This process will work for all DirecWay and HughesNet Ku band modems and should only be used after all other troubleshooting options have failed as this process will de-commission your modem and require you to re-commission the modem in order to access the Internet. You will need to know the satellite you were connected or are tying to connect to, and know your SAN and PIN in order to re-commission your modem once this process has been completed!
- Connect a Windows based computer to your HughesNet Modem.
- Open a Command or DOS prompt on your computer (Click the RUN command and typing CMD and hit ENTER)
- Type “TELNET 192.168.0.1 1953″ and hit “ENTER.”
- Then type “RF” and hit “ENTER.”
- The modem should restart to factory settings
(NOTE: if you get an error when you enter the Telnet command, you may need to install the Windows Telnet application from the Add/Remove Programs section under Windows Programs)
