| You have all saved someone from HughesNet
After reading all the reivews, i decided to cancel my HughesNet order. i know i could have taken my chances, but all the anger in these posts were toooooo scary! I would like to comment on the fact that it took me 45 minutes and 5 different phone numbers (all of which gave me a different number i already had) to cancel the order. Thank you!!! |

| Way to go Paige!
I am getting a T1 installed here at the house in a few weeks. HN is gone, and we are throwing party!!!
I am so tired of throwing a hundred bucks out the window every month for what I now consider a dial up connection. That is when it works! Reboot the 7000 3-4 times a week, and wait an hour or more for everything to come on line.
Then watch everything stall to a snails pace after downloading my email! Even right now, I went over to the Detroit Freepress website, it took well over two minutes to download, and was still working when I just hit a link.
This is dial up speed!
I wish I could get cell, DSL or cable here. A T1 is my only solution at present. Sure it costs some coin, $500 a month. But it will be worth it in my book! |

Paige, glad I saved you. What it took to cancel is not unusual either. Hughes was just ok, before their new FAP policy. Now you step just one byte over the line and they for all purposes turn off your internet. Wise choice. Sooner or later some other broadband will get to your place.
Glad I saved just one person.
