| [HN7000S] New Software Release Had a reset last night. New software:
Software Date: Mar 5 2009, 18:44:43
Software Release: 5.8.0.49
Wonder what changes this will have in performance. The diagnostics page looks a little different. Time will tell.

| Re: [HN7000S] New Software Release No change here yet...still on 5.6.1.35. After our last update, we saw some glitches and bumps for a few weeks and then things seemed to stabilize and improve a little over performance pre-reset. Let's see what this one brings....

2 edits | Re: [HN7000S] New Software Release Well, lots of changes over the past 10 days. First, the Inroute Group change to 31 and 41 (from 11), then two nights later the new software. Everyone keep an eye on your Inroute Group to see if it changes with the new software, or a day or two prior.
Thus far, I'm not a happy camper with the change. Transmit errors wayyyy up from the 0.01% I used to have. Sometimes, in diagnostics in the five minute windows, it says 6% loss. The loss seems to come in "bursts" .. sometimes browsing with no loss, then out of the blue 300 or more failed transmissions.
Another change I noted a few weeks back is the Firewall, in the System Info said "Enabled", but clicking on Firewall revealed it as "Disabled". Now it says:
General Config Bad fragment check: Enabled
Ifc Validation Check: DISABLED
Management IP Address: 10.XXX.XX.XX
Under Policy Stats:
ACL Statistics
--------------
ACL is Enabled from the NOC Side
Total num of valid rules: 2
Total num Packets Received: 2859329
Total num Packets Dropped: 0
So, I'm hoping they "fine tune" things, as browsing is sometimes Very sluggish, and I am getting "Marginals" and "Bads" where I always had "Good" in Diagnostics. Don't think it's anything on my end, as all these changes seem to correlate with the time I started receiving so many Nak'd transmissions. (Edit): Timing applications are suffering. And, when doing online transactions, I sometimes encounter difficulty. At this time, until things improve, I'm afraid to do any business online.
Here's my stats, and they ain't pretty. The loss percentage is just the average. As stated, the five minute windows have shown as much as 6% loss.

| Prior to this update, I always had an Inroute Group of 11. Now I have two, 31 and 41. It sort of toggles back and forth. .. As well, I am noting an enormous amount of failed transmissions. I just ran HughesNet's speedtest three times after clearing stats and had 374 failed transmissions. .. Before this "change", my failed transmission rate was always in the neighborhood of 0.01% or better. Now it's running at near 1% at times. .. Anyone noticing anything similar?

| Yesterday evening my HN7000S was displaying heavy download activity. I turned off all the computers and finally turned off the router and the activity did not diminish. I checked useage this morning and it was about 205mb in that timeslot. Was this the update? And why wasn't I fapped? | |

| Re: [HN7000S] New Software Release The only thing answerable in your questions is that it was not the firmware update. That is relatively small, and doesn't show in usage.
A huge Vista SP2 at 345MB has been hitting a lot of people, but of course that would stop when you turned off your router, and definitely would FAP you if allowed to run.

| We got the new firmware night before last. Can't tell any difference in operation. It does seem that our signal strength has gone to hell today (57 vs. normal near 70) but I don't know that this has anything to do with the new firmware, nor do I care until/unless it affects speed or connect-ability.
I can say with confidence that the HN7000S modem upgrade I did this year (over the DW6000) has been a huge improvement with respect to operation in bad weather conditions. I used to lose signal if it rained at all but now it takes a thundercloud overhead to knock us out.

| Newbie here so please be patient. I too have experienced very slow connection speeds and speed tests. I am baffled by what is going on here when I pay so much for service. Having said this I have a HN7000s modem and have been with tech support several times to no avail. They have told me I have an open Port and it may be a virus causing this. So I will address that. The bottom line here is that we are not getting what we pay for for whatever reason. It could be that they are "throttling" or any other number of things. I don't think it is my equipment and if it is they should support getting that straight also.
I have a technical background but not familiar with all the terminology. So, if it is not a bother could people that post here and are in the know give more concise instructions and explanations to us newbies. We promise we are paying attention and will contribute when we can.
Thanks

| Last night a reset. Back to 5.6.1.35 for now. Wouldn't it be nice to know what's going on? .. Perhaps too many people having problems with the new update..heck if I know..but system thus far is performing MUCH better with the old firmware.

1 edit | Re: [HN7000S] New Software Release Several of my members at DatastormUsers are reporting the fallback to 5.6.1.35 (for HN7000S) or 5.6.1.19 (for DW7000).
My modem was on overnight, but the dish was not pointed at my assigned satellite. I repointed a short while ago, and the download began 4 minutes after lock and completed in about 2 minutes.
