System Control Center
The System Control Center is a set of screens and links you can use to monitor your
broadband service and troubleshoot the satellite modem in the event of a problem.
The System Control Center provides access to system status, configuration
information, and online documentation. You access the System Control Center
through a web browser on a computer connected to the satellite modem. Use the
System Control Center to find system information for configuring networks or to
check system performance if the satellite modem does not seem to be functioning
properly.
Accessing the System Control Center
To access the System Control Center, a computer with a web browser installed must
be connected to the satellite modem's LAN port. The System Control Center web site
is hosted on the modem, consequently the computer does not have to be connected
to the Internet.
To open the System Control Center, double-click the System Control Center shortcut
on your computer desktop, or follow these steps:
1. Open a web browser such as Internet Explorer.
2. In the browser address bar, type
www.systemcontrolcenter.com
and press Enter .
System Control Center home page
The System Control Center home page, as shown in Figure 2, contains numerous links
to satellite modem features and important information regarding operation of your
satellite modem.
