cawski Posted January 22, 2005 CID Share Posted January 22, 2005 In reading different posts to the forum I often see references to the satellite that folks are connected to . How do you find that information on a DW6000 ? Is there any one particular satellite that provides better download/upload speeds? By the way I live in Mt. Airy, Md about 20 miles from Hughes HDQT's in Germantown, Md. I have had a DW4000 and was always satisfied. Upgraded to DW6000 for ease in sharing Internet over home network but Speeds both up and down are much, much lower. As everyone says DW Tech Support is a Joke but good information on this forum.

fikester Posted January 22, 2005 CID Share Posted January 22, 2005 Could you post an upload and download speed here? I'm in western MD also pointed at the Horizons1 bird. Seems an average download for a [glow=red,2,300]DW6000[/glow] is around 1Mbps and uploads average about 45.....commercial 6000 speeds will be higher. My downloads are very close to the 1Mbps 24/7.... uploads and web browsing speeds differ as the wind, which is . Hopefully they will increase in the near future?
