Re: Slow Internet Connection Sharing

Hi Kevin,

I do not use Microsoft's ICS, because I am on a Wireless System at home
using a Wireless Router, that is wired directly to my Cable Modem.

I think the only way that will work, is to employ the use of a Wireless
Router between the Modem and Computer.

Get a Wireless Nic Card for the Laptop. It doesn't need to be expensive,
unless you need the speed.

I have already preformed those troubleshooting steps.

This is the set up:

Two Computer in a on a home network. One computer connected directly to
the
Hughesnet (dirceway) modem via USB. This computer also has a NIC card
that
is connected to local network that has a switch (no router). There is a
second computer connected network that accesses the internet via Microsoft's
Internet Connection Sharing (ICS).

I can get to hotmail.com from the computer connected directly to Hughesnet
modem but can NOT LOG IN so the hotmail problem is on the computer
connected
directly to the modem (no router).

A second issue is that all internet access is slow. The computer
connected
directly to the modem is slow but useable. The second computer that uses
ICS
is so slow it is unusable (websites time out). In trouble shooting the
slow
issue I have taken a laptop and plugged it in where the second computer is
and receive the same results. I get good ping time response to the first
computer but anything outside the local network is very high ping time
response. From my office network I can ping google.com and receive about
36ms when I ping it from the home network I receive about 875ms response
time.

I have also taken the second computer to the office and put it on another
network and it is able to connect to Hotmail.com and MSMessenger and
internet
access is normal.

Thank you for your help this is a complicated problem

Hi Kevin,

From home, can you log into Hotmail and Messenger? Do you have a
Laptop
computer, that you can use at home and make sure you can use Messenger
and
Hotmail at home? Then take it to work and without making any changes,
test
the connection.

Is the Router involved with Hughesnet? Can you do a Factory Reset on
that router, then log into the Router's settings to restore the Router's
settings you were using, using a Wired Computer, to restore the settings
for
the Wireless Internet?

I have a Comcast for my home internet that is how I have a Comcast
account.
I just used the Comcast email account to test the system to see if it
the
problem was a hotmail problem or an internet email problem.

I am able to get to the log on screen for hotmail and put in my user
name
and password but it will not let me long in.

I have taken one of the computers from the location that I am having
the
problem and put it on another network and I am able to long in the
hotmail
and Messenger. I believe it is a Hughesnet (direcway) problem but I
can
not
get any support from them. I was hopping to find someone on this forum
that
has run into a similar problem that could point me in the correct
direction.

Hi Kevin,

Curious. How can you have a Comcast E-mail Web-mail Account
without
being a Customer?

As for Hotmail, it changed, from Hotmail to Windows Live Hotmail.

If you click this link : http://www.msn.com/

It takes you to MSN. If you click Hotmail, it takes you to:
http://login.live.com/login.srf?wa=wsignin1.0&rpsnv=10&ct=1192808696&rver=4.5.2130.0&wp=MBI&wreply=http:%2F%2Fmail.live.com%2Fdefault.aspx&id=64855

Sorry for the confusion. Internet connection is Hughesnet
(direcway).
I
have an email account w/ Comcast that I used to test the system. I
was
not
able to log in to hotmail so I used my Comcast webmail as a test and
I
was
able to log in. Originally I thought it might be a https issue but
I
was
able to log into a bank website.

I have been struggling with this issue for a few months. When I
first
started working on it I updated the MS Messanger so I think it is
the
lastest
version, if not is it one version back so I don't think that is an
issue.
I
have tried to use it on three different computers on that network w/
out
successes.

Hi Kevin,

Not completely understanding you.
Not long in, but it is login into Comcast.

Is Comcast, your ramp onto the Super Highway (Internet) or is
Hughesnet?
What is Hughesnet?

Antivirus is and was up to date and runs a full scan every night
on
both
computers. One computer is connected directly to the Hughesnet
hardware
via
usb and has a nic connected to a Lan. On the lan is another
computer
that
uses Internet Connection Sharing to access the internet. I am
experianceing
some issues on the computer connected directly to the Hughesnet
like
I
can
go
to www.hotmail.com but I can't long in. I can go to Comcast and
long
into
my
webmail. I have tried to long on to MS Messanger to establish a
remote
control session but Messanger times out. When I run the
troubleshooting
wizard it tells me there is something wrong with the gateway. I
contacted
Hugesnet and was assured that the gateway was configured properly
because
I
could get to other internet sites.

Hi Kevin,

Did you run an anti-virus scan? You have not mentioned any
Router
being
used. Do you have a Router and have you reset the Router and
restored
its
settings?

I have been dealing with a few problems with a very slow
computers
and
Hughesnet. I have two computers in a location that does not
have
any
other
option than Hughesnet Satellite for "high speed" internet.
The
computer
that
is connected to Hughesnet's equipment is slow accessing and
using
the
internet but it is useable. The second computer accesses the
internet
via
Microsoft's internet connection sharing. Under most
circumstances
the
second
computer is so slow that it almost unseable. I have contacted
hugesnet
and
all I get for support is that they check the speed on the
computer
connected
to their equipment and determine that they get a certain
amount
of
signal
and
have determined that it is working properly. As a last resort
we
tried
to
Reset Internet Explorer Setting. The computer now will not
access
the
internet at all. When you launch IE7 it tries to get to
Microsoft's
IE7
set
up site but the computer is so slow that it times out and will
not
let
me
change the home page on anything else until it runs the one
time
set
up.
