Confirming Internet connectivity
If you lose access to the Internet, this could be a result of a temporary Internet
problem or a problem with the site you are trying to access. If you lose Internet
connectivity, try these troubleshooting steps:
1. Open a command prompt on a computer connected to the router.
2. Ping the HughesNet web server:
a. Type
ping
www.hughesnet.com
(or other server address provided by the
customer).
b. Press
Enter
.
If the ping test succeeds, there may be a temporary problem with the web site
you originally tried to access. Wait a while and then try to access the web site
again. If the ping test fails, continue with these steps.
3. Ping the test server:
a. Type
ping 198.77.116.39
.
b. Press
Enter
.
If the ping test is successful but you still cannot browse the Internet, complete
the procedures in

If the ping test fails, contact your service provider for assistance.

If the DNS address is correct, wait a while and try to access a web site again.
There may be a temporary Internet connection outage. If you are still cannot
access a web site after waiting, complete the procedures in

on page 51. If the DNS address is not correct, contact your
service provider for assistance.
Checking for viruses and firewall issues
If you have confirmed all connections but still cannot access the Internet, check the
computer (and all other computers on the same network) for viruses. If you find a
virus, delete or disable it, then try to browse the Internet again.
If you are using a firewall, refer to the firewall documentation and make sure none of
its settings are blocking access to either the Internet or the Hughes servers. Make
sure you are using the latest version of any anti-virus and/or firewall software.
