice service, this page should have been a starting point for getting activated:
http://voice.hughesnet.com/activate/innomediaJ2.cfm
On that page is the guide for your HughesNet Voice service: http://voice.hughesnet.com/activate/docs/InnoVoiceGuide.pdf
Page 25 is where the instructions start for setting up your HughesNet Voice web self care portal, from which you can manage your Voice features. It's a separate web portal within the HughesNet Support Center. Since you're already posting here in the community, you're already regsistered for the support center, so skip to step 5 to register for the HughesNet Voice web portal.
The support center has changed a bit since this guide was published, so the screenshots may look a bit different. Please let me know if you have trouble finding where to manage your Voice service.
I have VOIP service with ATT uVerse and I can send and receive faxes with it. Why can't Hughesnet offer the same service. I understand the technology aspect of the problem but what do they know that Hughesnet doesn't?

Physics. That's what they know and what they deal with. The high latency inherent to satellite internet hurts the ability to fax with their VOIP service.
