What is Hughes Net?
HughesNet is among the largest satellite internet providers in the nation, not to be confused with Hughes Net. Hughes Net is a broadband satellite internet service provider utilizing two-way satellite systems - very secure, very fast, very reliable, and now more affordable than ever. Two-way satellite service is different than your satellite TV dish, which is one-way and only receives TV signals. Hughes Net satellite dishes both receive and send signals, download and upload. Download speeds range from 700 Kbps - 2.0 Mbps rather than the slow dial-up downloads of 28 Kbps - 56 Kbps. This incredibly fast difference is why HughesNet is the leader in satellite internet service!
How does HughesNet work?
HughesNet delivers high-speed Internet over satellite-not over your telephone line-so you can surf and talk at the same time. A certified HughesNet installer will connect your computer to a satellite modem and link it to a satellite dish (antenna) that's typically mounted on the roof of your home. The satellite dish sends and receives information (i.e., email, Web pages, files) over the Internet and delivers it your computer almost instantly!
HughesNet Service Plans
HughesNet offers five Service Plans to meet a variety of needs with downloads speeds of up to 2 Mbps. With our Home Service Plans you can surf the Internet at super-fast speeds or manage a small business from home. Our Business Service Plans offer small companies and large enterprises the ability to securely connect their locations with broadband Internet in areas where fiber, cable or DSL are not available.
