This is the WORST Service I've ever had. The internet service is slower than slow I was unable to load Google or even Facebook on my computer most of the time. I contacted tech support on several occasions and the problem would be fixed for a short period of time only. In a few hours the service would slow to a crawl once again. After numerous calls to tech support I cancelled the service during the trial period. This company went ahead and literally stole $400.00 from me and said it was owed the cancellation fee. I cancelled during the trial period. It's been 3 weeks since I cancelled the service and I still have not received my $400.00 refund. DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER USING THIS COMPANY. The customer service and tech support staff are useless. I ended up tethering my cell phone AT&T to my laptop and found it to be 3-4 times faster than this lame service. DO NOT waste your money or your time with this company or its service.

As far as i'm concerned, hughesnet has false advertising. They say it's faster than dial up and it isn't. I've had dial up and it was much faster and cheaper than hughesnet. In all this internet service sucks and their fair access policy is bogus. I have direct tv and have no problems getting many channels, so why is this satalite sevice so horific and why do we have to pay too much money monthly for this horrible service. As soon as my contract runs out, I will be switching to verizon internet, much faster and cheaper.

Ok where to start . This company outsources 100 percent . Made in some foreign land where dictators are trying to keep control. Now on a more more serious note . I was never told by any of the people thy have working I'd pay 80 dllrs a month for service so poor. Fair rate act yeah right ,try fair rate trap. They trap u into thinking when u live in the boonies you have no other choice. I was told by Comcast I could pay to install a cable on my property which would not cost as much as you think. I did this rather than deal with the worst internet provider known . Please don't support out sourcing .this is what this company is known for. Dnt give in its a scam pure an simple . Call Comcast ask to install a wire on your property or simply move . There horrible an don't deserve to be affiliated with fine companies in the USA. Please pass the word on to others ..this is the only way to stop these people .

The first modem failed in one week. The speed is very poor at 300 Kilobytes per second, a wired DSL connection gives 10 MEGAbytes per second, thirty times faster. I cannot use a VOIP phone on the service because the uplink speed is far too slow and the voice becomes very choppy. The internet connection is bearable but not good. I don't recommend this service.

Hughes has the absolute worse e-mail service I have ever seen. Very little web surfing and then, you're subjected to their fair access policy and the speed is no better than dial up. In short, they are not worth the high cost. I have an ipad with AT&T 3G at less than a third of Hughes monthly cost. Dropping Hughes July 2011 and do not recommend them at all.
