Disabling TurboPage in HughesNet 7000 & 9000 Modems

For users with the white 9000 modems, this is an easy process...You simply access the System Control Center. Once you're there, click the little person near the top center of the page.

Now in the left column, click on Turbo Page>Control>Enable/Reset

On the box that opens on your screen...put a dot in disable, and click OK.

When done you will get a message stating, "Command Executed"...and you're done!

To turn it back on, simply follow the steps again, and enable it. HOWEVER, you may not need to do this depending on how long you chat. After a period of time the Turbo Page software within your modem...will turn itself back on. I've noticed at times on IMVU that if I turned Turbo Page on Manually AFTER I logged into the client, actions within the chat, such as Hugging or Kissing, I could not see take place on my screen...though the person I was chatting with DID see the action. Sooooo...If you notice this happening to you, you may need to disable Turbo Page again....ALTHOUGH, since Turbo Page is coming back on by itself...there might be a possibility that you won't get affected at all. (Keeps my fingers crossed for that...will have to test at a later time.)

For the Gray 7000 modems the process is a bit more involved, though not entirely difficult....I found this FAQ on a website called DSLReports.com. They are a VERY REPUTABLE site and have been around for ages. You want to find some of the biggest techie geeks around...look no further than there. Laughing

Anyways, to disable TurboPage in a 7000 modem, just follow these steps: (This has been copied and pasted from DSLReports.com...Their FAQ located here. http://www.dslreports.com/faq/13533

To set up Turbo Page Server (TPS) bypass mode: You need to statically assign either (1) an invalid IP address as the Turbo Page server in the modem software, or (2) an invalid port. The valid port for HughesNet web accelerators is 86, all others are believed to be invalid. Since using a valid IP but an invalid port can be disruptive to the IP you choose, the method of assigning an invalid IP address is the one described here. Browse to the "HN7x00S Advanced Configuration and Statistics" page and click on the Turbo Page Configuration link on the left side. In the HN7x00S modem click on the "Advanced Cfg" page on the left side. The page says that the "Turbo Page Advanced Configuration is disabled", but you'll still be able to set up bypass mode. Put a dot next to "Use Turbo Page Server configured below", enter a "bogus" server IP address such as 10.10.10.10 (any address in the Private IP address range will do), port 86, and press the "Teardown TurboPage Connection" button. The unit will try to connect to the bogus server the next time you start browsing to sites on the internet. The Event Logs accessible on the "DW7000 Advanced Configuration and Statistics" page will show that the DW7000 attempts to connect 3 times, fails 3 times, and then goes into bypass mode (a straight TCP connection). This takes about 35 - 45 seconds from the first connection attempt to finally going into bypass mode, so there's a 35 - 45 second lag on the initial browsing attempt to a Web site on the internet. Subsequent browsing to sites will have no lag ... for a while. The DW7000 unit will try to reconnect to the Turbo Page server at the NOC periodically, and a lag in any browsing to a Web site during the reconnect attempt will be noticeable (and annoying).

To get the HN7x00S out of bypass mode: Browse to the "HN7x00S System Control Center" and press the Restart HN7x00S link. The HN7x00S will reboot and will connect to a Web acceleration proxy the next time you attempt to browse.

I have HughesNet 9000 modem, I still have too to disable it sometimes to get on the client because if I don't it will do the exact same thing. That you are sign on but your not there at all.

Have you changed your firewall or anti-virus? Even if you haven't check them to make sure they didn't get re-set to block IMVU.
