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.

Sorry, but you consider this place a joke, remember? You still have yet to perform the necessary troubleshooting steps outlined in your topic.

Saw that. Good catch... :)
How many customers have we had with bad computers, hmmm...
Lol... as a native NYer and one that's familiar with Arsenal Twitter, I should have a PhD in snarky hyperbole recognition by now.
The first time he said it I thought he was just trying be cute. The second time I think he actually thought it was a symptom.
Still complaining rather than doing what was asked to start the process of fixing the problem, eh? How's that workin' out for ya?

There's a slow connection, all right.
