Slower than dialup after that.
Paying for the highest plan solves the problem. $130.00 per month for 50 gigs of data. Once you hit the data limit it chokes you back to nothing until the next billing cycle.

I'm on it now.
I live in the sticks also.
Nothing else available.
Heard nothing but horror stories about it beforehand,
But it was Hughes's net or nothing.
Signed up about 4 years ago, it came with the dish package.
10 gigabytes for the month, 80 bucks.
50 gigabytes between 2am and 8am.
When everybody was sleeping.
It's not high speed,but you can search the web
Just fine and watch YouTube or any other videos
Without buffering.
It gets the job done.
I always ran out of data before the month was up
When it was connected with dish.
From the kids watching videos all day.
It sucked but I wasn't paying for anymore data,
I just waited till the next month came along.
About 2 years ago when I renewed my dish tv.
They were no longer packaging Hughes net
With them.
They separated for whatever ever reason.
Instead of one bill, I had to separate ones.
I still pay Hughes the 80 bucks a month.
Automatically withdrawn from my account.
Never once talked to anybody at Hughes in
All these years.
Now I don't know why,but I'm not bothering to call and ask anybody about it.
Ever since they split from dish tv, I haven't run
Out of data one time. I have no idea why.
We use more now than we ever did.
Never hear a peep from Hughes.
I used to get a email when we used 75 percent
Of our data for the month.
Now I get nothing about nothing ever.
Once a month they take their 81 bucks
And that's the only communication we have.
And no,dial up is not even remotely close to it.
I'm perfectly happy with it until the cable
Company decides to run some lines out
In the sticks.Dieselboss and tucker Thank this. -
I guess since I have unlimited data on my Verizon smartphone I’ll have them hook up my hotspot thing again.
Anyone know how much Amazon Prime tv I can watch before they throttle me back? -
It’s terrible I’ve had it 2.5 yrs on 3 yr contract. Gonna burn ittucker Thanks this.
