Right now they are pimping their new Gen4 technology, and you can get the basic package for less than I am paying. Plus you get the installation for free with this promo.


Sat does not hold a candle to DSL or Cable, but I guess it's better than tin cans and string.





HUGHES NET SUCKKKS SADAM ACKMED APU'S TECH SERVICE SUPPORT CAMEL BALLS.


Like others, I'm rural with no DSL or cable in street. I put up with HughesCanSuckMe for 36 months, and had 32 troubleshooting service calls to tech support in India and Philipinnes.



Finally fired them (only took like 3 months of getting their run-around)

Tried AT&T wi-fi, didn't have the signal strength and returned it 3 days later.

VERIZON 4G Mi-Fi Jetpack 4620 kicks butt. I'm on a 18 gig a month plan for both Razr Smart Phone and home internet.


Speedtest.net from 2 minutes ago. It hauls assss.


Verizon kicks butt, do a google search on the 100,000's of thousand pissed off HughesNOT service issues.
