Also my internet is extremely slow, many times if my husband is reading an email and I'm trying to watch a YouTube video the YouTube video won't even load and I have tried changing the channels through the service page given, I have turned off the modem for up to 5 minutes and reset the TV as well but nothing seems to be working? I'm paying a lot of money for something that hardly works?
There was an outage in some areas yesterday -- that may have been what was causing your internet to be out.
Have you run speed tests? They're required to have speed issues addressed in this community. To read about how to do the tests, see this post: https://community.hughesnet.com/t5/Tech-Support/Think-you-have-slow-speeds/m-p/110034#M74607
Oh thank you so much for taking the time out to leave this comment. I will check that out ASAP, thank you again.
Hopefully the reps here will do a remote check of your system and tell you if there's a problem there or if there is/was an outage.

Good morning Diananolast,
I'm glad you found the community, thank you for posting. I ran diagnostics last week and just now and they show the HughesNet system as operational. Last Wednesday there were brief outages in your area which have been addressed since then. Speed tests from the modem to our satellite also show 25+ Mbps in download speeds.
However, your network shows that a few of the connected devices have poor signal, and that can certainly contribute to a poor experience. Devices named alli, Diana-s-Galaxy-Tab-A, amazon-69033f453, LAPTOP-CLINT01, Samsung, and Z3351S have shown poor or fair signals in the last 2 weeks. Currently, LAPTOP-CLINT01 and alli devices on the 2.5 GHz network have a poor signal so try moving them closer to the modem to improve signal strength. Do this for the Samsung device as well which is currently on the 5 GHz network, but if performance doesn't improve, try switching it to the 2.5 GHz network.
Please let me know how it goes.
Your cooperation, patience, and understanding are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Liz
