Hi
I own a 1W oval Hughesnet dish .75m and I am completely lost about the orientation and activation process.
I am looking for some consultor or dealer who help me to make a good orientation and sell me an activation and
off course an high speed monthly plan.
Regards!

You mentioned the outdoor unit; dish and transmitter. They're no good by themselves, unless/until you get a serviceable indoor unit (modem). Please advise if you're in North America. If yes, the HN9000 IDU is paired with the Ka-band ODU. If yes -  the HN7000S IDU is paired with the Ku-band ODU.

Hi kocca
I am in Central America. Sorry for not mentioned the modem. I have a HN7000S (new).
Can you help me with some steps to follow?
Greetings.

You may have wasted your money. Generally, a 74cm dish and 1w transmitter is too small for Ku-band HughesNet in Central America. If you have the wrong outdoor unit (ODU) there's no point in going through the steps on how to set it up. I can be more specific though, if I know exactly where in Central America - your latitude/longitude would be best - and in which direction(s) you may have potential line of sight obstructions (buildings, trees, hills, mountains, etc).

Hi we offer service with our teleport in Panama , for HughesNet. In this case for your hns7000 , but you will need at minimum 2 watts transmitter and 1.2 meters antenna to get the best performance

hi there, just to clarify the 2 Watt is a must to be
purchases with the HN7000s as the HN is not universal.

We can sell to you the IDU (HN modem) and the ODU (buc-lnb).
Just let me know if you need more information.
