But what if they are caching stuff, e.g. foxnews, some popular video clips, etc. and delivering them to the user without going through the satellite loop? I don't know what they are doing but they claim to be "optimizing" the system with their caching. I'm not concerned about the trivial usage attributable to DNS. I just want it to work. As it has been I've had to restart the Viasat modem several times a week, an annoyance I will have to put up with it seems, my experience has been that such things eventually change, hopefully for the better.
Don't exclude the possibility that the modem itself is flipping out. My DSL started going down once a week or so, some years ago. Powercycling the modem always put me back online. Troubleshooting with the ISP wasn't very productive. I ended up buying a new modem, and that was it. The old modem is still sitting in a dusty cabinet, and I actually pulled it out, in a pinch, when I suspected a problem with my current modem.
