What if my computer did not come with a Network Interface Card (NIC)? How can I make it satellite internet ready?
Many computers can be upgraded with a 10/100 Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC). If you are comfortable with opening your computer and installing hardware, most Ethernet NICs can be self-installed. Check with your computer manufacturer for more information on the right Ethernet NIC for your system. Make sure your NIC is configured for “auto-negotiate.” return to faq directory If my system has the DW4000 modem, will it still work now that HughesNet has launched its next-generation satellite dsl modem? Yes. If you choose not to upgrade your HughesNet modem to the HN7000S, your DW4000 or DW6000 transmit and receive modems will still function and are supported by HughesNet. Should I upgrade to the HN7000S or HN9000S series system from an older DW4000 system? Upgrading from a DW4000 modem to the next-generation HN7000S or 9000S modem is a good idea if you would like to network more than one computer to your HughesNet high-speed connection , and you want faster service speed.
