I received this after trying to register for a Forum to get help partitions on my Ubuntu computer. A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
@xxxxxx@users.sf.net (after RCPT TO): 550-Message rejected. Your IP (69.168.97.48) has been flagged for sending SPAM 550-by the UCE Protect Level 1 blocklist. For more information, see
550 http://www.uceprotect.net/en/rblcheck.php . At least every 3 months this is a problem can Hughes find an email admin to correct?? Larry

Mark, I'm running Linux/Ubuntu 19.10 native. The gateway is in Ashburn, VA, that doesn't seem efficient, I would think there is plenty of chances for 1 second to slip in. Satellite handshaking protocol that's not the modem but the OS, I've always thought the new versions of Ubuntu 13+ were a little quirky nothing I every put my finger on. Gabe, if everything looks normal, IMO that's an aw shucks, but what do I know. I'll mark this solved. Thanks for the effort, Larry

Darn it is in Libre Office Writer I didn't even think that you wouldn't be able to open it. I can open Word files. I'll fix it in the Morn I seem to have lost the file, I tried to save it as a Word file and it disappeared.

Project went better than expected I started with traceroute google.com no options. Then I ran traceroute with option w10 a 10 second wait for ICMP a we bit of change. Next with w15 and t 16 big difference. I probably shouldn't have added the t 16 option so I reran the previous with w10 not the same results. I thought there might a change in type of service or something because 8 consistently falls out. I read the link on Latency that was posted so I added a few lines from a ping of google.com. Here is the link; https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kSK6840PO5XE6Wf0CT5Gx6ljeD_KHKFt/view?usp=sharing The man page for traceroute is here; https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J3aXZtdHy6jHNB4jM7dOWD3f6h7vIVO0/view?usp=sharing I don't know that I can add more but there certainly seems to be enough delay present to affect speed. Any for further suggestion for additional work with traceroute gladly accepted. Happy New Year!

Thanks, Mark, for the re-enforcement of known holiday problem, I'm usually one to get things done in the most expeditious manner and this project maybe longer than that. I have Traceroute installed and preliminary indications are that packets are not getting a return ICMP and dropping connections which I would expect. if high net traffic is adding to an already existing problem. I have the man page print out so I'll see if there is an option to compensate.

The improvement was short lived though occasionally it does show. After running the test again there was a connection error and then a quick reconnect I want to believe there is more going on than I know. I will run the latency test you provided the link to what ever I can. The is another LTS version 20.04 I'll fix 19.04 first. later

I wasn't sure about the latency data but I threw it in. I just upgraded to Ubuntu 19.10 and the downloaded started off good but deteriorated as the download progressed. I just ran a speed test and it is not that far off from the best an almost 30% improvement since I posted this msg. Thank you

I think I have everything per instructions, my OS is Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. What ever you need I'll get. This is the Download test at 25mb everything with the laptop identifier is no WIFI; https://testmy.net/quickstats/LGriffin The latency seems to be all over the scale but the last bunch I ran were all between 20-45%, but I have seen it as high as 97%. https://testmy.net/latency Thanks Larry

My service went out about month ago and when I checked Status at - http://192.168.0.1/#!/home/status it said the cable was bad. I checked my cable connections and rebooted the modem. I checked Status again and was told that the receiver was bad OK that can be checked by calling customer support. I called customer support and got the usual accent (though not bad) answered all the usual security questions twice. When I finally got to an agent I asked to have my receiver and modem checked and he said he would and there a bit of a pause. When he came back on the phone he asked what the problem was and I told him internet was down. He informed me that a repair would have to come out. I informed him that I had the express repair (I did have just removed it) because it was going to be 3-4 days before the repair man would be able to do the repair. The cable had just been repaired 2 months earlier and it was bad again(?) cable shouldn't go bad unless damaged. I live in a motorhome and from the satellite dish to the motor home there is about a 60' run which I placed in PVC pipe that still left about 10-15 feet unprotected. I have a 175lb dogged that is 10+ years old and not too frisky there was no sign that the cable had been chewed on. Since I had not gotten an answer to my original question about a bad receiver, multiple questions about the dog, no express repair service, and $125 for the repair I decided to do it myself. I ordered preassembled RG6 cable on line went to the local ACE hardware and bought PVC and 18awg solid copper wire for the ground. Prior to my replacing the cable my speed test were 225- to 2800 now I have only on test out of 7 under 3000 not a significant difference but I'll take what I can get especially when I save a C note.

