Checking download allowance status
Note: The Download Allowance Status link and screen are present on your HX90
only if they have been enabled by the NOC. Whether they are enabled or not
depends on your service plan.
To ensure fair Internet access for all HughesNet subscribers, some HughesNet
subscriber service plans include a limit on how much information can be downloaded
daily. If a subscriber exceeds the download limit, the router’s browsing and
download speed is temporarily reduced.
To view your download allowance status:
Click the
Download Allowance Status
link on the System Control Center home
page or in the left panel of other System Control Center pages.
The router displays a screen that shows your daily download allowance and the
amount of allowance remaining in bar graph form. The example screen shown in
Figure 22 indicates that the subscriber has 100% of the daily allowance left to
use. As the download allowance is used, the green area grows smaller.
