Hi all,
“Web Acceleration Not Supported” is a normal condition. Hughes continuously updates configuration and technology to maximize user performance.

However, the vast majority of web content is now secure (HTTPS), so Web Acceleration has no benefit for most web browsing. Hughes is turning down the Web Acceleration components in certain areas to evaluate the performance impact, if any, as part of our normal network maintenance and optimization.

Is it affecting your experience at all? I haven't noticed anything different. Everything seems to be working for Danny too.
