Dude, you have been away so long you don't even know what you are talking about with HN anymore. Yes it used to be terrible and it still is not great by no means but the speeds I listed are the norm now whether you believe it or not and since I have posted that they have also doubled the speeds on the KU side of things as well. People are regularly getting at least twice the plan speeds except during the free time and at the beggining of the free time for about the first three hours then you get around your plan speed while it is crowded and then it go's back up as peoples downloads finish in the last three hours. Also they now have a forum with active techs and represenatives and they are going to work on the FAP next.
As far as seeing far more complaints than compliments, that argument doesn't fool anyone for the simple reason it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that if things are working fine you don't go looking for help and thus 99% (well probably actually higher) never even see these forums unless someone tells them about it and most of the rest do have problems, google those problems and wala here they are to ask for help and more often than not vent after reading other peoples posts like this review. So the truth is that if you could get HN to run a poll on thier home page I would bet that you would find hands down and overwhelming majority of customers would say they are happy with the service they have.
To keep bumping a bad review 2 years after the fact is wrong in my book and I don't really believe BBR should alow it after it gets 6 months old or so. -- HughesNet elite plan/.74 dish w/1watt trans. / 9000 modem / 3 computers on a linksy's wired network
