Satellite Internet
Does anyone out there have real life experience with Hughesnet or Dishnet? I would be interested in RV or home usage. Are these reliable and as fast as advertised? We do not have access to cable at...

Verizon coverage is so good now, unless you're camping in a canyon I don't see why you'd need this.
I find this funny. I live in the east side of Anchorage and can't get through on either of our Verizon phones half of the time. Then when I do, 50% of the calls are dropped. Internet on the phones is very slow.
Just recently did the east coast of the States and Verizon didn't work near as well as they do out West. AT&T was somewhat better, but still poor. You couldn't walk around while talking and if you tried your mail, you should have a book in the other hand to read. Very disappointed in both carriers back east.
Having said that, I think they'll be better than a satellite connection.
