Resolution for Connecting to Certain Websites / Xbox Connectivity (Gen 5)

Hello,

 

If you’re unable to access secured websites (URLs starting with “https”) or have gaming console online connection issues, our engineers have identified the root cause. The resolution is to disable UPnP (Universal Plug n’ Play) in the HughesNet WiFi modem settings, then rebooting. This applies to HT2000w WiFi modem users on Gen 5. Please follow the steps below:

 

1. Go to www.systemcontrolcenter.com

 

2. Click on WiFi Settings

3. Log into your WiFi Settings page
