We used Hughes Net with a 1 meter commercial antenna for about 5 years. Yes speeds could have been faster, but service and ability to lock on were good, at least initially. Once Hughes got their next generation system up (no mobile service) basic service deteriorated to horrible or worse. Not only that, based on my years of previous service I could tell when they were flat out lying to me, which they did with increasing frequency. We went to a Verizon hotspot and later to just a Verizon cell phone as a hotspot and have actually increased our speed and operability. In addition, our charges were vastly reduced.
Don't walk, RUN away from Hughes. Anyone want a 1 meter dish cheap?
