@HughesNet Hughesnet does not guarantee speeds. You could have 15mbs for a couple months and then have 0 for the next year. This is acceptable and okay to Hughesnets. They will not do anything but tell you that because they donât guarantee speeds they arenât liable to fix it.

my ****ing auto sign in for rockstar apparently is no longer valid so instead of byp***ing it and launching from steam I have to reenter all of my **** just to be told Rockstar couldn't connect because HughesNet isn't worth the money being put down for it

@HughesNet 1. Speeds arenât guaranteed and thusly 0.0mbs is perfectly okay and nothing to fix. You can not cancel the contract because of this, thusly youâll pay $500+ to cancel for 0mbs.
2. Data caps and money to buy more data (aka tokens) is their bread & butter to the scam. $30 for 10gb

@HughesNet Iâve had no internet for almost 7 months now and youâve lied so much. I use Hughesnet for work and home and now Iâm on food stamps because 7 months later you still havenât done anything to fix the m*** outages but youâve been adamant about being quiet about it

@BigBoyVol Not yet, but it is available for pre-order. The real problem is I'm in an AT&T area with 30 year old phone lines they are in no hurry to replace. I have Hughesnet, but I play a lot of video games, and 100 GB isn't enough for keeping everything updated.

@alabamaartist64 @rashestpuppy6 @GreenTextRepost Starlink is much closer to earth than those standard satellite providers, much better latency. My relative has it and we play video games no problem.
Sure fiber is way better, but rural areas have either hughesnet or Starlink and Starlink is way better.

@WSPate @HughesNet Yes, this is normal. Thousands can go with broken gateways for over 6 months, and hide the truth. Hughesnet doesnât care, they still get paid.
I was once told by a higher up âyou can have a certain speed for years and then have less than 1mbs and itâs just what it isâ

@SubscriptPirate @thtlibertychick The only way to solve the latency problem is with leo satellites (like StarLink). Cos like HughesNet & ViaSat will never solve latency with geostationary orbit satellites (unless they figure out how to make light travel faster than the speed of light).
