Re: so you don't like hns fap?
That doesn't sound so bad. It's more like the old Hughes FAP; things slow until your bucket refills. Much better than automatically being screwed for a full 24 hours. |

| said by processauto  :what struck me, and no one else has commented on, is their statement that repeated FAP violators may have thier service terminated. You beat me to it. I was busy trying to C&P my last months usage data into Excel, to see how much I used last month. (Not an easy task.)
1278.27 down last month.
WB Value pak allows 2300up and 7500 down?
Less than 1300 in the down direction and Hughes took 24 hours away from me with their FAP policy. Also, it appears with WB, one can use their system at around dial up speeds when fapped, the bucket refills while fapped and perhaps better yet, it looks like they attempt to warn you (via E-mail?)and if one does not heed the warnings (repeated abusers) they take harsher measures. Sounds more friendly and/or reasonable to me.
I only used 1278mb down last month and was crippled (FAPPED)at a potentially dangerous weather period. (Dangerous enough that I was keeping a close eye on it.)
I'm only complaining about Hughes fap, as there are no warnings, there's no way I DL 171mb of data while my system was down 75% of that hour as Hughes says and the sytem was worthless for the next 24 hours.
Sorry if I misstated anything. Anyone, please correct me if I errored in my conclusions.
