 | Hughesnet Worst I have had Hughes for the last 5 years paying $79.95 per month after purchasing the equipment. The only reason I had this was I lived in a rule area where cable or DSL was not a choice. I finally found a replacement that works alot better and is less expensive at $50 per month. Check out Air Cards. I got a 3G US Cellular card Air Card. This is nearly as fast as cable (I had this when I lived in the city) when you have an excellant signal. I really tested it today when we had a constant downpore of rain and the signal stayed excellant. Try that with Hughes! This is far superior and you can take it with you on the road. You can even get a MoFi wireless router and plug the Air Card into the USB port to give you wireless throughout the home. It also offers an option to adapt an external antenna in case you have sigal troubles. I sent Hughes an email telling them to keep their eyes on Blockbusters reason for filing chapter 11. It's called greed and not being competitive with quality service. Pay more and get less. Hughes will be there soon. |
