New Gen 5 owner in Northern California (slow as molasses)
Hi, new Gen 5 owner in Northern Calfornia, near Sacramento up in the foothills. Service installed yesterday. Slow very slow speeds. Called tech support at Hughes today and they said they will esca...
My repoint to ES17 is done. Promising for sure.
As speeds can always go up and down on a whim, I will ride this for a week ro two before I say it is fixed for sure but apepars we should be good to go.
Before the installer came over I had a about 1Mbps down.... and after, they are 24 and 17Mbps so far.
What appears to have suffered in the switch back to ES17 is uploads so far. I was getting better 2Mbps before the installer came over and now getting between 800K and 1Mbps. I can live with that. ;-)
So... so far so good. Thanks Hughes for getting things back on track.

Tomorrow if it starts slowing down, can you avoid pulling the plug and run tests and let us know what happens over time? Get 2-3 days of that if it continues, and attempt 2-3 days of removing power and inform us of the results...
Hi C0RR0SIVE, I will be able to do that today but I head out tomorrow afternoon to get my Geek down and attending a yearly Amiga (remember Commodore Computers from the olden days) Computer Faire. I have been using computers since the 70s so enjoy my retro Atari, Commodore, and Amiga systems from days gone by. ;-)
But when I get back I will try this. Thanks for the note.
