Just received this note:
Good news, Russ. The beach is now in a frenzy to get appointments, so it's good that you are on the list. Until the 2nd tech is here, I don't see how Isaac will ever keep up. Stay in touch.

here is the ONLY problem so far...

it's so fast we are watching way more videos and
bigger webpages

before we would give up trying to download stuff and
would just "move-on"

we're burning gigs...

we already ugraded to the 25gig plan...
took 10 minutes using the chat service on the company website

this is the largest plan we can currently get...

we canceled hughes last night...had to insist that it was NOT on the billing period but NOW and they refund me money!!!
took 30 minutes on Skype...
that worked perfectly with the new service

I'm interested on if Hughes will quit charging you.

There are some people who finally changed their bank account so hughes wouldn't have access to it to deduct money - but maybe I did not hear the whole story, too. . . .

:bounce:YAAAAAY! to Osiris, as promised. Here's the email we received from our most EXCELLENT neighbors, Steve & Jane Springer,
who allowed the tech into our casita in PC to install Exede. "You now have a modem and Steve saw downloads of between 16-19.96. Isaac said you need to contact the main office to complete the account. " No More Hughes or Banda Ancha! Muchas Gracias for the service as promised and for Springers for doing way more than opening the door.

"the deal with the devil"

our internet is TOO fast!!!
webpages load completely every time...
this is a download and "data use"

we are "burning data" like a wildfire...

unless ALL apps on a smartphone or ipad are turned OFF you too will "burn data"

you will run out of your allocated "data" if you download movies...they take about 4gigs to complete

this system is GREAT!!! but you HAVE to budget your allocation or you'll slow to a snail OR pay through the nose.
anything big needs to be downloaded from 12am to 5am...you need to plan ahead

we had to upgrade to the 25gig plan as we are currently using 0.8 gig per day...

this SAT internet is FAST...
the service is averaging about 19mbps download
(hughesnet was 0.8mbps)

In Laguna Beach. My sister Doesn't want to switch and what ever this service is goes down as often as Hughes. And then you have to deal with the "Middle Eastern Techs".
B&S, I think I'm going to be in trouble with FAP too. I have two computers, 10 friends, printer, cameras, and a book reader. Of course most of the friends aren't here all the time but the 3 regulars are really good about usage. I think we'll learn to deal with it in a short time. It is going to be hard to figure out what to do with all the extra time I'll have waiting for for pages to load:?::lol: I hope the antenna install is beefy enough to handle our wind and Hurricanes.

Of course the slowness might be caused by the modem or interference on the wifi network. Have you tried a network cable to the modem?

Lots of troubleshooting info on the Inet.

travel pak


its true our internet is super fast 19 megas
and you may run out data soon if you dont start managing your usage
theres a free zone from 12 midnite to 5 am try downloading during that time haevy downolads also turning down the resolution on videos ill save you up data

but we have a option its called the travel pak
if you buy this one time it will help you alot when you waitest your internet data instead of going slow you just slow down to 5 mbps which is still fast

i think I need a more modern modem and so does russ...
better stop at best buy and get one russ

there are modems that cut off the internet after an allocated amount per day is used

with this I can assign a guest a password
when they "burn their data" they are done till 12 midnight

russ...it will only take one of your "friends" to say this movie is small hahaha...you'll be finished for the month

read this...best article I could find
and not too long and boring
http://raisedbyturtles.org/limiting-daily-bandwidth-on-home-...

google your router to see if it can be set
i'll bet not

I have 2 different lynksys routers and both are "dinosaurs"

you have 4 days to get a new router...drive over to "frys"
they have EVERYTHING

The other routers I have checked out don't have the external antenna connection I need. Thanks for the info. I will continue to search.
