Mountain Home, ID | Re: Hughes customer service and other options HughesNet (satellite ISP) and DirecTV have nothing to do with each other. That marriage broke up long ago. Your experience is not news, but rather the norm when it comes to Hughes' "customer service". Glad you found something that works for you. | |

Centerburg, OH | Can you use an air card with a normal desktop pc? I'm having a hard time deciding if I should shell out for something else (if I can find something that works decent) or just bend over and take it in the shorts. | |

| Re: Hughes customer service and other options I asked the same question online, here is what I was told.

Here is an adapter to use a PC Card on a PC. I'd recommend USB so you can situate where the antenna is without spending $200+ for an external antenna kit. »www.quatech.com/public/googpcdri···dsSearch
Of course, there are many others. That's just the first result I came by. | |

| Re: Hughes customer service and other options Thanks. I'll check out the link. I know I'll probably need a booster of some sort as I'm a few miles outside of sprint's evdo coverage area. Again my thanks. I'll do some research and see what I find out.  Even if it's not good enough to serve out pages from my linux box at least I may get a strong enough signal to make on call a little easier.
