Why would I even notice something like this?
Forum Discussion
kitnbob, actually, I have bought most of my tokens. I still have some complimentary tokens saved from before Gen 4, but I've also supplemented my token collection with purchases.
I still have a bunch of prepaid and free tokens that are unapplied. Don't even remember how I got them.
Those never show in the Usage Meter until you go to buy some and hit "Use".
What I'd do, and I wish I had done with my own, is leave at least some of those tokens right where they are. What I mean is don't add all of them to the Token Bytes Available by clicking on the Use button next to the 9 Prepaid and 6 Free tokens. That way, you can decide whether to use your token data or go into FAP, though the 3000MB that you already do have banked would have to be used (automatically) before going into FAP. For most things, FAP speed would be fine for me, and I would only need full service speed for streaming or download a large file, for which I could then add some token data to the Token Bytes Available by clicking on "Use" next to them. But, I made the mistake of clicking "use" on all of my tokens, so I can't control their usage that way now. If I run out of Service Plan Data my tokens are going to be automatically used and I will never go into FAP until every single MB of token data is utilized. :( Not that I want to have to do either, but I'd rather be able to choose whether to use tokens or go into FAP if I ever run out of my service plan data.
That's just an idea.
Thanks Gabe. I planned to leave them right where they are. Maybe they will reproduce, clone themselves, Multiply!!!
Token - Free (500MB) Token - Free (500MB) We dont even Know if the six little Token - Free (500MB) Token - Free (500MB) Tokens are the same 3GB that have been already awarded to me because Token - Free (500MB) Token - Free (500MB) of the satellite outage of Jan 2 this year.
It might have been a Data Token - 3 GB (3000MB) There are also 9 more little Token - Prepaid (500MB) in the ADD playpen. Heck, they might morph into something big. Data Token - 10 GB (10000MB)
Ya never know :smileyembarrassed:

I remember that from Gen3 I couldnt use the "Status Meter" app
had to go to home.myhughesnet and to my surprise I had six or eight accumulated . Never bought any.
I never upgraded my plan to Gen4. Three or four months ago, I just skipped it and upgraded to Gen5.
and then the app changed names to Usage Meter. and All My Tokens were gone. ("your New plan dosent support "complementary tokens")
So I have been paying attention to my warnings as GabeU has :smileywink:
Is there a place to set the time on the SCC? Mine is 5 hours ahead. (I hadn't noticed the 24 hour clock, but I'm used to that so it's not a problem).

No. The SCC is on UTC for everyone. Having it on peoples' own time zones would/could cause too much chaos when it comes to many aspects of, not ony the modem itself, but tech services.

Ive been looking all over for where the tokens are hiding. I had to laugh at the hiding places GabeU Found.
I found some more HERE..
MarkJFine is right. Never show themselves . I wonder how long they'll hide there.. :smileyhappy:
They're not in Here...Wow! I see 9 more hiding HERE
