Re: Hughes lousy service

Piggie, you've got it absolutely right. HN is for 'some' people, essentially those with low usage. I had 4000 for 3.5 years, upgraded to 7000 a year ago, and there WERE times when it ran decently, but it was extremely erratic, the FAP was a total PITA, their tech support was terrible, and it really was not a very good value for the money.

I'm a big baseball fan, as you can no doubt tell from my avatar, and the FAP would cut me off around the middle of the 3rd inning. Now that I've switched to Millenicom Wireless, I can watch an entire game and still not get throttled down. This is a HUGE advantage for me, but for others, it wouldn't be. What do they say? One man's meat...
