Re: New to Gen5 but have issues
No error codes here, I may have to reinstall my browsers perhaps that will help 🤔 Yes, tech has gotten alot better but I still miss my unlimited data plan tho 😜 There is something to the experience of actual hard copy, except maybe the paper cuts 🩹4.3KViews1like5CommentsRe: New to Gen5 but have issues
I tried clearing my browser, made sure it was up to date, made sure windows etc was up to date, disabled wifi on modem, turned video saver off in hughesnet, ran connectivity tests, double checked network, proxy, and firewall and permission settings, rebooted, and dusted mt PC LoL 🙂 Funny side note, my San Id is so old and short that the hughes system doesn't recognise it and it took 2 days for the operator to figure out I was a customer, then I was told I have to do everything by phone or live chat cause the system dont like me 🤣4.3KViews0likes7CommentsNew to Gen5 but have issues
I am new to Gen5 and just upgraded from Gen4. I have been a customer for roughly 18 years (old Direcway) so I am not a novice to the quirks of satcomms. My issue is this.....my modem has been setup for roughly 5 hours and at 5:30 am EST I can't watch youtube on a hardwired PC, wifi disabled, system. I can't even get past the 10 second commercial to watch anything in most cases yet I can download a 150mb file in 5 seconds. I found a 1min 30s video that starts right up, I set it to 144p and nothing will buffer for (no joke) 10 mins. If I go to a webpage that has a video ad or a news vid that has to load, it stalls and wont finish loading the page. Does anyone know how to fix this? I never had this or any problem on Gen4 and this is quite frustrating and so far this is looking more like a downgrade.Solved4.3KViews0likes9Comments
