    Good morning jlantz,

     

    Please check your PMs, as I've sent you the contact information for your dealer doing the Gen 5 upgrade for you.

Hughes net meters back all of their signals... no one actually gets what is advertised.  Gen 4 gave me 1.5mb streaming speed ... not enough to view netflix.   Gen 5 is not better... except they promise more speed but deliver none of it.

First, Hughesnet doesn't "meter back" anything until one is in FAP.  

 

Secondly, my Gen5 speed below.  If that's not delivering, I'd like to know what is.
