HughesNet changes the satellites and transponders (frequencies) used to connect to their satellites from time to time. Because of this it may be necessary to download the latest satellite configuration file into your DirecWay or HughesNet Ku Band Modem in order for you to successfully point and peak your system in fact you may not get any signal or pass crosspole until you have the latest configurations!
Here is the process for updating the satellite configuration file in your modem:
- Download the file from our website at www.montanasatellite.com/downloads
- Open the archive by double-clicking on the file and save it somewhere on your computer.
- Open a browser and enter http://192.168.0.1/fs/registration/setup.html and click the “Config File Upload” link.
- Browse to the file on your computer and continue. You will get a confirmation message that the upload is complete.
Your modem should now have the latest satellite, frequency, transponder information and listings in the drop down satellite list in the modem.
