Why is my up load and down load speed so slow?

Why is my up load and down load speed so slow? What is happening to your service? I can't call you people because I have lost my voice. This has been very poor service for about a week now. I am trying to watch short videos on Face book and they start and stop waiting to load. You all did have this fixed and I was very happy about it. I am not happy the problem came back. Please fix your service. Leona Todd

Hi Leona,

Welcome to the community and thank you for your post. We were able to find your account based on your community profile information, so we'll run remote diagnostics on your site to check the HughesNet equipment and ability to communicate with the satellite. We'll post back once we have an update for you.

To help us address your concern, please connect your computer directly to the modem and run some speed tests for us to evaluate. Please run a set of 5 speed tests 3 times over the course of a 24 hour period for us to properly evaluate your speeds. Your patience and cooperation is appreciated, and we look forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks,
Liz

I have been checking my speed as requested. Up Load is slower than the Down Load.

The speeds are looking a lot better. I will check them again tomorrow evening. It is past my bed time. Thanks for everything. If it still is slow I will send you another email.

Sorry Leona I saw this was posted under the HN9000 and posted the comment about those settings before I saw you actually have a HT1100 thats why I deleted it. the HT1100 does not have those readings in the same place.

Hi Leona,

Thank you for running the speed tests. So far, your speeds are as expected of your plan. Since you are connecting directly to the modem to perform the speed tests, does the performance change once you reconnect your router? In looking at your remote diagnostics, we think you may want to have a look at your router and router settings. Keep in mind that distance between your device and the router can affect speeds, as well as router settings. If you post your router model, we can help find some resources for your reference.

Thanks,
Liz

you can check mine out to while your at because my connection speed is .017 and I'm paying too much for This. 
Can't stream at all and when I do it uses up all of my data because it is always starting over and over.  I watched three shows on netflix and used up half my data for a month.

robinfmr, do not stream Netflix in HD, only SD or low definition. You are most likely over your allowance.

You can stream, within reason.  People stream in SD and LD.  700MB/HR and 300MB/HR, respectively.
