Dick, there are 2 distinct systems. Hughes is owned by Echo Star, the parent company of Dish, which is why you see the Dish Net system advertised as a package with Dish. The RV system is great, in that it gives you internet almost anywhere in North America, with the proper satellite. HOWEVER, the RV system and the home system are NOT compatible, in that the home system uses a very narrow spot beam, while the mobile system uses a broad beam. The Gen 4 home system is relatively fast, while the mobile system has a very long latent time lag and can be relatively slow. We have a motosat system on our RV and use it when we are working the patch or traveling in Mexico. Otherwise we use a hotspot, as it is much faster.
Internet and TV can be received on the same "internet" dish, if you are assigned to the correct satellite. Our system uses the same dish, as we are assigned to a Satmex satellite and use the BOW for the TV channels.
