HT2000 System Control Center firmware bug

[MarkJFine]

Hadn't seen it mentioned anywhere so I thought I'd just drop this here so it doesn't get lost:

Not sure if this is just me, but it seems there might be a small bug in the modem firmware (version: WIFI_3.4.3.33). When it builds a page to display it is missing a bang (!) after the pound sign (#) when it creates any internal routing links.

For example, you should be able to query any of the individual hours in the Hourly History display by clicking on any one of them. Except, the link it creates is something like
    "http://192.168.0.1/limited.html#/diagnostics/curr_hour_history/55"

instead of
    "http://192.168.0.1/limited.html#!/diagnostics/curr_hour_history/55"
so the link fails and goes back to the main page for anything you click on.

Simple workaround is to right-click, copy the link, paste link into the address bar, add the bang back after the pound sign, then hitting return. It's annoying and cumbersome, but it does work.

Anyone else come across this? If so, can this please be passed to the engineers for the next version?

Good morning Mark,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention and sharing your workaround. I've sent your post up to our devs.

I have noticed it, but figured Hughesnet didn't want customers being able to poke around things that would typically cause them to freak out...

Hadn't thought of that, but yes, the really detailed status logs have been inaccessible since the 9000. They had to go and make it boring for us exploratory, engineering, poke-around everything, "oh, what makes this work" types. And probably rightfully so! lol
