Satellite internet out in the stix

I work for Hughesnet now - installing satellite internet, if you'd like to get in on the recovery internet you need to qualify by verifying you have no cable internet available (roadrunner, and the like), verizon, att or highspeed DSL, and then the gov't will help pay for the installation and equipment costs. Contact me and I can put you in contact with our staff to walk you through it. If you don't qualify for the gov't program, there's some rebates and such to take advantage of as well.

Cheers peeps

I hated the F.A.P. and the speed kinda sucked anyway.

Not to mention expensive as hell...

I just now got a rudamentary dsl running through 3 smart coils. Way happier with this than I was with hughes.

Used to sell and install HN, as well as the previous Direcway/DirecPC. It sucks compared to cable or dsl, or even WISP. but if dial up is your only other option it's night and day

Fair Access Policy = download limits, I understand where you're coming from. I have TWC and I've been on the phone with tech support diagnosing slow internet in the evenings - they have identified it as people mass downloading netflix, videos and such. 6p - 12 midnight I might as well just go to bed instead of using roadrunner. They're not planning on splitting the card until the end of summer. TWC fail. FAP is supposed to keep the bandwith available so this doesn't happen on their setup.

My mom has Hughes net for a while and it was so damn expensive and she would blow through the limit pretty easily and then wouldn't be able to do her online schooling. I beleive she ended up having to get a business account or something and it was something stupid like $200 a month and even then it wasn't any faster or much better.

So wait, the government will pay for my free internet porn at home? What am I doing wrong iwth my life, living paycheck to paycheck, when I could be on WIC, sit at home all day, and now get free internet and porn. My life is too hard, I just need to suck more at it and get in on all this free stuff my taxes are paying for every paycheck.
