I think you are probably on 990, and will find that your modem is switching back and forth from 990 to 999, as that is a current switchover that Hughes is making. There will be a normal period of instability as the primary/secondary issues resolve themselves over a few weeks. 999 is only 10Msps compared to the 30 that 990 was, so it will have a much weaker signal.

This morning my service is terrible. My "signal strength" has dropped
from about
68 to about 45 and "tweaking" doesn't improve it. So this brings to mind
the
question - should I attempt to switch to a new satellite before this
aging bird
finally bites the dust?.....for more info..... http://goo.gl/wKBmO

Should I bother???

In Feb 20*11* my sat dish and transmitter got damaged in a wind storm..
When I got back home in April I sent it in to the service center that I
bought it from... It has been there ever since.. he keeps saying it will be
ready in a month and then some part is missing...
My question... with all that has been going on with Hughes net Should I
keep waiting for the parts or just find a different way to access the net?
Last winter I was able to use BeamSpeed which is a radio link to a base
station.. Speed was about the same but with NO LIMITS... on usage...
The reason I am asking is besides the long wait... it appears that lots are
having trouble now ... more than before...
