We're considering purchasing the Hughes Net system for the house with the free installation, then buying another tripod and dish to take on the road. The Hughes net equipement; router etc, is portable so we can load that in the trailer and take it with us like we can do with the Direct TV recievers.
Be very careful! The current HughesNet (Gen 4) system is NOT portable. Period!
To use a Hughesnet service in a mobile configuration you will have to ensure they set you up with an HN7000S modem which likely means they will not do a free installation if you can get them to agree to it at all.
Assuming you work all of that out, I am pretty sure I remember that the Ooma system will not work with the slow speeds and high latency of satellite internet.
