Again, Level 1 and Level 2 traffic is given priority over Level 3. Yes I also have HN SBS 3, actually since the 6000 modem. Only some are seeing a slowdown, my 2 years now with the 9000 modem has been great, only occasionally in congestion hours 950kb/s. Normal is 1440kbps.
For a 3 month period my/our speed was increased to 3.4-4Mb/s and was fun in the 5 hour free zone. I'm back to normal but many others still maintain the double+ speed.
Btw I've been selected to beta test Jupiter Gen4, quite an honor. Sorry can't and won't share as beta means be prepared to have some bugs, a fact with any beta. Wouldn't be fair to form an early opinion. Besides Excede also have cell G3 so no worries if Echostar 17 went down.
