Hughes Network Systems HNS9101 Manuel D’Utilisation

 

Use Static Public Network IP Address: If this box is not checked, the Satellite 
IP Modem uses an IP address automatically assigned by the network during the period 
when the Modem connects to the network. This setting is the default. If this box is 

checked, the Modem uses the IP address you enter in the Static Public Network IP 
Address field that follows. You should only check this box and enter an IP address if 

directed to do so by your Service Provider. 
DNS Host 1: Primary Host Domain Name Service (DNS) Address. An IP address is 
required in this field and will be supplied by your Service Provider. 
DNS Host 2: Secondary Host DNS Address. 
Service Provider Security Enable: If this box is checked, you can enter a User 

ID and Password for authentication between the Satellite IP Modem and your 
Service Provider. Your Service Provider will let you know if this step is required and 

give you the necessary information. 
APN Enable: If use of multiple Internet Service Providers is required, you can 
check this box and enter the appropriate Access Point Name (APN) value. You 

should modify these fields only if directed to do so by your Service Provider. 
Apply / Cancel: If you want the values you have entered to be processed, click the 

Apply button, exit the Control Pad and Launch Pad, and reboot your computer. 
You will also need to turn the Satellite IP Modem off and then on again so that the 
new settings can take effect. If you want the values you have entered to be ignored 
because of error or uncertainty, click the Cancel button and the Network Settings 
remain as they were with no reboot required. 

 

The Service Provider Login Information  screen is a subset of Network Settings.  
Utilize this screen only if you have been given the necessary information from your 

Service Provider. 
To change the Service Provider Password, you are required to enter the Old 
Service Provider Password, the New Password, and the New Password again 
for confirmation. Apply or Cancel the changes. 

The Advanced Settings screen is a subset of Network Settings. 
Satellite Search Method: These are two radio buttons which determine the 
method of locking onto the satellite. The default method is normal. This is the 
method to use unless your Service Provider specifies the full method. The full 

method takes longer and utilizes more resources since it will search all possible 
frequencies for Regional BGAN service. This full search can take up to 20 minutes.