Hey Professor I agree with you 100% period I think that the only thing you may have left out is professionalism. I was on contract with Unisys in the early 90s' before they closed their PC division I got to know the email admin who explained some problems he had to deal with SPAM among other things. He actually had to deal with two mail systems, the one he started with at the company the Unisys bought to start the division and windoze email, he did manage both successfully he worked at it. Professionalism is taught (specifically), you are not born with it, you acquire it. I was on a PC Helpdesk contract with a company that had acquired multiple other companies to become one the largest electronic assemblers in the business. There was as many IT departments as there were companies that had be bought. There was as many supposed 'known' solutions to user complaints as merged companies. I also heard that complaints were not being resolved in a timely manner. As I tried to work through the Known solutions for validity I found that very little being done to correct the issue, little was known what was being done to meld the IT departments. The unfortunate part was that others in the dept, almost all, accepted the solutions as valid and had no time to consider other wise. my rant for the day. I'm running Linux/Ubuntu as my OS, Firefox for browsing, and Thunderbird for email all on automatic update. I've also learned to watch URLs and TID bits for deviant behavior so I hope I'm not part of the problem.

I haven't had to consider that the modem is my IP as it is also the router. That was my thought also that the Hughesnet email server email account on the server had been hacked and was generating SPAM.I don't know what the hughes email administer has to do to correct the problem but it has been on going for a few weeks. I was able to get my mailing list back, but the off shore customer service at eTrade was totally clueless as to what the problem was for not being able to get email delivered to my account. The only solution to get email delivered again from eTrade is to try to contact my broker in Sacramento for help but can't do that till hughes no longer shows up on SpamHaus. Thanks for your help.

On 10/26/18 I reported that my email address was being rejected because the IP address 172.58.27.124 was a SPAM generator and blacklisted. The problem is back; "Bad Request Your web browser has tried to signup to a Mailman list, but your computer's IP address is listed on the Spamhaus Exploits Blockist. These requests are blocked to prevent abuse, because they are usually sent by "bots" instead of a human. Please try signing up from a different computer." it is also being rejected by eTrtade as of 10/14/19. Can this be fixed? Larry

I just checked as smtp.hughes.net clears every RBL. https://bgp.he.net/ip/69.168.97.48#_rbl Also, I hope you realize that the problem is not HughesNet generating spam, but customers with computers containing computer viruses, that came from clicking on spam emails... It's a massive problem that's out of control everywhere, not just HughesNet. I'm well aware of the problem of malware and spam having worked as PC Tech or on the Helpdesk for many years. It is a 24/7 problem to stay ahead. I was surprised at the number of sites that maintain blacklist of knownm problems with spam. The spam problem is not entirely malware it can also be attributed to how the mail server is setup. I looked at your link and then compared it to the link I provided which hasn't changed much since I posted. I would like to hope that you are using more than one site. Some sites will even check the mail server setup when the IP is checked and notify of discrepancies. I'd be more than happy to try and find that site again. This is the first time in 25 years that I have had persistant problem with returned mail.

A few weeks ago email to my bank was returned as undeliverable. I checked the return delvery and found an entity that had checked my email and found that it had been blacklisted for spam. I then called customer service ranted on them that this need to fixed NOW. It even appeared to be fixed, unfortunately I have one particular gmail account that my email is being blocked. If I go to http://multirbl.valli.org/lookup/69.168.97.48.html I find that there are still multiple sites that have hughes.net listed as a spam generator.

It turns out that since the modem upgrade was originally started on the upgrade plan it had to be finished on the plan. It was delivered by Zack a World Wide Tech. Since installation there has been an increase in speed enough to be noticeable. The connections have improved but I still get an occasional erroe and have to do a retry. I probably need to upgrade this laptop since it doesn't connect at 5G to the modem wifi. Thanks o all for the Help, Larry

Reggie, it is not so much the physical address as it being able to track it, which didn't work also. I can ship it to the autobody shop. Thanks for the help/post. Best Larry

I checked the email notice from Natural Partbners with their UPS tracking number and then tracked the number. It appears they are using service from UPS named Mail inovations. I google that and came up with upsmailinnovations com. I couldn't connect kept getting a reset error that I'm hoping maybe corrected with the new modem. Again I'll be happy to work with a Rep.

I don't care how it gets shipped as long as I get it. My physical address has a mailbox on the street in an industrial area and is searched by the local meth addicts regulary.That is why I have the PO Box. The last couple of deliveries UPS made to my storage locker. UPS didn't leave a delvery notice as per their manual. FedEx and UPS have both made deliveries to my Post Office Box. I'll forward an with email with the PO Box tracking number. I don't think a 3rd party was involved. The part that really fouled things up was that I wasn't able to track. The URL that I was given to track was "https://www.upspostsaleslogistics.com/cfw/login.screen" this not the usual UPS URL to track neither was the number. Kept getting the error msg that the tracking number was bad and I double checked that with customer service. BTW customer service has been great through out the hassle. UPS needs to step up they are usually good but I think sales got involved. 😉 In any case I'm willing to work with the Reps to get this done. I'm going to be on the web more than usual and a little extra speed would be nice. The URL for home/status is excellent. Best Larry In anycase

I want to upgrade my gen4 ht1100 modem to the Gen5? One was placed on order for me a couple of months ago but UPS could deliver to a PO Box,,,,BS. I have a vendor that regularly delivers to my PO Box. Not only that but the email that I got that it was shipped gave some off the wall URL to track that did not work. Is there some way I can buy it and have it shipped to my PO? Thanks Larry
