Your PC is opening 

large numbers of TCP 
connections.  The 
Thuraya IP Voyager

 

is 

running out of resources.

 

Applications on 
your PC are 
generating 
excessive Internet 
connections. 

Check your PC for applications 
that may open large numbers 
of connections and disable 
these applications. 
If the problem continues, 
contact your Service Provider.

TCP connection 

resources are depleted 
due to your PC 
opening excessive 
connections.  You must 
restart your terminal to 

regain service to the 
network. 

Excessive TCP 
connections by 
the PC have 
consumed all 
available 
connection 
resources in the 
terminal.  The 
terminal cannot 
recover from this 
error. 

Clean up PC applications that 
are consuming excessive TCP

Thuraya IP Voyager

 

and try 

again.  If the problem continues,
